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.

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.

      Black coating on shock jewel metal housing

      By VWatchie · Posted

      That was my gut feeling as indicated in my previous post. The total time in water is 15 minutes which seems too long. I go half that time at room temperature. I go six minutes of cleaning in Elma Red 1:9, less than two minutes of rinsing in battery water, and about two minutes in IPA. Depending on how dirty the movement is I get a fairly good result. For a near-perfect result, I need to pre-clean the parts by brushing them off in a degreaser and then in some IPA.

      First Project Already A Bit "Sideways"

      Yes, the screw seems to be forced in the smaller hole. In such case the screws will not unscrew when drilled with reverse drill bit. You option is to dissolve it. And yes, it is possible to drill a hole in it, then to press tappered broach in and try to unscrew, but it is much harder way.

      First Project Already A Bit "Sideways"

      By DDean · Posted

      So that is what the last person to work on this movement appears to have done.  There was a "wad" of adhesive material in the vicinity of that hole when I took the dial off.  I was hoping to take the high road and fix the issue in the work I did on this movement. I wasn't sure if I was imagining things or not when I looked at the screw hole, but it does appear to be somewhat distended.  I had not considered the posibility that someone had forced a screw that too big in there.  I had wondered about using a technique I've applied in other applications (where the screws are in the same scale as human hands) that involves counter drilling the plug with a  reverse threaded tap.  When I've had to do that in the past, the screw has generally caught and backed out from the torque on the tap (instead of yielding and letting the tap bore into it.)  I don't like doing that, but it's saved my rear a couple of times, but the smallest bolt I've tried that on had a 5 mm head.  This is an entirely different ball of wax. I am still contemplating disolving the screw with alum, even if that means I have to stick the dial down with double sided tape until I gain the skills to actually replace the screw.

      Balance staff sourcing?

      By caseback · Posted

      Hi Thomas, you should be able to find the right (or on close to beeing) in a Ronda or DCN balance staff catalogue. Cousins uk have those available as a download.
