4 foot 992 missing set lever... 974 four foot set lever should fit too.
Hi all,

I managed to buy a running "but not checked for accuracy" 992 that indeed runs like a champ and is correct twice a day if I don't wind it.

It turns out the set lever is gone and I have no other similar movements to scavenge from or to even compare for a replacement part.

Can you point me in the right direction?

Paul-

I may have one, but I won't be able to check until monday or tuesday.

Thanks,

Jared

With a little filing that 992 lever from the later models would probably work. It is interesting how Hamilton came up with such a simplified Lever set assembly design.

It looks like the 974 four foot model uses the same pillar plate and set lever if that is easier to find.

Thanks a mil,

Paul
