Fallen off
Hi C. Mayorkas,
Best you contact Montres Journe directly. Their email is: info @ fpjourne .com (please remove the spaces first).
Just curious, what do you mean the remontoir has fallen off? Guess you mean the winding crown at 12 o'clock.
Sorry to hear you are having trouble. This should be easily corrected.
chronometre a resonance 45/99

An artist's attitude
Thank you for your prompt reply. To be a child, in my eyes, isn't an insult. I still apologise if you felt offended. If I have run into one of the "lemon or 2 in the batch that sneaked out of the assembly line" - to quote you- I hope that the reaction of ...
Interesting. I have never heard "remontoir" used this way ...
... but only to refer to a mechanism to regularize the flow of power from the main barrel to the escapement. Anyway, hope your watch gets fixed soon. Best Andreas
in normal French
"remontoir" simply means winder, i.e. the winding crown of a watch. What we often call a remontoir is just the shortened version of "remontoir d'égalité", which indeed regulates the flow of energy from the mainpring to the escapement. A friend o...
I am....
sorry to hear this.... I hope that it will be resolved soon.... my guess is that because it is platinum (the winder) it is more sensitive...... please let us know what happens.... cheers
