Missing chronograph reset pusher. Gallet


Recommended Posts

Hello, I have been in the process of repairing a Gallet Flight Officer from 1941. The watch is in stupendous quality and condition, it was never serviced and barely used. There is one part missing, however, the reset pusher, it is the bottom pusher under the crown. I am stuck trying to figure out how to get hold of one.

I have not tried much, but it would be of great appreciation to help find some options on how to get either a new one, or to even have it fabricated. 

 

Thanks, 

luca M

Hello Luca,

That is a very fetching timepiece! If the pusher is a common round-head waterproof pusher then you probably can find an aftermarket replacement that will fit from Cousins; their website is pretty good about giving you the dimensions of the piece to help you out. I think finding an original is unlikely though.

If your topic is the pusher, it would help to show a picture of pusher  and case tube, and to give some sizes!

Here are some pictures. I can get better measurements when I get a new battery for my caliper. It was not letting me upload pictures, I just used imgur.

Have a couple of  pushers here. But you have to take some measurement on yours to see if one or more could work.

Great! I will get my battery in as fast admin possible and give you a headset up with the sizes. Are those pictures adequate? Or would you like other. 

 

Thanks,

Here are the pictures. Sorry for the wait. Some of the measurements may be off muni a few hundredths, but it is really close. Also, I included the size of the rod used to attach to pusher to the case, just to give you a threading idea. There is also a spring missing, if out have one around that size.

 

thanks so much for the help,

Sound great, I tried to PM you, but it says you can’t revive messages.
