Landeron Chronograph eccentrics adjustment

[Barnaby]

I am in the process of restoring a Landeron 50, and all the eccentrics are out of whack.

Some I've managed to adjust correctly by trial and error- the depthing between the driving wheel, coupling wheel and chronograph runner. But the others have got me going round in circles. It also seems to me that there is probably a correct order in which to adjust them.

 

So, my question is, does there exist either the original technical guide that explains how to adjust all the eccentrics, or a guide/tutorial written by anybody that explains it? (I have looked for both without success.)

And if not, can somebody please make one? (...ahem, Mark?)

It's in the Esembl-o-Graf books, at least the 51 is, and all the Landerons are pretty much the same. I used to have a link to all the books online but they've become hard to find, here's a link for the 51.

Hi there, hope this helps its from ESEMBL-O-GRAF for cal 51, as nickelsilver says they are the same, pretty much.

This may help you after you have assembled the movement

I have an L51 that was pretty beat up in my box-o-watches.  So, to practice, I took it apart, cleaned, and back together.  The problem was that the hairspring was all bungled up.  Tried to straighten it but gave up.  Found an L248 balance and cock on Ebay and snagged the hairspring from it.  The L51 is now working fine, keeping good time, but the dial is a mess and I only have the minute hand...so there is work to be done.

After seeing your post, I wonder whey I did not have to make any adjustments.  Maybe I do!!

I've serviced others where you don't need to touch them but with this one I had to replace the barrel bridge and train bridge and replace the eccentrics so I was starting from scratch essentially.
