What diameter is it, precisely? | ||
| Gsc1ugs New member Username: Gsc1ugs Post Number: 2 Registered: 06-2013 Rating: N/A |
Movement is 30mm watch is 32mm | ||

Looks like an early caliber 449 then (which is 28.8mm), so you may want to measure it exactly to be sure. | ||

From bridge layout more likely a 9 lignes movement like 408/417/428/471 http://www.jaeger-lecoultre.org/Caliber-details/Caliber_408.jpg Hint: usually caliber number is engraved below the balance wheel. | ||

But 9 lignes is much smaller than 30mm...so a precise measurement is needed. | ||

Yes it makes sense because the movement is only 20.8 with a filler around to make watch movement with dial 30mm.. does that help you? | ||

According to that link, its a 428 is that correct? I need a cockscrew it looks to me as 5110 on that sheet is that correct? | ||
| Gsc1ugs New member Username: Gsc1ugs Post Number: 5 Registered: 06-2013 Rating: N/A |
or is it 5121? | ||

What is a cork screw? What is the part supposed to do? | ||

Sorry its a cockscrew, holds down the balance wheel pallet | ||

Can't you watchmaker provide one? Most guys usually have a lot of screws lying around and one is bound to fit just right. I think you will find it a challenge to find the part without a donor movement. | ||

I have a donor movement, drop me a line off board. | ||
