BENRUS JUMP HOUR PLUS
*****************************************

WHEN WE HAVE A PATRON
WHOM WANTS A CRAZY AS HECK RESTORATION
WE STILL BUST OUR BUTTS
TO COMPLETE HIS WATCH

BENRUS JUMP HOUR WATCH FROM HELL
OVER 97 LOGGED HOURS
CHARGED THE BASIC 175.00 RESTORATION FEE
ON A WATCH THAT WAS A 250.00 RESTORE
USED PARTS SUPPLIED BY PATRON
WORN JUMP WHEELS
RESTORE DIAL
3 MOVEMENTS FOR ONE COMPLETE
PROVIDED ACCESS TO EVERY DETAIL
ON LINE 24/7 NOTHING WAS DONE
WITHOUT POSTING FIRST

THE MOVEMENT HAD TO BE RE-BUILT BY US
IT NOW WINDS RUNS KEEPS TIME
REPAIRED JUMP HOUR, MINUTE, SECONDS DISCS THAT WORK
DIAL WAS RESTORED
CASE IS NEAR MINT BECAUSE IT WAS FREELY REPAIRED USING GOLD CADMIUM SOLDER

ONLY THE SECONDS WHEEL STANDS OUT DUE TO FACT
PATRON SENT IT AT LAST MOMENT
THOUGH IT IT WAS WRONG ONE WE FITTED

YOU MUST READ BELOW
BUT START AT BOTTOM WORK YOUR WAY UP

LOOK, WE HAVE OVER 75000 PICS OF OUR WORKS
IF YOU WANT A RESTORATION THEN USE COMMEN SENCE
HAVE A QUESTION ASK IT. AFTER ALL, WE POST AS WE GO.

EVERYTHING IS COMPLETE EXCEPT THE PAINTING OF  THE
SECONDS STAR WHEEL,

NOTE THE BROWN SECONDS CENTER WHEEL
SENT BY THE OWNER OF WATCH.

IT IS THE WRONG WHEEL BUT AT LEAST IT FITS

I WORKED NEAR 3 HOURS TO FIT THE WATCH.

. I WILL PAINT IT TO MATCH THE DIAL
YET IT IS THE WRONG WHEEL

I RESTORE YOUR TIME PIECE AS CLOSE TO MINT CONDITION AS POSSIBLE. WHILE MOST MOVEMENT PARTS
LIKE MAINSPRINGS ARE AVAILABLE,  MINT CONDITION RELIES ON ORIGINAL CASE PARTS

THIS BEAUTY ACTUALLY CAME OUT IN NEAR MINT CONDITION, WITH ONLY THE CENTER SECONDS WHEEL–
WHICH IS THE WRONG MODEL– REQUIRING BRUSH PAINTING TO MATCH THE DIAL

THE CORRECT SECONDS WHEEL IS THE HIGH RAISED VERSION WITH THINNER MOUNTING TUBE

PATRON SHIPPED THE STAR SECONDS WHEEL SEVERAL DAYS AGO. THOUGH NOT THE PROPER
ONE WITH HIGH CENTER STAR AND THINNER SHAFT TUBE. I CUSTOMIZED TO FIT BY
THINNING THE TUBE. ABOVE ARE TWO MINUTE WHEELS. THE LEFT DOES NOT FIT THIS MODEL.
IT HAS WIDER OPENING FOR A DIFFERENT BAH MOVEMENT. THE ONE ON RIGHT IS THE
PROPER MINUTE WHEEL INSTALLED. BUT IT HAS AN OPENING THAT IS ALMOST
1/3 RD SMALLER — THOUGH I MANAGED TO CUSTOMIZE THE SECONDS WHEEL FIT.

