Ok so let's see if I can explain this and it make sence. The wheel with the very small teeth goes between the crown wheel and the ratchet wheel where there is a spare jewel hole. The pawl the thing with the two wheel driving prongs on goes in the centre off your bridge underneath it on a little peg with the longer of the two prongs to your left as you lòok at it. It is then placed on your train wheel bridge with the two prongs of the pawl either side of the wheel with very small teeth make sure pivots are aligned and screw down. Screw down rotor and hopefully your autowinding. Hope that made sence.

Looks like a Seiko set up? If you can learn a little how a Seiko 6309 work i think you can put this together also? Check seiko 6306/6309 on youtube?

thanks for your help but although based on the seiko, parts are slightly different and the pawl wont stick to the bridge so is difficult to line bridge up over the pawl.think there could be something missing!

The small part is nothing to do with the rotor mech it looks like a roller table jewel and half a staff. Your last picture is the one i was interested in the pawl jewel fits over that little post now remove the bearing housing 3 screws so you can see the pawl underneath when you've screwed the bridge down after putting the pawl and other wheel in place place the bearing housing back on top rotating it until the post engages with the pawl jewel hole then rotate until the 3 screw holes ate aligned and bobs your uncle.

      Parts sourcing for FHF 180 movement

      By JohnR725 · Posted

      I am puzzled by something a snipped out something from your image and what exactly disassemble tell us? my confusion is the symbol for FHF looks like image I have below year symbol as a star and righted this instant are not finding what that means? I suppose we could use the fingerprint system to verify it really is what it claimed to be. Size itself is really interesting there's almost no watches in that particular size. Then were missing details in the photograph above like diameter of movements to verify it really is the size and are missing the setting components.   went to the bestfit book looking at the symbols didn't see it. Look at the link below I did find it back to the bestfit book and yes it really is there https://reference.grail-watch.com/documents/history-of-ebauches-sa/ then bestfit book says lists the size as 10 1/2. one of the problems with vintage watches is finding parts yes a donor watch would be good.

      Oiling Dubois Depraz chrono module pivots (Omega Speedmaster Reduced)

      Actually, this could be the issue. Drag from the module could be overcoming the cannon pinion. It was definitely not at the point that the driving wheel was loose on the cannon pinion, it took a little bit of effort to rotate it when applying the grease. Maybe I need to look again at applying oil to the pivots.    Yeah, it's very annoying. I don't want to give up on it, so back on with it over again until I catch a break.

      The sping is not pushing directly on the cap, but is pushing against the spindle. So, even if the usual black cap is replaced with the micrometer cap, the spindle is still pushed up.

      But he tells that the micrometer cap doesn't screw into the spindle. How can the spring push the spindle up if there's nothing to grip? There is a screw visible on top of the micrometer cap so should it be able to screw into the spindle? I'm feeling really dumb now. Does anyone manufacture that cap as an aftermarket item? Might be worth investing. Ok so the spindle is different, now I get it.

      I suppose? If it worked before and it doesn't work now I guess the question would be why does it not work now? That would come back to if you did not have the chronograph module on will it work or is the chronograph module sucking too much power out of the watch basically 99 usually when they go bad you can hold on the tube part and usually just spin the wheel because it has zero holding at all so usually when they go bad they go bad very bad. You should build hotel when you set the watch as to whether it seems to have any friction or not. I'm just wondering if the chronograph module is the problem.
