Rolexaddict Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 Sorry my english is limited, The arm 1 is to set the dead point, the arm 2 is to bend or to give more flexibility to the spiral. Bend= run faster, flexible= run slower don't touch the 1, and play with the 2 moving the arm a very few. The problem, you should use a monitoring device with a screen to control the run, difficult to get good results without, as I cannot see like that which side is fast and which side is slow...

Justasgood Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 Wrong. First: Remove the rotor and bridge. Arm number 2 should NOT be moved. This is to adjust the beat rate. Arm 1 adjusts the length of the spring causing the watch to gain/lose time. Move lever 1 toward lever 2 and you make the watch run slower. Move lever 1 away from lever 2 and you make the watch run faster. Good luck!Wrong. First: Remove the rotor and bridge. Arm number 2 should NOT be moved. This is to adjust the beat rate.

praetor Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 I've been trying to adjust my v2 for some time now. First it was 20 seconds slow per day.I found that the lever is in the center So I've moved the lever two marks forward. Then it was 2 minute fast Then I've moved it back one and a half back. It was then 2 minutes slow !! Afterwards, I just gave up and moved it back to the original position... awaiting results Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justasgood Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 Very small movements and then let it run for about 30 minutes. Itt takes the movement awhile to settle in after you adjust it. Less is more. Having a timing machine makes it much easier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolexaddict Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 Zeleni, o.k, I try to be clear, may be my first explications were mixed... difficult on your picture to know in the arm's hierarchy who's who between 1 and 2... I made a little drawing -took 5 minutes, not a big deal- on this drawing : the arm number 2, which is attached at THE END of the spiral is the spiral's dead point. Don't touch it. It controls the spiral axis drift, the arm 1 who is attached at THE BEGINNING of the spiral allows to bend (runn faster) or release (run slower) the spiral. This arm allows to gain or loose seconds. But without a monitor screen to manage your actions, its difficult to do something precise and Justasgood don't tell me I am vrong, simplified explanations but not vrong. you need other explanations ? how to tweak and determine the dead point ?

chefcook Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 before touching the mentioned arms 1 and 2 the adjuster (the indicator thing arm on the balance bridge that is only attached to the balance jewel cap) should be moved to the middle of its adjusting range (which is limited by the recess the adjuster arm is located in).

Your drawing is backwards. See here: Better example: Leave the White arrowed tab alone and adjust the black arrowed arm right to lose time and left to gain time. Or send the damn thing to me and I will regulate it for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a tiny bump will change the rate. Move it more and you'll have it running 5 min. fast per day.
