In need of a setting spring for a Oris 394 kif

The Oris i bought my mother at Christmas is running okay but the stem was a little loose? Had my suspicion what it could be? Open the case up and the little spring piece fell out? The parts where obsolete at cousinsuk. Anyone out there there that could help out? Is it a Oris 394  movement as i think it's a pin lever movement? Only  7 jewels. 

It works to have the stem like it is but would like it to be perfect :)

Hi Rogart,
I have this Oris call 292 that is a 7 jewel. The setting lever is good despite superficial rust. I am not sure is there is a caliber cross reference for parts, but I bet it might work. If you want to try it, I'll send it out.

According to Jules Borel, the cal 292 is not the same part. Cousins has what you need in stock, but at £16. Jules Borel's price is $12.75 but you need to contact them to confirm.

Ah yes J. Borel! I just placed an order with them, but forgot to check there.

Thanks J 

But i don't think it will work? My looks more like a normal setting lever for a AS or FHF . Haven't taken the watch apart yet as my mother is wearing it anyway? It works and wind but the time is a little tricky to set. Need to pull the crown at the same time as you set the hands.

    • As Richard said, this is a really old school trick for joinery.  Cut i strip of paper, might need to be watch paper  around 1 " x 1/2" lay it over a staking block then press the stud screw into and through the edge of the paper upto the head of the screw. You probably wont even need to pull the paper away the head will pull itself through.
    • Thanks Jon, my mum is getting there day by day, so strong and determined, they dont make em like this anymore 🙂 Old folk are so amazing,  my mum used to love her golf, she didn't stop playing until she was 70 . Enjoy your trip and your golf.
    • Hello,  i am looking to source a winding stem (winding arbor) for a waltham 6/0 d movement. I have found some that claim to fit 6/0, 6/0s, 6/0b etc and somealso claim they will also fit the d as well. The d does have hacking which is driven by the stem seating completely. Given some of the costs of these, i was hoping someone would know of any interchangeability with a source, or know a source where a confirmed 6/0 d stem can be had. I am in the US so a US dealer is best.    thanks in advance. 
    • So great to see and hear- your mum looks great! …my mil had a stroke last summer in the golf course parking lot. I’m flying out tomorrow to visit and play golf. she’s ornery because she can’t get off the tee but I hear she makes up for it on the greens since she’s been putting since a week after her stroke 🧐…
    • Very best wishes to you and your family, as a carer myself I know how difficult things can be.