THE PATRON SENT4 JUMP HOUR WHEEL DIALS. TWO HAD THE JUMP GEARS ATTACHED AND
TWO NONE. AS EXPLAINED DURING 1ST WEEK WHEN WATCH AND PARTS WERE INSPECTED,
THE PROPER ONE WAS THE ONE WITH COPPER GEAR. BUT,IT WAS,  LIKE MOST PARTS PROVIDED,
PREVIOUSLY “FIXED” OR “REPAIRED” OR “JURY RIGGED” PARTS. REPAIRED THE WRONG WAY,
IT’S NUMBERS DID NOT LAND BETWEEN THE HOUR DIAL WINDOW AND NONE OF THE OTHER DIALS
WERE IN GOOD ENOUGH CONDITION TO USE. THE FACT WAS THE OFFSET COPPER GEARED DISC
WAS ONCE SET WITH AN EPOXY. THAT WAS USED IN THE PAST TO
“FIX” IT. THE JUMP HOUR DISC’S WERE DAMAGED OR POORLY REPAIRED. 

THE WATCH SENT WAS NOT A “COMPLETE” WATCH.  MOVEMENT PARTS,THE
TWO PIECE STEM, PROPER WHEELS, THE JUMP HOUR WHEEL –AS EXPLAINED, THE SECONDS
WHEELS AND  BALANCE-COCK/BALANCE ASSEMBLY ALL WERE REQUIRING PARTS IN ADDITION TO LABOR.

USING PARTS FROM THREE MOVEMENTS AND A SHIMMING
OF THE BRIDGE COCK WITH INDUSTRIAL EPOXY  I GOT IT RUNNING.

IT WAS THEN DISCOVERED THE LACK OF A TWO PART STEM, AND SEVERAL CASE ISSUES
MEANT THE MOVEMENT WOULD NOT SEAT PROPERLY.  THE STEM WAS SUPPOSED TO BE 
TWO PIECE  AFTER.,INVESTING IN TWO– ONE NEW THE OTHER USED. DID NOT WORK.
I EVENTUALLY WORKED THE CASE AND GOT THE SINGLE PIECE T

THEN THE RESTORATION OF THE DIAL WAS REQUESTED. READ THE PROGRAM,
75.00 IS BASE. THOUGH THIS DIAL WAS MOSTLY HAND ACCOMPLISHED
RATHER THAN PLATES, WE CHARGED THE BASIC 75.00

 THIS IS NEAR MINT EVEN WITH THE WRONG CENTER WHEEL

A-  A CENTER SECONDS WHEEL WAS SENT. IT REQUIRES PAINT.  AS FAR
AS POSITION, I GOT HER TO FIT– BUT SHE IS THE WRONG ONE. VARIOUS MODELS ARE ACTUALLY DIFFERENT. 

THIS ONE IS INCORRECT FOR THIS MODEL. IT TOOK SEVERAL HOURS TO FILE DOWN
THE SIDES OF THE TUBE THAT WAS TOO WIDE TO FIT INTO THE DARK HOLE WITH STAFF YOU SEE ABOVE.

NOTE THAT THE CENTER WHEEL STAFF/PINION DOES NOT RISE OVER THE MINUTE DISC CENTER. 

I GOT IT TO FIT AND WORK..

THE CENTER WHEEL ABOVE HAS A HUMONGOUS GOLD STAR COMPARED WITH THE
ONE SENT. THESE WERE MADE FOR THE MODELS WITH FLUSH CENTER WHEEL STAFF PINIONS.

WHEN POSITIONED THE CENTER STAR RISES ABOVE THE DIAL WITH STAR LINES MEETING THE DIAL LINES.

THE ONE SENT IS NEARLY FLAT/ I MAY TRY SANDING TWO OF THESE TO MAKE ONE……

B-NONE OF THE “EXTRA” HOUR WHEELS WERE
CORRECT. ONLY THE HOUR WHEEL TO THE LEFT —-

—-CAN YOU CAN SEE STAINING ON IT? SOME ONE IN THE PAST REMOVED THE DIAL
DISC FROM THE GEAR ON THE BACK THEN EPOXIED IT BACK TOGETHER DURING A ?REPAIR?.

IT IS OFF CENTER. JUMPS BETWEEN THE NUMBERS. THUS IN THE WINDOW OF THE DIAL THE NUMBERS
ARE NEVER CENTER. THE PROBLEM WAS MOST PARTS HAD BEEN REMOVED FROM OTHER WATCHES DUE TO PROBLEMS.

