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

    • attached is the tech /parts sheet. .   Can one ask how come it’s full of water. After being told that the waterproofing was not guaranteed.  Problem being electronics don’t mix especially withe the power source being attached.  You may be lucky but I should look out for a replacement movement or working donor to rob the movement from.

    • I thought this may be "right" forum to post this. After 7 months out in Switzerland I got my Navitimer back from Breitling. I had sent it off since its 20 years old to have a complete overhaul done... Nothing major wrong, but I did notice this seconds sundial skipping thingy.... $1300 later and 7 months later, I notice the 'skips' are still here unless the chronometer is engaged. I would think this is likely the hand binding up and maybe clearance with the dial, but at any rate Im interested as to whether this is something I should be returning the watch to Breitling for and insisting on being fixed. See below - 1 minute or so of regular running and then 1 minute with the chronograph engaged.  
    • A friend of mine just gave me an old pocket watch. The case is in very bad condition but the movement itself seems to be in a quite good shape. I can't identify which movement is this, since I have to find a missing winding stem. I attach few photos in a case somebody would be able to give some hints.  Thank's folks
    • Hello everyone, I recently received a request for advice on purchasing a vintage watch, a Waltham A-11 ORD. DEPT. I asked if they were aware that these types of watches have radioactive hands and dials... but they had no idea what I was talking about. So, I thought of creating a video that could help recognize them, starting from the distinctive details to using a Geiger counter. I hope you like it and find it useful for those venturing into the world of vintage watches. Bye.
