P8B Posted December 3, 2008 Report Posted December 3, 2008 Hi All, I have a manual wind 111h from deltick. It had not been worn for like a 20-30 days so i picked it up this morning to wind it and i cant, when i turn the crown it changes time, i tried every position but it does not do the trick. Has anyone had this problem? or can someone tell me how to set this right please? Thanks
babola Posted December 3, 2008 Report Posted December 3, 2008 Could be as easy as keyless works screw that gotten loosened up (unscrewed from the clutch on the dial side), or simply needs to be re-seated properly. While this would be reasonably easy thing to check and rectify for a person that's done some basic mov't tinkering in the past, I'm not sure how handy you are with the watch mov'ts in general, so it may be a good idea to take it down to your watchmaker or jewelerly store to have a look at it.
P8B Posted December 15, 2008 Author Report Posted December 15, 2008 Guys you wont believe this but with no watch tinkering experience whatsoever never having removed a caseback even i was able to fix this!! Thanks to our very own Deltick of course who supplied me with a picture of exactly what to so and in a few minutes... Boom its working again!
babola Posted December 15, 2008 Report Posted December 15, 2008 Glad it worked out for you in the end :-)
P8B Posted December 16, 2008 Author Report Posted December 16, 2008 So what exactly was it? All i needed to do was to remove the back and tighten a small screw that holds the crown in (pic attached) Im writing a step by step of what i did for other noobs who might have a similar issue...
