Wostok 2209

Hello!

yesterday I finished putting back together a russian wostok 2209.

I thought twice about posting this after seeing what monumentally complicated movements Mark posted... but then I thought this what this forum is for. So here goes:

This is the watch. about 30 years old. I would say it is in great shape.

The reason why it didn't work - broken mainspring.

I centered the mainspring between the regulating pins.

Done!

 

That's it!

Some interesting things about this movement: The friction pinion is on the second wheel - the minute wheel is indirectly driven.

Also there is a double third wheel:

Don't be intimidated about Mark's blogs ... I bet he started out just like us, on the simple stuff  :)

You don't know the half of it!

 

My old mentor used to make me work on Timex's just for sh*ts and giggles!

Hi,

I'm a newbie to this forum and have just done my first ever complete disassembly & reassembly - and it just happens to be this same Wostok 2209 movement.   I'm very pleased with myself as it still worked after I reassembled :-)  The hairspring on mine could probably do with replacing though - would anyone happen to know where I can source a replacement hairspring, or is it a case of finding another old 2209 movement and canabalising?

Many thanks,
Mike

Have you search Ebay and cousinsuk? Search under watch parts and then Wostok ? I bought 20-30 old  russian  movement from Ebay as a lot Non left as i sold them. But should be no trouble finding a good hairspring or better a complete balance with bridge.

    • Thank you for your introduction and welcome to this friendly forum. We all look forward to your contributions and continued involvement. 
    • if you're trying to keep track of conversations scattered all over the message board emails are an absolute must.   looking at the bell icon on the top of the page versus the emails today it looks like I got the correct amount of emails. So making some minor change based on the one of the images up above I started getting notifications again. But at times I still have a suspicion that something isn't quite right. I have some feeling that the message board may delay sending emails until something so seems to be a long delay between when you get your emails just a weird feeling things aren't quite right oh  and then even though I do seem to be getting emails I no longer get notifications of personal messages I don't find that out until I arrived at the message board where I'm pretty sure I used to get notifications of those two. So something is definitely changed on the message board. then for everyone not getting emails you do want to check your spam folder. I have found that sometimes were open up an email the system I use warns me that it thinks the email is evil and bad and I have no idea why he thinks some of the emails are and some are not. But this is actually the program I use not the email system which also has a mind of its own as to what it considers spam so you should always check your spam folder.
