I can point you to a watchmaker in Germany, havent used his services yet, but looks to be quite knowledgeable and capable.. Going to send several movements to be serviced by him soon :).

The Zigmeister might be able to do such a thing as well, hopefully he sees your thread

You need to remove the arbour to measure it's dimensions.

With a precision caliper the L x H x Pivot diameter are measured.

Those measurements are transferred to the Bestfit catalogue and from it you get the Bestfit number and order this from Cousins.

Cousins may also be able to provide the arbour by looking it up by caliber in their Bestfit catalogues.

excellent I'll give cousins a try tomorrow....thanks

btw , I've never removed the staff before tiny as it, it seems pretty tight... any tips or does it pull out with a bit of pressure?

The only way to safely remove it without damaging something is to use a staking set.

Same for the installation, it can only be done on the staking set, the pivot is probably 0.10mm and easy to break off.

The arbor's are normally driven in quite snug, I wouldn't recommend any other tool.

thanks a lot... valuable information... seems I need a local watchmaker to do this, but at least I now have a solution which is something I didn't have an hour ago... appreciate your input Zigmeister
