Hello friends,

connected to some questions I raised in a thread about JLC cal 916 (see here: https://www.watchrepairtalk.com/topic/29824-jaeger-lecoultre-calibre-916-memovox/?do=findComment&comment=253043), I'm starting this topic about Moebius Lubeta V106 for oscillating weight ball bearings -- not to be confused with V105 for reversing wheels.

Does anyone know more? As in, what it consists of?

 

I'm asking because Lubeta V105 can be "recreated" by mixing benzine and 9010.

I wonder if Lubeta V106 is also a basic mix like that.... and stumbled on the service guide for the JLC calibre 918. Interestingly, the "create" an immersion lubricant with benzine and D5 oil. Could this be what V106 is??

      Can someone please help me identify this tool?

      Ok. I did a brave thing and checked the apparatus from all sides. Turns out it is a watch tool, Gem pat no 435111, a bracelet cutter indeed. Thanks for all the guesses. I really don't see how it works and to be honest I don't really care. I like how it looks so I'll stick with it.

      Another option is to use boric acid and mix it with denatured alcohol. Prevents scale buildup as well

      Stuck in a Repair Scam

      Jumping in here, you are upset about the way the whole industry works, I get that and I do agree to a point. I would not call it a scam though, if I have a service with parts you can only get from me then you either pay my price or don’t, it is literally as simple as that.   as has been pointed out the movement is pretty standard, 3rd party crowns will have a close match as will case tubes. Find the parts, buy the tools and fix it yourself or find an independent watchmaker who quotes you a price that is acceptable to you.   this forum is a respectful and supportive place to be if you want to be involved and learn about watchmaking, we even support the drive by folks who post a question, get an answer and are never seen again.    Tom

      I think most of this boils down to what constitutes a 'scam' vs the old excuse for appalling ethics; 'it's just business'. According to the OED, a scam is a dishonest business practice. In my opinion, trying to create a situation in which someone has no option other than to pay for expensive work that is knowingly unnecessary is a knowingly dishonest business practice. I can't help but feel, having now interacted with a fair few 'watch people', that this kind of behaviour has been somewhat normalized and the irritation seems to come from having it pointed out by a dumb customer/layperson like me. There are no mental gymnastics capable of convincing me that a service and a small part that's relatively cheap and very easy to install should cost almost a thousand dollars. If that's what some people within the watch industry feel is reasonable, we'll have to agree to disagree.

      Definitely some kind of guillotine, for cutting  pins OH ?  Might not be watch related but the new one looks similar and I've seen vintage ones that almost match up.  Obviously its completely useless so i think the OP should send it my way and i will dispose of it responsibly .
