hi all, I have a very rare watch for a Borgward Isabella Coupe.
I cleand the movement and repaired the electrical part and everything is working as it supposed to do. every 30 seconds the movement will be rewind agaim when the contact get power
today I wanted to put everything together but the problem is, How to set the time of that watch? if I press the buttom from the glas, it will be firing in the minute hand but I can’t set the time because the wheels are staying connected and the anchore with the excape wheel will block it and there isn’t something to free the wheels. any Ideas?

What a beautiful car and beautiful clock.
Alas I can't help, but you could connect it to the car at one minute to one.

it belongs to a fiend of my.
the problem is solved with the help of another forum. the minute pinion wheel was tight after I put it in some
cleaning oil it came loose again. now I have to put everything together again and the time should set again.

@tafari , did you buy a new toy (car) or are you helping someone restore his car?

[mention]Tanukjaju [/mention], The car is for a friend of my, the watch was missing and he found one for a good price but not working. so he gave it to me to make it working again. I’m sure when I’m now finished it will work perfect again.Tanukjaju wrote:[mention]tafari[/mention] , did you buy a new toy (car) or are you helping someone restore his car?
