FOR REPAIR – until recently the manual wind movement had run strong and kept accurate time without issue. However, after most recently winding the brassed crown to fully wound status the mainspring would not unwind thus the movement wouldn’t run. This likely indicates that the mainspring needs to be replaced. After a day of remaining…

FOR REPAIR – The movement runs about 7 minutes fast by the end of its approximate 38 hour power reserve period. And while the time can be set without issue when the crown is wound too quickly it will occasionally sound like crunching lettuce. I’ve noticed that if the crown is wound very slowly this…

Vintage Louis 20 ATM Diver Watch withPatina, Submarine Case, Runs FOR PARTS/REPAIR
As a result I’ve only observed the power reserve lasting for a few hours at a time despite winding the crown 39 full revolutions. A skilled watchmaker can source and install these missing parts.

FOR REPAIR – while the movement is clean, the date wheel rolls over as it should, the time can be set without issue and the crown winds smoothly and screws down properly, the movement does not run.

Sometimes they work, sometimes they don’t. Given this and considering the movement’s unknown service history a complete overhaul…