OVER 90 HOURS AND A TON OF FIXES BOTH CONVENTIONAL
AND UNCONVENTIONAL  AND THE FACT I LIKE THE LOOK ..WELL…

CLOSE UPS ENLARGED YOU CAN SEE WHAT I AM STATING
A FINE TIP BRUSH TO APPLY GOLD PAINT OVER THE EXISTING PAINT
BUT THAT WILL NOT RAISE THE WHEEL NOR MATCH THE STYLE

NOTE THE OFF-SET CROWN? I EXPLAINED THAT EARLIER
THIS WATCH REQUIRED A 500.00 RESTORATION
I CHARGED 175 + DIAL 75.00 + 50.00 FOR MAIN SPRING AND OTHER WORKS

NOTE. WE CHANGED THE MAIN SPRING AFTER
COMPLETING THE WORK
IT SIMPLY HAD TO BE DONE THE ONE IN THE MOVEMENT
AND IN TWO OTHER BARRELS LOOKED GREAT
UNTIL IT RAN

AWESOME

FINALLY THE END
IF YOU EVER WANT TO SEND ME ONE OF THESE. IT WILL COME
UNDER THE COMPLICATED FEE CATEGORY

BENRUS JUMP HOUR

OVERHAUL RESTORE REBUILD

FOR THE MONTH

MAY 2014 – JUNE 2014

DELIVERY DATE

JUNE 29 TO JULY 4 2014
DEPENDING ON CENTER SECONDS STAR WHEEL

HERE WITHOUT THE MINUTE WHEEL
THIS WAS THE MOST DIFFICULT RESTORE EVER
PERIOD

NOTHING FIT RIGHT
WHEELS LOOSE ON CENTER MOUNTS
OR
BENT CRACKED
ONLY ONE FIT AND IT WAS EPOXIED OFF CENTER
MOVEMENT WAS A MESS REQUIRED PARTS FROM THREE SENT
AND THE BALANCE HAD TO BE SHIMMED IN THE END

HERE SHE IS RUNNING
HOW I GOT THE DAY TO BE CENTER WAS TO
CREATE ANOTHER STEM OPENING IN CASE
LIKE THE FACTORY NORMAL OR OPTIONAL DRIVER POSITION ON SOME WATCHES

MOVEMENT BUILT RATHER THAN RE-BUILT

CASE DAMAGE FILLED WITH 14K GOLD CADMIUM BASED SOLDER

[NO ONE DOES THIS PERIOD TOOK ROCK 25 YEARS TO FIGURE HOW  TO REPAIR GOLD FILLED JEWELRY AND WATCH CASES ]

CASE CUT TO ALLOW THE OFFSET HOUR WHEEL

DIAL FINISHED TO ORIGINAL CONDITION

REQUIRED 2 PART STEM ROCK CUSTOMIZED CASE INTERIOR
TO ALLOW REMOVING OF BEZEL THEN CRYSTAL THEN DIAL W/DIAL RING THEN A TWEEZERS FITS AROUND STEM AND CROWN CAN BE SCREWED OFF INTERIOR OF BOTTOM OF SINGLE STEEL CASE WORKED TO ACCEPT  MOVEMENT WITH SHIMMED BRIDGECOCK

CRYSTAL IS ORIGINAL THAT WAS IN THE PARTS SUPPLIED BY PATRON

Sets Winds Runs Minute Wheel Revolves
Jump Hour Wheel Jumps

WHAT IS LEFT??

EITHER EPOXY/GLUE SECONDS STAR WHEEL TO MINUTE WHEEL CENTER MOUNT
OR AN OLD NOS SECONDS STAR WHEEL REQUIRED

 WWII ERA 1944 OCTO BY RECORD

WWII ERA DRIVERS OR STANDARD

ONLY FOUND ON SINGLE CASE SYSTEM W/BEZEL
PUSH OVER OR 4 WAY SCREW DOWN UNDER LUGS

WORKED GREAT THERE SIMPLY WAS NO WAY OF REMOVING DISC FROM CENTER
MOUNT WITH STAR GEAR. IT HAD BEEN DAMAGED AND THEN EPOXIED
THERE WAS ONE OTHERS WITH A SMALLER STAR GEAR –WOULD NOT WORK
AND TWO OTHERS, ONE WITH TOO WIDE CENTER
THE OTHER WAS NICE BUT THE WHEEL WAS TOO SMALL

