Re: Oils for Heuer chronoghaphs and movement holder

No one could help me suggesting how to lubricate our beautiful timekeepers?

Cheers.

: Hi all,

: on the Calibre 11 technical manual (dated 1970) four types of
: lubricants are quoted for servicing the movement:

: - Synt-a-lube 9010 (I think is Moebius Synt-a-lube 9010);
: - Bergeon KT 22 (I think is Bergeon 2588-50 silicon grease KT 22);
: - Synta-visco-lube (I think is Moebius synta-visco-lube 9024);
: - Cuypers no.3 (I have no idea);

: If someone out there is expert on making servicing by yourself
: please could you help me in finding a good watch parts website
: where I could buy those oils or their modern equivalents?

: Also, someone knows where I could buy a cheap movement holder
: specific for Calibre 11/12/15 (with integrated pushers)? I can
: find many of them for modern ETA movements (like 7750) but
: nothing for vintage Calibre11.

: I apologize if the argument has already been treated on this forum
: but I didn't find any post about this topic....

: Thanks for your precious help.

: Gianluca
