Hello.I have been working on a vintage movement. It is German movement, PUW 1561.

It is automatic and has date with quickset function by pulling and pushing back the crown.

Before I disassembled it, the quickset did not work instead the date changed as hands passed 00:00. 

However, as I am trying to put the watch back, the date won't change either by quickset or just manually. 

The date disk won't move no matter how long I move the hands. I think I have assembled the date function part wrong but I have no idea how the parts should fit it.

I read a post about servicing this same movement but it did not work for me. (http://watchguy.co.uk/service-arowe-puw-1561/)

Could anyone help me how to put the date parts back in?? I attached a photo of the movement I am working on.

I don’t know this specific movement, but I’d look at old Omega service documents, particularly the 565, since it uses a similar quick set on the date with the crown push and pull. It is also automatic

Follow wls 1971' drawing. If it still does not function check you have not put a incorrect length screw in on the train side. If you have it will stop the calendar wheel turning.

Don't pull the crown just push and see what happens
