Hi guys :)

 

does anybody has experience with a service of an Orient Caliber 429? The clock is running, but the values are a disaster.

A service manual by Mark Lovick would be a dream. Is there a comparable Caliber, where Mark has done a service (Video)? Unfortunately, I do not have much experience with it and have respect for disassembling the clock. ;)

Greets..

Hi, there is very little info or data sheets around for Orient, I will try and link you with my Photobucket album of the strip down of a Wittnauer 2000, the movement is actually a de-rated Orient 429 movement, it may help you as it is a step by step disassembly of the movement.

If you strip yours watch out for the shepherds crook springs it has a few and they vanish in an instant if you aren't careful.
