So, my beloved PAM 111H has decided to hate me this morning. Lol! It winds up fine but, does not catch to adjust the time no matter where I put it! Argh!

some kindly advise would be most welcome thanks!

Ok! I think I have got things sorted out.

thanks to this tut on RWG:

https://www.rwg.bz/board/index.php?/topic/61645-servicing-a-6497-movement-building-a-watch-part1/

seems my stem is a bit too narrow or has worn enough over time to not catch the setting lever. So, I was able to get it set today so I don’t look stupid wearing. But, I will have to order a new stem to replace it in order to get it working properly. On a plus side, I learned a lot more about the 6497 movement and working with watch parts so I’m not as overwhelmed by the thought anymore. Great Tutorial!
