I got in to trouble with my memovox e872 cal.916 - since I was trying to use the date quick set something went wrong and hands blocked - and I cant set the time through the crown. Is there any simple way to fix it, or is someone able to fix it... kind regards Rafal |

Is it stuck in the wind position? |

In both wind and set - in set position its possible to set it but there is a range from 10-1 when its stuck. regards R |

The most close will be that In wind position it goes free, its stuck in set, on some range, regards R |

Seems like some setting wheel either lifted or lost some teeth! I can take a look but we only do full overhauls...so dunno if that's for you. |

Thank you, the full overhaul is even better, tomorrow I will talk with friend of mine who is a watchmaker, but if he will not be able to fix this issue I would really appreciate yours help. Thank you Rafal |

Zaf you were right - intermediate wheel have lost a tooth also clutch has to be changed, we have ordered the parts and I hope next week it will run nice, I am still looking for a crystal replacement for this watch. I really appreciate fast answers and help I got here. Rafal |

You're probably not going to find the clutch wheel, if you do...do you mind emailing me where you found it? I could stand to order a few. [email protected] Thanks. |

We already ordered the clutch (50usd) - e-mail with the phone number of them is on the way to You, so no problem I am looking for also for the original spring for p478 - we were calling couple of places and we didn't succeed so if you know someone having it and do not mind sharing the name please let me know - I have put some replacement spring but its to short and to week so the watch goes ok only for like 24h instead of 42h. My best regards Rafal |
