Datewheel keeps popping out

[cib0rgman]

I have a 1570 and the date wheel keeps popping out every time the date changes, can someone tell me how to keep it in place.

I do not really know how

Thanks

Sounds like date change mechanism isn't set/engaging correctly.

Two things that keep the DW in place...

1. Two silver disc-shaped tabs arranged equilaterally (relative to the stem) around the outer perimeter of the movement - the DW should just snap in under them slightly.

2. Dial

It sounds like you forgot to set the locking screw (a small, squarish screw that sits along the outer perimeter of the datewheel ring that you turn to partially cover (lock-in) the date wheel). Either that or the datewheel was not installed all the way.
