kolchak 17 Posted December 22, 2012 I know this topics been flogged many times but I can't find a totu to fix my problem. the crown on my 360 stopped "clicking" back in place after setting time & took much fiddling to get into winding position. I removed the CG and crown/stem just pops in & out. Tried tinkering with the set screw but that doesn't seem to do anything. I assume the stem is too long or short...maybe shave a wee bit off?

Silverspeed 10 Posted December 22, 2012 sounds like a loose setting lever screw, also used to remove the stem. Not uncommon for a 6497 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kolchak 17 Posted December 23, 2012 thanks Silver - I reviewed that thread before attempting the repair & adjusting set screw didn't matter. After some additional fiddling with placement of stem & a sharper screw driver it's fixed. thanks again! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sub standard screwdrivers are the major issue for most watch repairers! GOOD screwdrivers, SHARPENED regularly - are the answer! Offshore Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
