  1. If da stem ist cut too long, da pilot shaft will "bottom out" against the main plate (or da retaining groove against da set lever stud when it reaches da end of its travel). In either case da crown gasket will not be fully compressed irrespective of how "tight" da lever action ist. For dis reason, da lever tension ist always checked with da movement removed. How does your current water resistance compare to it's pre modification level? stiff muckler ist im da Haus! p.s. long stem = broken stem or wet uhren
  2. "Asian 23J" ist not exactly da calibre. Da calibre ist da manufacturer name and da numerical code dat ist assigned to dat particular movement. A picture of da movement would be nice. Anyway der ist probably a little plunger dat if depressed, moves da stud on da setlever dat engages da stem for retention - out of its groove. Dis recessed plunger will be in some proximity to da stem. Alternately der could be a screw (da "setlever screw") dat by loosening accomplishes dis same task! sm iiH! (I'm fer uhren & bier!)
  3. Archer is da man in Canada. (Hom friendly, not for sure about reps)
  4. old school with lots of variations. Dozens of different swiss cos. produced da anti-shock material (and most of dem don't interchange very well). sm iiH!
  5. It's a "click spring". stiff recommends that you use da larger screwdriver for this screw. sm iiH!
  6. "restoring of the cannon gear friction" = tightening da cannon pinion stiff says dats pretty simple. From dis far away stiff can't tell if your uhren needs da full "COA" or not. Fur de Valjoux, stiff thinks dats worth about 300E. stiff muckler ist im Haus! "Have a happy day!"
  7. Maybe a little oil or a little magnetism on dat hairspring, Ya? stiff muckler is in da House! "Have a happy day!"
  8. stiff says you need to replace da tube (and crown, if necessary). stiff muckler is in da House!
  9. Stiff Muckler have joined the party! German watches is my favorite, but I'm for discussing any interesting uhren (or beers!).
