Hi all,

New to watchmaking but an amateur enthusiast. Got a broken Josmar de Luxe 317C to practice disassembly with movements.

I assumed it would have a caliber number or similar so I could find a guide but not as straightforward unfortunately. So I need help identifying the movement so I can learn more about it.

The movement has GP engraved, as well as 98, Swiss, Unadjusted and One (I) Jewel.

Hi. Other than Richard’s comment the calibre number  89 ? On the plate. There may be other information on the front plate under the dial if not post us reg size in mm and we can try the best fit books.   Welcome to the forum.

Hi,

 

Apologies for the late reply. Life kind of got in the way.

Here are the measurements to see if there's a replacement that will fit.

Thanks again,

  I don't know the caliber but it's a cheap pin pallet. 

Hi Rich, 

Ebosa also fully jewelled some of its old ebauches.

Amazing guys! 

Thank you so much.

Let's see if I can get it working again (still be good fun to tear it apart and see how it ticks)

 

Obrigado,

PHG

Hi there! In addition to Richard’s comment, the caliber number 89 on the plate is important.

    • The ones I have opened also do not have a pry point , hence the reason for the tool. The watch is clamped in the tool and a blade is screwed into the seam, the blade being chamfered lifts the back then the screw shaft is turned and the back comes off have a look on Ali express for case back removal tools
    • I don't think I need to know more about the question now, so please don't write anything related to the topic. Thank you to everyone who wrote. Have a nice day.
    • It's an exhibition back so no access as you suggest.
    • I have no experience with this watch, but looking at the pictures from the ebay listing linked above, it looks like the outer metal bezel at the back of the watch may not be part of the case proper.  It looks like the watch and strap are sandwiched together, and an inner case may push out of the rear bezel towards the front of the watch.  A case style similar to the Roamer watches where the crystal, movement and caseback pushed out through the back of an outer bezel, only in reverse - this one may push out towards the front.  To test this, you would need to hold the watch, dial down, supporting the dial side of the watch around the edge of the bezel without touching the bezel itself. Then push down carefully on the inner metal ring you can see at the back of the watch. I’m speculating here, proceed at your own risk. Hopefully someone with hands on experience of these watches can chime in! Best Regards, Mark
    • Thanks, Mark. That's the kind of reassurance many of us wanted to hear! Yes, life is unfortunately unpredictable, and it would be a shame if the many dedicated WRT: ers became stranded if, god forbid, something happened to you and WRT stopped working.
