alligoat Posted November 6, 2014 Report Share Posted November 6, 2014 Looks Clean, hope it's in good shape. Could this be the start of a big crown? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbane883 Posted November 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2014 I don't have a stem handy. So just manually rotated the rotor. Not terrible given I only wound it about 20 times. Will get it serviced regardless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alligoat Posted November 6, 2014 Report Share Posted November 6, 2014 So does that somewhat low amplitude signal a dirty hairspring? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
508-Fanatic Posted November 6, 2014 Report Share Posted November 6, 2014 I bet it does, and someone's idea of a service at one point was probably an oil-dump. So does that somewhat low amplitude signal a dirty hairspring? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cc33 Posted November 6, 2014 Report Share Posted November 6, 2014 There are two stem sizes, .9 and 1.1, for the 8mm crown you'll need the 1.1mm stem 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddy333 Posted November 6, 2014 Report Share Posted November 6, 2014 Based on the scope reading, the movement requires cleaning/oiling &/or the balance is weak, which could be due to the mainspring being insufficiently charged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanuq Posted November 6, 2014 Report Share Posted November 6, 2014 There are two stem sizes, .9 and 1.1, for the 8mm crown you'll need the 1.1mm stem Assuming of course he's using an 8mm crown..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
