Hi 

I'm a beginner.  I've been using 8200 for all but the keyless where I use grease.  I've bought 9010 and 9104 which, I believe, is synthetic D5.  It's also listed as HP1300.  My question is whether this is used on any of the wheel train?

This is how I use it (maybe others have different opinions):

HP1300: hole for the barrel arbour on the barrel bridge and on the 2nd wheel jewels.

9010: 3rd, 4th and escape wheels, balance cap jewels, pallet jewels.

On the dial side I mostly use HP1300, and Molykote on some keyless works parts.

D5 for slow stuff; 9010 for fast stuff (NEVER pallet fork); grease for sliding stuff.

Unless you have an oil chart for the specific movement.

Never pallet fork pivots, but for pallet fork jewels is ok, I mean the stones or however you call them ?
