A new 7750 movement, cleaning and assembly again, why watch swing only 260 °?

Have you oiled the balance correctly? You haven’t oiled the pallet pivots as this can cause drag, the balance will act as if it is tired and will not rotate correctly. Is the rest of the movement oiled?

其他可能性是弯曲或肮脏/油性的游丝。

你是否正确涂抹了天平？您没有上油托盘枢轴，因为这可能会导致拖动，平衡将作为如疲劳，不会正确旋转。运动的其余部分是否上油？

 

Please check below to see if the picture is correct.

perfectkyo,

Please post in English. Thank you.

He is posting in English. The Chinese language you see is just quoting from his translated view. He also posted a picture of lubrication points for others to comment. 

Personally I think that for an Asian 7750, 260 deg. of amplitude is just fine provided the watch keeps good time on the wrist.

Browser It helped me to translate English. This is the second time I published a question. I have not used it yet. It's embarrassing to bring you trouble.

Don't worry.

What was the amplitude before you serviced it? If it was around 300 for example, there are many reasons you could see a 40 degree drop. Although not to the tech guide your oiling procedure looks ok, most likely culprit is cleanliness. The pallet fork and roller jewel must be spotless, and don't overoil the pallet stones. Pallet pivots must be dry and do peg the jewels even on a clean new movement. Stick the horns in clean pith. And of course if the hairspring has been distorted in any way that can pose all kinds of problems.

      Setting lever spring

      By mikepilk · Posted

      I would harden and temper (to a light blue). It's so easy to do and only takes a couple of minutes. A search on ebay UK for "spring steel strip cs" finds plenty available in small quantites and thicknesses from 0.1mm up.  But the question is ( @nickelsilver) which "CS" number is best for watch parts ?  Also, from one of the ads : "CARBON SPRING STEEL. SIZE IS METRIC 15.00mm X 0.10mm X 304 MM  CS100 FINISH BRIGHT . HARDENED AND TEMPERD TO 480-530VPN" I've no idea about 480-530VPN. Does that mean it needs annealing before working?

      Here is the insert ring for rectangular or elliptical movements: Note that the length is the side with the stem cut out on the spreadsheet (in the picture below this is 15.15: Here is the fake pdf file, again you need to convert to .zip after download to access the FreeCAD and 3mf files.

      Omega cal. 565 - low amplitude

      By JohnR725 · Posted

      as you took the mainspring out what did it look like? It's amazing how much amplitude you can get if the mainspring actually has the proper shape. last week I was doing a 12 size Hamilton and was very much surprised with the beautiful back curvature the mainspring had. Then the watch had a really nice amplitude the group would be so proud it was 350 until I dropped the lift angle down to 38 that drop the amplitude quite a bit below 300. then with the beautiful back curve it still had really nice amplitude the next day. I really wish all my mainspring's look like this as the watch had beautiful amplitude the next day. So many of the aftermarket pocketwatch Springs I see now do not have anything resembling a back curve may be a slight curve and that's about all. They still work but they just don't work as nice as a properly made spring. then Omega as all sorts of nifty technical documentation unfortunately every single corner is watermarked with where it came from who downloaded it etc. very paranoid company. On the other hand I will snip out images like from the document on recycling a mainspring barrel. for instance here's the section on what your mainspring should look like. water damaged a lot of times means rust was there rust on this watch?
