Where does this part go?

[spazthecat]

So, in a fit of madness, I decided to tear down, clean and put a DG2813 back together. Partly because I was board and partly to just see how it is put together.

Unfortunately, I didn't take good enough pictures and I've got part that I have no idea where it goes. I've got the train side of the movement together. So, I'm hoping it doesn't go there....

Any ideas what this part is? Looks kind of like a hack lever on an ETA movement but from what I understand of the 2813, I don't think it serves that function.

Thanks,

Andy

@Raddave You wouldn't happen to know where to find a diagram or pic illustration like that for the DG4813 would you ?

And this is what makes this Forum and being a part of it's community so enjoyable ( and educational )
I reached out to a member that I know has extensive knowledge of movements....and I received exactly what I needed withing minutes.
Thanks junbug5150 :flowers1:

Yeah..it's a cheap "throw away" $30.00 Chinese mvt...but enquiring minds want to know.
It seems some 3 or 4 parts unknowingly stuck to the cover plate over the keyless so whether or not it's going to work is still in the air.
( though armed with some educational resources, I'm gonna give it hell. )

Thanks again, guys.

@junbug5150 I just wanted to report that your input served me well.
It went back together nicely and it did solve the problem
Thanks again.

Getting the date disc back on was a bit tough.
Is there a trick to that ?

I am impressed by work like this. I wish my hands were steady enough and my eyes good enough to do things like this. My hat's off to you!

On ETA/Clones you have to push in the spring clip that keeps the DW in place along with a plate over the keyless works. Some have plates on both sides that requires them to be unscrewed. Can't say for DG4813s but I'd look for something like that.

Correct....and the DG4813 has that same little lever to push against the spring...but the recess that the date disc itself sets in isn't nearly as tall or with any top grove to "cradle" it.
There's a little half moon cut away on the outer edge of the keyless cover but there's no way to push that lever into the spring to "grab" it once the cover plate is on.
I found it to be quite a task...unlike the eta.
Thanks to the pics both you and @Raddave posted here I was able to save 30.00
...but of course on hands experience is priceless, so........thanks again, guys .
