JohnDorian Posted August 11, 2009 Report Posted August 11, 2009 Lost them for a IWC Spitfire Chrono... any ideas what might be suitable replacements?Here is the attachment
capice Posted August 14, 2009 Report Posted August 14, 2009 sounds obvious maybe but did you try the dealer....people who have acces to th factories would be able to supply these, or you must be luckyto get a scrapwatch with the innerpushers....
RWG Technical Posted August 14, 2009 Report Posted August 14, 2009 If I need one, I make it out of my stock of misc sized stainless steel pins...
JohnDorian Posted August 14, 2009 Author Report Posted August 14, 2009 I was thinking maybe solder from a soldering iron might do, I gotta run to the hardware store.
Logan Posted August 26, 2009 Report Posted August 26, 2009 Solder will be far to soft.. I've made them in the past from 2mm stainless rod. A proper watch makers lathe would be ideal, but I used a dremmel type tool and ground the ends down to flat with a grinding stone. Hole the pin in the dremmel chuck, manually hold the stone against the spinning part.
JohnDorian Posted August 26, 2009 Author Report Posted August 26, 2009 WHat about just a nail? I've ordered a dremel in order to try it out.
