What made you remove the stem from the movement? Was it broken?

I believe that most quartz movements will not run if the stem is pulled out to the setting position. If you removed the stem, you probably put the keyless work in setting position as you pulled it out. It should go back into running position when the stem is replaced pressed all the way in. If not,  maybe something's hanging up, or got semi-permanently displaced, in that keyless work area. That looks like a very complicated quartz movement, so I hope it's something simple. Good luck.

I found this website where the watchmaker took apart what I believe is the same, or at least similar movement to yours. Scroll about halfway down to where they talk about the hacking feature.

Beyond that you'll find this: " The issue with the non running of the movement was down to this little chap, the stop lever. This was the shape it was in…. " That statement is next to an image of what he called a stop-lever.

Again, good luck.

Hello,

I have an IWC 3740 with the same jlc movement.

I need to remove the movement to change one of the pusher. I don't know how to remove the stem. Could you help me?

Secondly, I don't have a specific tool for the pusher. Is possible to get it out with something like a sim remover for iphone?

 

Thank you for your help.

Have a good day

      Bad design or worst design?

      By mbwatch · Posted

      No real question here, I managed to clean and reinstall this straight. But I just thought I would share this silly design for a balance cap jewel on an old Junghans pocket watch caliber J32. The screw is in the center, the jewel eccentric; the opposite design from every other cap jewel I have ever seen. But it has no steady pins beneath so tightening the screw means the cap jewel wants to rotate away from the hole jewel. Without an automatic oiler, this took about 6 tries to oil and screw down the cap without spinning it away. A tiny bit of Rodico didn't really help. Happily they don't make them like this anymore.

      Sorry I am confused by step 4. Which screw? There is the balance cock screw. I don’t think that is what you are talking about. The only other screw I see is on the side of the swan neck regulator. I do t think that is the one you are talking about either Well I managed to make it worse again but I could take pictures.  I had put the balance cock partially in place with one locator pin in. I wanted to remove it and I know I should use my screwdriver in the slot to move it off the pin but I didn’t l pulled wit my tweezers and it stuck then gave suddenly and was thrown a few inches away and of course the hairspring got tangled (a coil was above the cock) and untangling it from the cock deformed it.    I am going to try to put it back in shape and I will likely post more pictures after shortly. I’ll wait for feedback before reattaching it to the cock I am sorry I think I’ll give up. I was trying to remove the tangle. I had previously succeeded but now I just made more of a mess with this new tangle.  Lf you see my spring it is now just a knot.  Let’s keep a positive attitude. The movement was already broken. It was working but couldn’t be used. So what if it can’t run anymore… I went on and reinstalled the mainspring in the barrel by hand and managed to put the arbor back in.  Now I need to close the thing!

      OK, bad video... Almost all of them are. To attach the spring (stud) to the cock: 1. Put the cock on the table top upside down.  Open the regulator if closed. 2. Put the balance on , align the stud above the hole for it in the stud carrier. 3. Help the stud to get in the hole by gentle pressing. 4. When it is in, grasp the cock with balance with tweezers (from aside, not from above), then get it between fingers, not changing the horizontal position, then tighten slightly the screw. This is the moment to correct the high position of the stud - it's top must be even with the carrier. Now tighten the screw. 5. If the outer coil is out of the regulator, move the regulator to the max to '+' position, then guide the spring to get in the regulator. Now You can return the regulator where it was and close it above the spring