HOW ABOUT THIS CASE. YES, I FOOLED YOU BY SAYING THERE WAS NOTHING I COULD DO
WITH THE CASE DAMAGE TO THE GOLD FILL. I HEATED IT AND APPLIED GOLD SOLDER
TO THE BAD SPOTS IT CAME OUT GREAT

LOOK AST PICS DOWN BELOW. NOTE THE CHIPS INTO THE GOLD FILL AROUND THE CRYSTAL

WOW
I HAD TO USE THIS CROWN.. GOLD WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE
BUT YOU HAVE TO USE WHAT WILL WORK
I ALREADY HAVE 79 HOURS IN THIS BABY
I AM OUT OF RIGGING STUFF… BUT I MEAN RIGGING AS IN
MAKING IT WORK AND LOOK RIGHT

WHAT DID I SAY
LOOK I COULD HAVE SUPER POLISHED BEAD BLAST BUFF TO HE**
BUT A NICE EVEN BUFF THEN BRASS WHEEL WAS PERFECT
YOU SEE THE INFO ON BACK IS THIN

UPDATE

06 21 14

MOVEMENT COMPLETED OVERHAULED SERVICED

DIAL RESTORED

JUMP HOUR WHEEL REFITTED PERFECT

MINUTE WHEEL PERFECT

CASE READY FOR RESTORE

WAITING A WEEK OR SO AFTER GETTING A
POSITIVE REPLY TO THE SECOND STAR WHEEL
NOTE: THIS DOES NOT MEAN I AM
SURE IT WILL BE RIGHT

IF NOT I WILL ASSEMBLE
MOUNTING SECONDS ON MINUTE WHEEL
IF WE FIND ONE IN THE FUTURE
THEN WE CAN INSTALL

WATCH WILL LOOK RIGHT OPERATE RIGHT,
ONLY SECONDS WILL MOVE WITH MINUTE WHEEL

 THE LAST TO THE FINAL UPDATE JUNE 19TH 2014
TWO WEEKS FROM FINAL WAITING FOR SECONDS WHEEL
ABOVE IS SCHEMATIC OF OPERATIONS EXPLAINED
IF NO SECONDS WHEEL IS DISCOVERED WE WILL MOUNT
THE SECONDS STAR WHEEL TO MINUTES CENTER WHEEL

  
UPDATE
6/19/2014

RESTORED DIAL

WE FINALLY HAVE THE MOVEMENT WORKING PERFECTLY AND IT
IS TURING THE HOUR WHEEL AND THE MINUTE WHEEL PERFECTLY IN ALL POSITIONS.

THOUGH THIS BEAUTY IS OPERATIONAL, THE
SECONDS “STAR WHEEL” PIECE REMAINS THE MAIN PROBLEM.

IN THE END, IF WE CANNOT DISCOVER ONE WITHIN THE NEST 2 WEEKS –
THE TWO SENT ARE BEYOND REPAIR– WE WILL ATTACH A STAR WHEEL TO THE MINUTE WHEEL.

IT WILL TURN WITH THE MINUTE WHEEL. BECAUSE W/O IT, THERE IS NOTHING
IN THE CENTER, NOT ONLY IS IT THE SECOND “HAND” IT IS THE FINISHING PIECE.

THESE ARE SECONDS “STARS”

 PERFECT!!! WE CHOSE THE GOLD OVER THE WHITE DIAL. NICE PERFECT PROFESSIONAL
ABSOLUTELY FACTORY MATCHING DETAIL AND FINISH. PERFECT FROM THE BENRUS &
SWISS NAME AND FONT TO THE RED MINUTES POINTER……
. THIS IS WHAT WE CALL RESTORED TO ORIGINAL CONDITION….

