watchman12345 Posted February 20, 2007 Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 I recently swapped to a gen dial and hands on a SMP and after replacing the hands, the hands dont progress at all. The second hand is fine but the time doesnt move. They turn fine with the crown. Any ideas? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forgot to mention, when i popped the dial off the movement the little tube that the hands click onto along with a wheel came off. I replaced them and they seem grand. The little circular springgy thing is a little shook but as I said they work perfectly when turning with the crown and the second hand works.

RWG Technical Posted February 21, 2007 Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 You have disconnected the cannon pinion from the wheel that drives it. You have to re-insert the cannon pin tube into the cannon gear wheel for it to work again. RG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
