I'd presume it would be to just get a more secure seal.

That was my first guess, but there is the stem passing through the second barrier.  I did not investigate to see if there were some sort of oring there.

I am fixing this for a friend.  He noticed the watch was running slow, so he opened it up to "fix" it.  When he put the back on, the inner oring twisted and got in the way of the autowind weight.  I had to replace both orings.

      Regulating is too touchy

      By HectorLooi · Posted

      The terminal curve of your hairspring might be distorted. If the curve is perfect, the hairspring should remain in the centre if the gap of the regulator pins when the regulator arm is moved along the entire curve. And adjusting the rate should not affect the beat error. However, reshaping the terminal curve is not easy stuff. Maybe at this beginner's level, getting the watch running is already a commendable achievement.

      Not that kind of backup.  We're talking about a continuity plan if this platform is abandoned or withdrawn.

      my understanding is message boards don't really use much space at all if they're basically just text. as why their websites out there that will give you free message boards of course they control the advertising but they're just text based I thought the message board already was backed up in fact was backed up multiple times? One of the things that is a real killer for message boards is file attachments. As people get faster computers they think nothing of attaching big files. Then we get a lot of big files reattached multiple times a somebody new post the question we will post things again and again and I mentioned there's a heck of a lot of file duplication it be nice to figure out some place to put all the files and not have them on the message board at all. then? The last time I checked Facebook maybe I wasn't paying attention to something? So I just now checked his Facebook watch repair group he was last seen on the 14th and I just don't remember this picture? Maybe could that be what's distracting him?  although he is on the Facebook group may be just doesn't like us anymore?

      Sorry I don't know much about clocks and this post seams to have been overlooked.  Hopefully someone will pick it up now.
