@@magicofwheels Hello well oiling the 2 winding small wheels with a synthetic GT85 oil using a toothpick as a dripper.....only did the trick....now winds correctly without the rotor spinning. Rotor still functions as it should.

I started my watchrepairing journey with an ETA 2836 which had problems with the setting wheel and I managed to fix it after I bought necessary tools and of course after I have seen your video. Before that I have seen a LOT of videos from very popular professional watchmakers/youtubers, semi-professional ones and amateur people... I also rarely comment anything but... this is the best video I have seen 1) quality 2) lightning 3) right zoom 4) very detailed explanations of lubricants, part names, tool names and important steps.. This is above great and excellent, this video is the #1 ever .. Thank you Magic of Wheels

Thank you very much. I appreciate your time taking commenting my video. I am so glad my video(s) is useful to people who are interested in watch service and repair and, hopefully, it is entertaining to those who are not.

Really enjoyed and appreciated this video. Like others have said, great camera work and explanation. Many such videos just have a cheesy soundtrack - I was glad to hear the names of the pieces (in case I need to replace something) and how and why things are done. Keep up the excellent work!

From the ETA oiling/assembly chart, it is important that the setting wheel is placed with the correct side up. To me both sides look the same. How do you know which is the correct side up?

Thank you for your comment. One good thing doing the video is that I can always go back and look into detail in case I might forget. 😜 😜

Youre right, i enjoyed every minute😁 By the Way, where did you learn to service watches? Where do you get all your high quality tools? Did you buy the movement holder extra for this movement?
@magicofwheels3 жыл бұрын
Thank you for your comment. 1. I learned from online sources. It took me quite sometimes though to be able to do all these. 2. I got the tools from local store and some chinese made tools are from Aliexpress. 3. Yes, the movement holder is specifically for ETA 28xx . I knew I will deal alot with ETA 28xx movement so it is worth it to own one.

@@magicofwheels i will buy an Bergeon Movement Holder the next days. I serviced an old ETA 1080 today an the Handling with my low quality holders is absolute suboptimal:( But i encountered another Problem, thats completely new to me....the Screws🧐 With this particular Movement i had so many problems to loosen the screws....really weird. The coverplates for the Capstones couldnt be removed at all😱 Its normal that a screw is hard to loosen sometimes....but here it is every single scrwe😅

@@magicofwheels Heyho, i finished the service some days ago and everythings seems to run fine. The Beat error could be a little better, but amplitude and rate are fine. I changed the whole movement (broken balance staff pivot) for an upgraded version with incabloc and serviced that one. What a pitty i cant post a picture here.... I hope i can service such lovely Midos and other automatics, too someday. Btw. I finally ordered many new "toys" to like a Bergeon Movement Holder etc to play with😋

Sir really enjoyed ,great video with extra ordinary clarity . This eta 2836-2 movement is made up of which metal ? Is that a pure steel or brass ? If it is brass then is there any problem ?
@magicofwheels2 жыл бұрын
Thank you for your comment for the material, I am sorry not rally sure what it is:(
Please never wind the mainspring by hand, you can damage the barrel wall and result in loss of amplitude, best to use a Bergeon mainspring winder tool or buy a new mainspring with a metal retainer.
