:clap:EDIT 18.12.2017 : Problem solved! Go to the last post for some eyecandy
Hi guys,
Another day another problem
As some of you may remember, some time ago i posted a thread about my JF 16610lv having glued hands (maybe?).
And while trying to remove them, the sec hand got broken and it's shaft remained jammed on the sec pinion.
Well today i managed to pull the remaing part of the seconds hand out ( yey! ) and decided to install a brand new one !
All went well, i set the hands gently on position, pushed them in using a hand setting tool and voila :
What a beauty! Right ? The blue sec hand was the only one i had lying around but i plan to re-lume it in the future.
Now the bad news :
When putting the crown back in i noticed that none of the functions work. I could wind the watch and also couldn't pull the crown out in order to adjust the date or time. The crown just spins freely in both directions in it's 1st position. I removed the crown from the movement sevral times in hope it will enetually work but without any success.
The crown snaps in but neither the winding or time stetting work. I managed to pull it out evetually using a bit of force to the time setting position but it spins freely like before.
Do any of you have any clue on what could be the problem here ?
All went fine while installing the hands, i could adjust time and set the date.
