2824-2 hour wheel


Recommended Posts

Has anyone any ideas where I can get a ETA2824-2 hour wheel in a height 4 from, it measures around 1.75mm.

Needing it ASAP and don't really want to wait from one getting delivered from abroad.

Gleaves and Cousins are out of stock

Check with John Senior (http://www.obsoletewatchandclockparts.com/255-hour-wheel.htm) just because he doesn't list it doesn't mean he doesn't have it.

I would also check May Moorhead at Northern Watch and Clock Supplies.

The "where used" list below for this part is pretty extensive.  You may like to check some of the other movements at Cousins

Thanks for responses, tried Jonh Senior but no luck,

ordered a height 5 from cousins and will just have to remove .25mm off the pipe, not ideal but a solution.

The problem I am having is the one from a 2836 is listed as interchangeable but it has a step in it because in a 2836 it has the plate that keeps in place, the 2824 just has a dial washer with no step. Everywhere I have found it in stock for 2824 when questioned it's actually for a 2836 with the step in it and I don't really want to use a dial washer with the one with a step in.

We will see tomorrow when the height 5 from cousins turns up if it's the correct one.

    • The plate is OK, thanks. It seems the answer to my question is that this is a 'hack' & for me another reminder that in general, one won't be the first person to be tinkering with an old timepiece!. As you day, I've been fortunate to have gotten some good advice and, just as important, encouragement. I've been lucky then not to have the balance spring break as a result of my novice 'ministrations' - but I did remember to 'stroke' rather than bend per se. The clock is of sentimental value to the owner so I'm relieved to have now got it running to time with the support & encourage of forum members like yourself.

    • In think you are effectively shortening the coil by shorting out damaged tracks. In my case as long as the continuity was good and the resistance not too greatly affected it should be ok .  One was on an era  movement,
