tridad Posted October 17, 2009 Report Share Posted October 17, 2009 The pusher itself will not stay in, it starts and it stops the chronograph function, but it stays stuck out after operation. I think I have all parts, but there must be an o ring or clip that keeps it in place inside the case. Any input will be greatly appreciated. Cheers!

RWG Technical Posted October 17, 2009 Report Share Posted October 17, 2009 Pushers are either held in place with a screw, or a "C" clip. The problem is where is the screw or C clip, most times it finds it's way into the movement and will cause damage. You need to find the missing piece and put it back in it's proper place.

The pusher looks like it is held by a C clip, once I find it, and I hope I do, is it hard to put back in? I might need to send it to a watchsmith anyway, but I would like to know. Thanks for the reply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWG Technical Posted October 17, 2009 Report Share Posted October 17, 2009 It can be tricky to install, you have to seat it on the post and then press it down to snap it in place, normally it wants to fly off in space... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Usil Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 I bet you could put the watch inside a large clear plastic bag to do it and when it flys off 2 or 3 times at least it stays inside the bag. Usil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I opened the case back, and was lucky to find the "C" clip, and yes, it was tricky putting it back on, but I succeeded. Whew!! I am just glsd I did not have to get it fixed or ship it to GZ. Thanks all for the input and ideas, I really appreciate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
