2824 help with hands!!

[RPierce84]

Alright guys, I've got a Noob V6 or V7 116610 submariner that I'm attempting to replace the movement in.

When removing the hands, the minute and hour were both stuck to their respective pinions.

I've not been able to find another set of hands with long enough posts to reach.

The dial is spaced up to the minimum to clear the DWO.

I've attached pictures to show how much of the pinions stick above the dial.

Ok after some more digging, perhaps the original movement was using an H4 pinion? They also had long posts on the hands. So maybe the combination of the two made it all work. I have since tossed the movement so don't have it to verify height.

You May have to change the Pinion to a longer one aß you supposed.

If you cannot source hands with long posts, you need to upgrade to H4 3 parts, seconds wheel, minute wheel and hour wheel.
It's a complex task if you have no proper familiarity with watchmaking.

It's easier to buy a movement with H4 out of the box or ask a watchmaker to swap those parts.