WORKS WITH NORMAL SECONDS HAND

6/18/2014  –   7/04/2014
CENTER STAR WHEEL USUALLY ROTATES WITH EACH SECOND
IF A NEW OLD PART IS NOT DISCOVERED OVER THE FINAL
TWO COMING WEEKS –WE HAVE ATTEMPTED TO FIND SINCE MAY–
WITHIN THE NEXT TWO WEEKS WE WILL INSTALL ON TOP
OF CENTER WHEEL IN THE CENTER OF THE MINUTE WHEEL
IF ONE IS DISCOVERED LATER ON ANY ANY TIME PATRON
CAN SEND IN AND WE WILL MOUNT IT FOR FREE
PATRON REQUIRED TO INVEST IN WHEEL PART AND FOR SHIPPING ONLY

6/18/2014  –   7/04/2014

THE DIAL RING ON RIGHT NOT FOR THIS MOVEMENT
WHEEL IS TOO SMALL

THIS IS CLICKER
WHEN DIAL WHEEL IS TURNED THIS DEVICE CENTERS
THE NUMBER IN THE DIAL WIDOW

IT WILL NOT WORK

THESE ARE SECONDS WHEELS

AS YOU CAN SEE, THEY WERE BOTH AT ONE TIME GLUED
THE CENTER STAFF PINION WAS BROKE OFF
AND ONE OF THESE GLUED TO MINUTE WHEEL DIAL

ONLY ONE MINUTE WHEEL DIAL WORKED
THE SECOND WHEEL WAS GLUED TO SILVER MINUTE WHEEL MOUNT

THE MINUTE WHEEL REQUIRES WORK
THE JUMP HOUR WHEEL WAS RE GLUED PRIOR TO US
TO THE GEAR/WHEEL. SEEMS TO LEAVE THE HOUR WHEEL NUMBER SLIGHTLY TO Right
CANNOT BE UNGLUED

CONTINUING TO WORK THE PROBLEMS AFTER A FEW DAY BREAK

I LOVE THE PATRON WHO SHIPS 5 MOVEMENTS
IN VARIOUS ARRAY SO WE HAVE PARTS
SO FAR
–CROSS MY DRIVERS AND HOPE TO WORK–
A RUNNING MOVEMENT IS ACCOMPLISHED
AND THAT TOOK LITERALLY
18 HOURS
TO BUILD THEN REPLACE
THEN REMOVE THEN ADD
THEN BUILD THEN
ADD THEN TAKE
THEN ADD

YOU GET THE POINT

THIS IS A SUPER EASY TO WORK MOVEMENT
EXCEPTING THERE WERE MANY PROBLEMS
NO EASY FIX WAS SEEN
ALL THE FOLLOWING PARTS WERE EXCHANGED
SPARES COMING FROM THE MOVEMENTS
SHOWN AT TOP

AND THEN EVEN MORE PARTS
BRIDGE JEWELS BALANCE CENTER WHEEL
SCREWS HOLDERS EVEN THE JUMPER AND A SPRING

A VISUAL OF THE SCREWS AND ASSOCIATED PARTS CHANGED

HERE AFTER TRIAL AND ERROR
WE HAVE A
WINDING SETTING RUNNING MOVEMENT
THE KEY IS TO FIT THE JUMP HOUR WHEEL
AND
WHILE THE MINUTE AND SECONDS WHEELS
ARE PRETTY MUCH AN ALIGN AND PRESSURE DOWN

THE MINUTE/SECONDS
PLAY NO PART IN DRAG NOR REQUIRES
ANY THING BUT BASIC OPERATION

OPERATION OF DIAL WHEELS
THE SECOND WHEEL
AND
MINUTE WHEEL
BOTH ARE LIKE NORMAL WATCH HANDS AND FIT THROUGH FRICTION
THE JUMP HOUR DIAL WHEEL UTILIZES A DEVICE SIMILAR TO DATE
CHANGING WHEELS, A JUMPER AND A SPRING HOLDER
THE HOLDER SLIPS BETWEEN THE TINES OF THE GEAR
ON THE BACK OF HOUR DIAL WHEEL
WHEN THE JUMPER FINGER CONTACTS THE TINE OF WHEEL GEAR IT
APPLIES PRESSURE TO TURN THE WHEEL ONE NOTCH AND THE
?SPRING HOLDER CLICKS IT INTO POSITION TILL THE NEXT HOUR

YET, AS I STATED, THE MINUTE AND SECONDS DIAL WHEELS OPERATE LIKE HANDS
VERY EASY AND SIMPLE
EXCEPT IT HAS TO BE PERFECT IN EVERY WAY
INCLUDING MAIN AND BALANCE
TURNING A HAND IS SIMPLE
A WHEEL WITH GEAR AND SPRING LOCK A LITTLE DIFFERENT

JUMP HOUR WHEEL LEFT
WE HAVE 4 BUT ONLY TWO HAVE THE GEAR ON BACK

EACH ONE IS DIFFERENT IN LOOK AND SIZE
ONLY ONE WILL FIT THIS MOVEMENT

.

