FxrAndy Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 Just a quick word of warning for all members who have watches powered by 2892 copys made by seagull, i thing they call it the ST18, it might be worth checking that the retaining ring that holds the rotor in place is still seated correctly. I woke this morning as was supprises when i took my most reliable watch off the winder and it had stopped. Sorry i forgot to photograph it before i fixed it so this pic will have to do. The ring is held in place by its self sittin in a grove in they outer bearing race, you will see that the race has 4 flats to it that corespond to 4 flats on the inside of the ring. Once these are lined up the ring can be pushed and rotated back into position to secure the rotor. I managed it witha hang ove before coffe so it is a simple fix. I might just be worth keeping and eye on these works and note if the ring is moving. I hope this is of some help. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olivia Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 The original 2892 ETA had the same rotor locking ring, so it could happen to a genuine as well. But, I am glad to see the Seagull copy. Klink would be proud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
