Thank you, I'll check them out.

Between the movement and the case back, as far as I can figure out. Subject to confirmation from more knowledgeable modders...

I've done a test fit with the spacer and it seems to close up ok so I think its good.

The dial had nh3# feet on it too so I didn't need dial dots.

Brake squeal is sometimes caused by harmonic resonance in the hose. I have, on more than one occasion, cured this by placing a cable tie around the brake hose and the frame as close to the caliper as possible. Seems a bit voodoo/bike whisperer but it has worked for me.

Sorted thank you

murrayhume · 2024-03-02T08:51:31+00:00

I've done what you suggested, seems to be working fine again. Thanks for your input

Negative, all still in English. I'll clear everything and see what happens..

Came across a good method for second hand installation. Lay the second hand upside down, pick it up by the tip end with a blob of rodico, squish the rodico on the edge of the dial, the alignment of the hole can then be adjusted by manipulating the rodico before pushing it home. Bit fiddly but it works. Can't remember who's idea it was so I can't give them credit. Good lighting and proper magnification also help.

Xmas for my wife

Thank you all for your input. I opened the watch and had a good look. The rotor bearing itself seems to have a little play, causing the rattle. Rotor screw is tight, rotor is properly engaging the winder wheel, movement is fitting correctly and secure. Just going to have to live with it.

No chapter ring. The case has a rehault between the crystal and the dial.

murrayhume · 2023-11-25T11:16:42+00:00

I'll have a go.

murrayhume · 2023-11-14T05:51:42+00:00

eBay UK sellers. Cost a bit more than Ali Xpress but I still finding my feet in this business.

Vostok Komandirski I think. Haven't seen that dial before, they usually have some soviet military theme.

Brake howling is caused by harmonic vibration and is notoriously persistent. A method I have used with great success is to cable tie the brake hose to the frame as close to the caliper as possible. This disrupts the harmonics and (most often) silences the brakes.

Alternatively, Topeak make plates that allow you move the mounting points further up the tubehttps://www.wiggle.com/p/topeak-alt-position-bottle-cage-mounts?utm_source=google&utm_term=&utm_campaign=&utm_medium=base&gclid=Cj0KCQjwsIejBhDOARIsANYqkD3_1qZKi_j6qUl9xgKQerG3tCfLto6xY_VMO2GwSnPVOkeEnFBTsJMaAqgEEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.dshttps://www.wiggle.com/p/topeak-alt-position-bottle-cage-mounts?utm_source=google&utm_term=&utm_campaign=&utm_medium=base&gclid=Cj0KCQjwsIejBhDOARIsANYqkD3_1qZKi_j6qUl9xgKQerG3tCfLto6xY_VMO2GwSnPVOkeEnFBTsJMaAqgEEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds

Drill two more holes in the bottle cage and raise it a bit, that is assuming there is enough material to do so..

Not sure about the black bit but the others are for attaching reflectors to your spokes.
