BCE chrono pusher has come off

[phaedo]

So I was undoing the chrono pusher to clean it a bit the other day, and the whole thing came off.

I have all the parts still, but I thought maybe it just needed screwing back in, alas not the case - or if it is, I am doing it wrong... anyway, I don't really use the chrono much so should I just loctite it back in maybe rendering it useless, or is it an easy fix, or are the threads screwed maybe and so can't be fixed? This is my daily beater (as I am sure you can tell by the condition ) so what is best to do?

Thanks for any input guys.

I believe it screws on. There should be threads on the end of the rod that is sticking out of the case, and internal threads inside the pusher. Take it to a watchsmith if you cant manage it, should be an easy fix.

Thanks Andreww, that was my thought too, although I am not able to get it screwed back on, hence my thought that it may be stripped. Might have to pop into a watchsmith then to see if they can fix it.

Phaedo maybe time to buy a new one as that one looks pretty beat up and worn looking.

Nothing a good polish wouldn't fix I am sure As I said, it is my daily beater that I wear whilst doing pretty much everything, I have a lawnmowing business so as you can imagine it takes a bit of punishment; but still keeps excellent time and the chronos all reset to zero if used.

it remindes me of when RIDE (a motorcycle magazine) tested the quality of the paint work on three motorbikes by not washing the bikes for a year.

i dont know why it reminded me of that but it did

ps the Honda won
