    Hi@all!
    I am very happy to have been able winning the bid for a Carrera ref 3147S.
    Wearing and looking at it all the time…..

    Its Landeron 189 is running well and strong, but the reset function does not work, because the screw, that holds the lever, to which the pusher is pushing, is broken (sorry I don`t know the correct denomination in english)
    The now removed lever, the clamp plus the broken screw head are with me.
    In the movement photos I have marked where it sits. (should sit)

    Any hints where I could get this screw or anyone at least can tell the specification for it?

    Thanks for your attention!
    Franz

    Thank you David!
    Remember my questions about the white Autavia some weeks ago?
    After your hint I already had contacted Abel and he wrote very kindly back, that he does not take any work right now, I think at least not till 2017.....
    But in the meantime I found a lot of help in the watchmaker forum on WUS, so I am confident, to get this screw issue fixed and a service be done to be able to enjoy this classic piece to the fullest....
    best regards
