Please let me know if you can help me out.  Thanks.

 See the little sping/slither of metal that is screwed down at one end and goes to the centre to hold the seconds pinion in place.......whats that called?  I need to somehow find a new one for my model as it has broken half way, I just dont quite know where to start. I Know the 12B is a Junghans 89 calibre movement but the actual little metal part, no idea here.

How to tighten a crown?

Submitted by plainsmen on

So I was cleaning a watch and needed to unscrew the crown.  Used a tweezers to hold onto the stem and it unscrewed relatively easy.

Now I can't get it to tighten enough for the watch to function again and I'm worried if i Loctite it or something I'lll screw it up for good.

Don't have a screwdriver little enough to get the stem out... maybe if I flatten the head of a needle or something.