I AM PRETTY SURE THE ABOVE WERE THE ONES UTILIZED
BUT ATTACHING THE GEAR IS TRICKY
ONLY EPOXY WILL DO
AND
THEY HAVE TO BE PERFECT
NO EXCESS NO HEIGHT ALTERATION
LET US HOPE THE GOOD WHEEL WITH GEAR WORKS

AS TO THE OPERATIONAL
POWERING
MOVING
IMPORTANT
CONTROLLING
RUNNING
SIDE
OF THE
MOVEMENT?
WITH BRIDGES WHEELS BALANCE AND MORE
NO LESS THAN 11 PARTS WERE MOVED LIKE MUSICAL CHAIRS
FROM ONE TO ANOTHER MOVEMENT
A BRIDGE WITH CRACKED AND MISSING JEWELS
A MISSING CENTER WHEEL
AND
THOUGH THERE WERE 4 BRIDGES AVAILABLE
EACH HAD A PROBLEM
THE ONE THAT WAS FINE DID NOT FIT PROPERLY
SO MIX AND MATCH AND THERE SHE WAS

UPDATE NOTE ONLY TWO HAVE METAL CENTERS. YET BOTH ARE DIFFERENT HOLE SIZES SHOWING
THAT THE EXTRA PARTS ARE A MIX OF TWO MODELS OF THE BENRUS JUMP FURTHER THE SAME
GOES WITH HOUR WHEELS. IN FACT THE HOUR WHEEL TO LEFT IS THE ONLY GOOD
ONE AND IT IS DAMAGED. THE ONE FITTING THIS WATCH IS THE SMALLER CENTER

NOTE 3 MINUTE WHEELS
NOT THE MINUTE WHEEL THAT
OPERATES OFF THE CANON PINION
POWERING THE HOUR WHEEL

IN/ON THIS MOVEMENT THESE ARE DIAL SIDE
THE HOLES ARE TO SET THE SPRING HOLDER
THEY OPERATE ABOVE FACE SIDE
UNDER THE DIAL
WHICH HAS OPENINGS

rock has restored the dial on right

THERE THEY ARE
SECONDS DIAL WHEEL CENTER
POINTED WHERE MINUTE DIAL WHEEL NUMERALS SHOW
TOP WINDOW FOR JUMPING HOUR DIAL WHEEL
SANDING AND MACHINE CUTTING

*****************************************************

CASE/DIAL RESTORE BENCH
NOTE
THE STAINS ARE PERMANENT
THE LINES ARE FROM USING A STRAIGHT
EDGE RAZOR TO REMOVE PAINT AND SCRAPE CLEAN

WE ARE PREPARING TO RESTORE CASE
REPAIR MINUTE WHEEL
CUSTOM FIT STEM
TEST THE PARTS OUT

BEZEL IS GOLD FILLED
CASE IS STEEL

THIS BENRUS CASE IS SINGLE CASE –NO CASE BACK
NORMALLY REQUIRES MALE AND FEMALE TWO PART STEM
WE WILL USE THE SUPPLIED STANDARD STEM
WE WILL CUT TO FIT AND WHEN ALL IS RIGHT
PLACE CROWN ON AND HOLD STEM FROM INSIDE CASE
WHILE TURNING TO LOCK
IN EVENT IT MUST BE REMOVED
REMOVING BEZEL THEN CRYSTAL THEN DIAL
EXPOSES THE SET BRIDGE STEM ETC. SIMPLY HOLDING STEM
WITH TWEEZERS WILL ALLOW CROWN REMOVAL
REVERSE TO REINSTALL
 

