ETA 2892-A2 big date pdf

Recommended Posts

Hi all

i bought a watch that has been wrongly put together by someone (good price and worth fixing)

it has a 2892-A2 movement with the big date chronograph module fitted.

the watch was sold as “date not working”, I have stripped it down and got the mechanism working fine - the issue that it came with was the date discs had been put on wrongly which was jamming the change mechanism.

would anyone have a pdf that shows the correct alignment for the discs on assembly

image of the type of module attached

thanks for reading

    • All the best, family always comes first, and I believe you have made the right call that you mother deserves your full attention. However, when you need a little outside distraction the guys here will always be available for some banter or a heated discussion on lubrication 🤣.
    • Wire for what? if it's steel then only certain types of steel can be hardened ie high carbon steels: "Mild steel doesn't harden very well. It doesn't have enough carbon. Get something like O1, silver steel or if you want to go full watchmaker, then Sandvik 20AP". Source
    • I'm wondering if there's any specific type of wire I should get for hardening? I would assume it doesn't matter as long as the wire doesn't melt before it is at temp. 
    • Thanks Michael, sorry you were affected by this terrible condition. It can happen to anyone, 50's is the starting territory for it. My mum has been telling me for decades, " if i lose my marbles then shoot me",  my standard reply for that has always been " dont worry mum i bought the shotgun years ago ".  The same goes for me, not being able to communicate or comprehend is a very lonely place, now known to me as Aphasia. My mum had no warning of arriving there, I've had my warning and it was my mum that gave it to me. 
    • It's the hole in the mainplate that has become too big due to wear. I will try with some fine abrasive paper wrapped around a small file. I will start with 3000 grit and see what effect that has. Or I could try with a homemade burnisher. Anyway, I will post the result here soon.
