Hi to all .

Yesterday I bought a 'TEMPO' brand watch for the ridiculous sum of $ 2 in a garage sale. This watch has a movement 25 Jewels swiss made automatic. ETA 2789-1 And she has her original metal bracelet. As I know these are quality movements without having a lot of inscriptions on the movement (At least, that's what I think), I do not know what year this watch was made and by what company. Would there be a member who knows, and the mark and the approximate year of manufacture of this movement and the watch? thank you and sorry for the bad pictures

If you need to look up watch names the following site is very useful :

http://mikrolisk.de/show.php

Tempo as a watch name was first registered in 1904 and a lot of pocket watches turn up with the name on the dial as is the case with many of these names the companies who make them are bought up and change ownership and the name is then registered to the new company your watch is typical in style to watches produced in the late 60's to mid 70's. Using the site above will allow you to work out who owned the company in that period, the name is still in use today.

      Seiko 6601 Tech Sheet?

      By JohnR725 · Posted

      yes I noticed the new site and I miss the old site. It's the unfortunate problem of the Internet here today gone tomorrow sometimes some of the stuff gets backed up and sometimes well it does not then the problem with the early Seiko's were there were not necessarily designed for distribution across the planet and as such there is no customer support for them. So trying to find early stuff like technical information or sometimes even parts list for older Seiko is is problematic. But I did find you a you tube video. A quick look he seems to take a heck of a lot of time to actually get to the service single I did not watch all that but it does look like he did disassemble or started to say there's a tiny bit here

      An intro…

      By HorologyHead · Posted

      RichardHarris123: Hello and welcome from Leeds, England.  I have family all over Australia, went as £10 poms Thanks Richard. Hope you’re able to visit your family here and that they’ve all done well 🙂 My relatives arrived from England in the 1790s transported on the ‘Second & Third Fleets’—a story of timber sailing ships, of convicts and doing well in this huge Country of Australia. When I visited the UK in the 1980s, I was too young to comprehend the depth and breadth of its history…  Best wishes, Mike William Chapman, my 4th great Grandad’s charges, at age 23 read at the Old Bailey; sentenced to 7 years of transportation to Sydney.

      New balance staff not riveting to balance

      By Endeavor · Posted

      The whole process and the progress are closely observed, it's hand-driven and very controlled. I can't see the "danger", unless you are watching the TV while doing it. As you could have read, and in this quote "wheel" is the balance-wheel.

      AS2063 - hand setting

      By Mercurial · Posted

      Have you got the pallet fork installed in the movement when you see the train move when using the setting works? As nevenbekriev said, without the pallet fork to lock the train, the behaviour you are describing is normal. If this is happening with the pallet fork installed, you have a problem in the gear train, it should be immobile when the pallet fork is locking the escape wheel.  The fit of the circlip above the pinions on that wheel is crooked in your pictures, it should sit flat up against the upper pinion as in Marc’s picture.  Hope that helps, Mark

      By Khan · Posted
