J.Eric 693 Posted January 16, 2013 Hi Guys! Last week I picked up a Rolex 16234 DateJust from a fellow member for its jubilee bracelet. The watch itself was not working. Well I had some free time this morning so i started to tinker with it. What I found was screw tangled up in the gear train. Screw out and it's been fine for the past two hours. Here are a few pics........... Originally... Movement out... This is the screw... All put back together... And of coarse, the hands got new lume... Thanks for looking!!!

sequoia 0 Posted January 16, 2013 Did you put the screw back in it's rightful place or was it an extra? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
J.Eric 693 Posted January 16, 2013 Yes, I figured out where it went. It held down the plate that covers the main spring. Still keeping accurate time for 7 hours now!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
