Inserting an Incabloc Lyre Spring

[Richard1963]

Any advice or tricks to insert this spring?

Depends on how it sits . Some you can just put in. Others you need to remove the settings to put a new one in. Which movement?

ST3600.  Never got it in.  Using the movement for parts, less the shock spring.  Found that placing a very tiny ball of rodico at the base of the spring keeps it from jumping out.  It's been very successful and I can finally complete a service 100%.  Also, those Seagull ST3600 clones are pretty good these days.  After servicing they're only losing 2-3 sec, .7 ms beat error, 252 degree amplitude.  I've been wearing my current watch for a week and haven't had to set it.
