·Hello, my little problem:
I have a stem with crown removed from a caliber 861, because I had the case of the watch laser welded (looks gorgeous by the way, pictures follow) in a different country and no watchmaker available at that time
Now I want to put the stem back inside, but I am facing following problem: The crown with stem slides into the movement, I can set the hour & minute hand but I am unable to wind the movement in order to „charge it“. Furthermore I have the impression that the stem is not completely back in the movement (maybe 1-2 mm )
I’ve read about the common mistake to „overturn“ the screw of the stem , and tried to avoid this. Maybe I wasn’t careful enough?
Thanks for any advice
