mjmj Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 Hi does anyone know what the power reserve is for a gen tudor snowflake 9411 movement. Mine has a reserve of max 8 hours and when compared to my other ETA movements ie 2846 and 2836, it pales in comparison with both having a reserve of at least 36 hours. Do you think it is running dry and needs some oil? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highoeyazmuhudee Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 It should be better than 8hrs... Is it also running fast or slow? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redwatch Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 Time for a service I think. Mine lasts much, much longer than that. Haven't timed it yet, but here's a scenario. If I put it down when I go to bed, and put on a new watch the next morning, the Tudor is still ticking away when I get home from work. That's pretty close to 24 hours at least.

mjmj Posted March 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 Its been running +2-3 secs per day. So its very spot on when its being used and moved around. I will drop off at the watchsmith on Monday for a full service. Thanks for the tips Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddog Posted March 20, 2010 Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 Hi, Mjmj, I'm assuming that the movement you showed the picture of is the one from your tudor snowflake, Correct? If so, it's not a 9411 movement, it's the movement out of a 7021 snowflake, the eta 2484. as well, it appears that there are brass parts on the automatic rotor assembly as well, which would not be original, which, assuming this is your movement, a sign that things could be amiss...

mjmj Posted March 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 Hi Eddog, Thank you for the information. Yes its a pic of my watch. I ve just assumed that its a snowflake 9411 and have now been corrected that its a 7021. I will query with the watchsmith on monday. Thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