THIS IS THE DIAL BEZEL IT FITS OVER MOVEMENT
DIAL FEET GO THROUGH THE HOLES

HERE SHE IS CLEANED UP
WE DO NOT WANT TO REMOVE ANY OF THE BRASS ALLOY
SO NO BUFFING SANDING OR HARSH CLEANERS
JUST A GOOD CLEANING

MOVEMENT IS OPERATING FINE. NOTE LONG STEM
WE WILL REMOVE 25% OF SHOWING PORTION
SLIP INTO INNER CASE SIDE OF STEM TUBE
MOVEMENT DROPS IS

IMMEDIATELY WE NOTE THAT THE MOVEMENT DOES NOT SEAT FLUSH

WE HAD TO USE A FLEX SHAFT WITH SANDING WHEEL
AND SAND THE FLOOR OF THE CASE
AND USE A 5 MM DIAMOND COATED FINISH STRAIGHT BUR
TO CLEAN AND ALIGN THE STEM TUBE.
NOTE THE STEM IS NEAR PERFECT
[END HAS TO BE SANDS TO CONE FINISH]

WE LAY THE INNER [DIAL] HOLD BEZEL?
WE NOTE THAT THE HOUR DIAL RING AFTER HOURS AND HOURS OF WORK
STILL SETS OFF CENTER. THERE ARE TWO DIALS WITH “**STAR” WHEELS
ONLY ONE HAS THE CORRECT SIZE STAR WHEEL
IT WAS REPAIRED AND TO REMOVER THE OUTER DIAL FROM THE
CENTER PIECE COULD MEAN BREAKAGE 

*NOT THE SECONDS STAR WHEEL

NOTE THE STAINING
THAT IS A POOR REPAIR THE EPOXY OR WHATEVER WAS UTILIZED TRANSFERRED
THE COPPER CENTER PIECE IS THE STAR WHEEL ON BACK
TO REMOVE THE DIAL FROM THIS CENTER PIECE, DUE TO PRIOR USE OF EPOXY
WOULD DAMAGE THE HOUR WHEEL.   

WE HAVE BEEN TRYING TO FIGURE HOW TO GET THE HOUR WHEEL
TO POSITION AT 12 AND 3. AS IN NUMBERS CENTER AT 12 POS
THE WHEEL WAS GLUED TO THE STAR WHEEL/GEAR ON BACK THAT
ACTUALLY TURNS THE HOUR WHEEL. IF IT WERE NOT ALREADY PLACED AS IT IS
PLACING THE WHEEL ON THE CANON PINION, ROTATING WITH CROWN UNTIL IT CLICKED
TO NEXT NUMBER, THEN PLACING A SLOW DRY JEWELERS CEMENT
AND DROPPING THE HOUR WHEEL POSITIONED CORRECTLY WOULD ELIMINATE THE PROBLEM

NOTE HOW FAR OFF THE DIAL IS ABOVE

THE INNER DIAL HOLD RING OR BEZEL TURNS THE DIAL SO POSITION
CAN BE MODIFIED SO IT IS NOT A LOSING PROPOSITION   

WE HAVE THE MOVEMENT FITTING
WE FIT THE DIAL HOLD BEZEL
WE PLACED THE ORIGINAL FACTORY CRYSTAL
[THIS IS A SPECIAL CRYSTAL]

THE BEZEL [CASE BEZEL WITH LUGS] FITS PROPERLY

WE PLACE THE WHITE DIAL
WE ALSO INSTALLED CROWN WHICH OPERATES PROPERLY
THE RESTORED GOLD BEZEL WILL BE UTILIZED AFTER WE ARE SURE ALL
PARTS OPERATE PROPERLY WITH THE CASE CLOSED AND WHEELS ARE INSTALLED

ALL THE PARTS FIT AS FAR AS CASE BEZEL MOVEMENT DIAL
ON CASE BEZEL RESTORE WITH A GOLD FILLED BEZEL
SMALL MARS, DEEP SCRATCHES AND OR MARKS  SUCH AS THAT ABOVE THE “9?
AREA CANNOT BE REPAIRED. THE POSITION OF DIAL IS SET BY MOVING THE HOLD BEZEL
