Tidy, quick, and accurate.
You need to allow 24 hours for the loctite to cure. Don’t screw it in early, and don’t use too much glue. I did both and it leaked and I locked the crown to the case lol.
Helpful reminder ;)
Haha 😢
During the winter, my neighbor once squirted RED Loctite into his car door locks thinking it was door lock anti-freeze lubricant. LOL
Brilliant tutorial! One cut, light sanding, perfect fit! You are a genius!
By far the best way to size your stem, you did your homework. Great video.
Thank you for helping me out - both with installing the date wheel and shortening the stem. My Sea Urchin runs now like a charm with a new movement. Great tutorial.
Very simple but very effective way to measure how much you need to cut! Thank you!
Followed your instructions to the letter and it worked perfectly. Thanks very much for showing how to do it.
Thats why it was so difficult!!! Didn’t realize they were hardened!!!! Gonna order a diamond file now thanks!
Thank you very much, this is an excellent method for trimming the stem, worked perfectly!!!
Very slick way to get the repair done. 👍
Very helpful, thank you!
Good to see you back Darak!
Hi John, thanks.
Very easy and clear video to follow.
i life short video, straight to the point. thanks for making this video
Awesome tutorial - thank you!
Thanks Darak video was essential for my first Mod... I have learned a lot from all you videos... Keep up the great work and thanks for the inspirations...
nice job. great video. thank you !
Great!! Thanks brother worked like a champ!
Great video thank you!
For the initial measurement do you completely insert the winding stem into the watch to the winding position?
Thank you .
Good stuff, worked well for me thanks..
smooth moves brother! great educational video!
Hi MrZeke, thanks.
Very helpful thank you (:
Smart and simple way to measure difference. Have another question regarding that custom painted rotor. How did you prime the rotor as it seems rotor except the weight is made of SS. I know there are some primers but they are aggresive-etching. Why did not Seiko made it's rotor like Miyota simple plain easier for applying sticker or engraving.
Thank you 🙏
A big thank you Darak for this video!
I needed to replace a stem and crown on a Seiko 5 that I purchased in the Pacific in 1984.
I scrupulously followed the explanations, adapted the length and my watch regained its functioning.
Thanks
Hi Darak,
I am replacing a new stem and crown from a Tissot PRC 200 watch. Before I cut the stem what position does the stem need be at inside the movement. When in fully, one click adjusts the time second click out changes the date. Do I need to push the stem in as far as it goes and then take a measurement, or, pull it out the two clicks and then take the measurement. Look forward to your help.Andrew.
Hi Darak! Would like to ask, for 6r15 or 6r35, does it run the same stem as NH36/ 4r36? Thanks!
Hello, great quality video! I think the length to cut is the distance from the watch case to crown, not from the crown tube to crown. This way you do not need to measure the stem and substruct the 7.56 mm from it's length. Also, it looks like you believe that the length of the stem inside the crown is the same as the length of the crown tube. If it is not, then your measurement would be inaccurate.
Is that a nh35? Cause that measurement of 7.56 to cut off is helpful.
TOP!
what about the distance that you need to take in fact for the stem to screw on ? do you measure what u need to cut off while pressing the stem crown in ?
Thanks for awesome instruction video. We have Rolex Oyster ABC co Assembled in Hong Kong Seventeen 17Jewels.We needed stem and crown inside dimension which is 0.75mm. Can you help us to find the right stem for this watch?
Thank you for good information. ^^ Please upload ETA 2824-2 overhaul video! ha please
Also when using loctite don’t turn whatever you apply loctite to backwards. Turn one way that tightens.
Hi ! Thanks for the tutorial !
I did follow every step and think I got a satisfying result I guess, everything works as it should :)
I have only question : is this normal that screwing the crown down also winds the watch a little in the same time on a NH35 movement ?
On my other automatic watch (Tudor) the unscrewed position winds the movement like any other watch but when screwing its crown down, I don't feel the movement being wound. Instead, it seems to have a more "free" movement to go down the thread and does not give the sensation that the movement is being wound.
Thanks :)
Great video. But a question. At 0:55 you say to measure between case and crown. But you seem to show measuring only to end of crown tube. Which is the correct measurement?
Crown tube!
Before I measure,do I need the crown to be fully pulled or closed?
I have a question. Are all stems the same length and thickness? and do all stems screw in all crowns? In my case I am looking to replace a stem and crown on an Orient Tristar
Where can i buy stem for my eco drivre watch so i can replace the broken one. Than you
Hi, I got a question. My watch second hand (the hand) broke while ejecting from the main module so I can see the pin half on the second hand and the other half pin from the module. Can I use the super glue to reattach the second hand onto the module? Thank you for your reply.
Dear Derick i think this would be the same as you did for mine
Question why did you pinch in the begining?
I'm going to install NH36 movement into my Seiko SKX-013. Does anyone know which crown I need for that?
Hello, im planning on replacing my crown on my skx. One thing I’m not 100% sure about is, is the thread of the crowntube damaged or the thread of the actual crown itself. Anyone got experience with this?
Man knows his caliper!
👍👍👍 🇧🇷
Do all new stems need to be cut ?
You ever figure out the answer? Seems like these popular Seikos shouldn't need to be sized like this. Ugh
Does it have to be loctite 271 or is another type ok?
Use the 222. It’s purple and for light jobs. You’ll never get it off again with what he’s using
Still trying to figure why you measured the full stem length, then removed 7.56mm from the overall length. You already know the stem had to be shortened 7.56mm, so why not just cut off that amount without measuring the uncut stem length? The 21.xxmm uncut stem length is not used in any calculation.
Because the way Darak did it you always have the finished measurement on your calipers just in case you have to remove a bit more from the stem .
La tige s’est casser dedans comment enlever le bout qui est coincé helpppp
I'm not sure why the original stem of my watch won't work? It worked before I took it apart.
I don't know if this is relevant everywhere but I noticed you used Loctite 271 on the thread. I use Loctite 263 & it states on the bottle that it replaces Loctite 270 & 271. Sorry to be so anal I just thought it may help if anyone is looking to buy it. So remember kiddies Loctite 263 if you want to be a DIY pro like myself. Cheers for the great instructional video. Easy to follow
Thank you for sharing! I thought Lume Shot was a goat, now I think I was wrong. 👍👍👍
Do NOT use red loctite. You’ll never get it off. Use the purple 222
🕰 👍
a tiny amount of loctite ..covers its all in loctite lol
Great video ! But you forgot one major and very important step and that you forgot to oil the stem at the end…….
Thank you.
No stem on this planet will wind thar watch.
Red locktite? Are you joking???
Non- removable!!!!!
Use BLUE!!! You can always undo it if you have to!!!
Or if you wanna.change your crown you just lighty heat the locktite.
:)
Is this a joke? He said measure between the case and the crown. However, he measured between the tube and the crown.
I lost my crown in my Rolex can you repair it.
