Seagull Copy 2892

[FxrAndy]

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.

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.
