Greetings,

I just purchased a NOS roventa pocket watch. It comes with a ETA 6497 movement and for the price it was a great deal.

So, has anybody heard of this watch brand I understand they basically case a ETA movement but I cant really find any info on them. I wonder if this company basically became Roventa-Henex SA.

Any info would be great as this one is a fairly new one to me.

      Omega Split stem issue (will not go back in)

      By Rustinbox · Posted

      Bringing this old thread back to life, as I have similar problem. I did follow this advice, but while inserting a male stem (crown side) and just pushed it to the female part, and the fork (female side) of the stem has broken. What is the right way? Push the stem part so it widens the gap and fits in? Why it was then receiving side got broken? Old metal? It is a vintage watch from late 60s.    or the outer part should be inserted somehow from the side (slipping to the gap), but I don’t have space there for this manipulation. The watch is Orient Fineness monocoque case.   thank you!

      Winding pinion making

      Thats insane Nev that you cut those tiny pinion teeth with a cutter you designed and made.

      I certainly do Razz. Ive just started work on this AS554, interestingly enough it had a paper dial made from a postcard , look at the brand name on the dial, very curious.

      Generic screws for unknown movements

      By Neverenoughwatches · Posted

      Yep, so we got a 10 1/2  ligne movement, thats the starting point now these bad boys books should hopefully get us across the finishing line . Next we need a good clear picture of that rocking bar, the setting lever and the setting lever spring. I've already got an idea what it might be.
