Diashock: Seiko Shock Protection Advise Needed


Recommended Posts

Some excellent tips in this post, thanks guy's!  I've started a notebook with them so I don't forget them.

 

Something I've had some luck with in retrieving small parts from a carpeted floor is a bit of my wife's discarded nylons rubber banded on to the end of vacuum hose, run it around where you think it may have landed and I usually find the missing surface mount component stuck to the nylons while the vac is still running.  Not sure if the mesh of the nylons is too large for some of the smaller screws but you never know.

That sounds like a good idea Rossco, I'll try that too!

 

Lawson, I see a picture of another tool along the set of 3 kiff. Any idea what it is? I know it is held by the Bergeon arbor holder...maybe it is something custom made?

    • You know it H Ours was scrapped early 60s. Nothing wrong with joining the army H , i would have love the physical and discipline side of it, but i can't follow or be lead by numpties.
    • That's exactly why you need to exercise, or you'll meet with an untimely death! 😉 Well, good thing you weren't born in my neck of the woods then as you would have no choice. Back in the day when it was time for my service (early 80s) this small country could mobilize 800,000 soldiers in a few days, and mobilization supplies with modern weapons and munitions were everywhere and we had an air force second to none. Then beginning in the 90s it was scrapped because our politicians decided that Russia would become a Western democracy. In discussions with colleagues, friends and acquaintances where I mentioned I thought it was imprudent to scrap our capacity for self-defense, I was laughed at. I wonder if anyone of those people would laugh today.
    • Hi there, first time for me to ask for help since I joined the forum. I’m working on a Seiko 6138-0040 for a friend. I’ve already done a few 6138B’s, so not completely new to me. This one is a bit different, with lots of gremlins. Sheared off dial feet screw, case back ring missing, movement glued in the case etc. On top of that, on of the eccentrics  also sheared off when trying to adjust the hour recording wheel stop lever spring.  On the parts list, there is only 1 mention of an eccentric, namely the 823.619. Unfortunately it is unclear if it is  the one I need, or if it’s the eccentric for the hour hammer..  If it is the right one, I can order one from Cousins, if not I probabely have to source a main plate.  Does anybody know which eccentric the 823.619 is? Thanks so much!
