Tissot 2461

I have a Tissot  2461 movement which is very clean and runs well. The only problem is the date does'nt

change. Narrowed it down to the jumper spring or lack of it. I'm on my second jumper spring now. Can anyone

assist me in how this little spring is fitted because the easiest way to lose them is if you dont know where they

go and you keep lifting them out. I presume it fits in the groove of the little cover but which way round does it go.

I see to have tried every way but still it won't work. Any help would be appreciated

The spring fits into the small plate, install the plate with the spring lying on top of the date wheel. Then use a oiler or sharp tool to push the spring further under the plate so that it contacts the date wheel correctly.

This is  what works for me!

Thanks guys but can you tell me how the spring fits in relation to the little bar. I presume the square shaped piece of the spring

faces the date wheel and does it fit on top of the bar pushing into the date wheel?

Thanks Chris

    • You could also use a very fine artist's brush to brush between the coils.  If you get a size 00 or even 000 that should be small enough for convenience, and with bristles so fine that they are incapable of damaging the hairspring.  Get a good one though, like Windsor-Newton or similar.  I have never had a Windsor-Newton brush shed on my art or other work.  You want a soft brush that will not shed.
    • Sounds interesting but how do you push the button if you’re holding both ends? the large current draw overheats after 3-5 seconds and the thermister triggers. A great tool for magnetizing things but I’ve not be able to ever demag anything with it because the emf is so strong it pulls the item off center (down or up).   I paid $89 bucks for it from  CAS-KER, if someone on the board wants it I’d gladly sell it for $25 plus shipping (probably US only otherwise postal costs are prohibitive). Just sent me a note offline.
    • Hi. First thing to do is measure your oil movement as the vx32E and the 43 look very similar but one is a couple of mill smaller the vx32E.  Also the canon pinion heights differ attached tech sheets for 7N22. And  VX43, check details on the sheets. 7N22A_29A_33A_42A_43A.pdf VX43.pdf Hattori VX32E - Specification.pdf Hattori VX32E - Disassemble.pdf

    • I was spitting out flowers and leaves for 10 minutes,  fortunately 3  people saw it and promptly whipped out their phones to film the quick " nothing to see here " recovery  🤣🤣
