Nex_necO Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 I have an IWC slevin where the top pusher fell off and the little spring inside fell to oblivion. I have tried to push the pusher back in, but it is very loose and is likely to fall off during normal use. Is there a good way of fixing this. The chrono is non-working anyway, because a missing transmission between the pusher and the movement. Any help is appresiated. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWG Technical Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 The biggest problem is not the fact that the pusher fell off, it is that the part that was holding the pusher is now loose and inside the watch case and will get jammed up inside the movement. You shouldn't wind or use the watch until you have the case opened and the part removed, otherwise you could damage the movement. As for the pusher, once you find the missing screw or C clip, simply glue the pusher in the case if you don't want it to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nex_necO Posted November 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 Thanks. I opened the watch, and it turned out the pusher had broke off "outside" the case, so there was no loose screw or C clip. But it was two other small metal pieces lying around in the watch So I glued the pusher back in. Hope it stays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marky1012 Posted February 10, 2012 Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 I purchased a Slevin from Josh last year, when a new bunch of these were found. Last night I was giving the watch a polish and the top chrono pushed out - just like the OP. However I do have the spring still. I was hoping to sell this watch soon but I think I need to get the pusher fixed first. I have no faith in my skills in watchsmithery so I am planning to ask Domi to fix it - or do you think someone would buy the watch knowing this would need to be done? Btw I have no clue what sort of repair cost this would be. Any thoughts? Marky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
