I have a formaly RESRICTED tech. manual on this pocketwatch.

It is 33 pages; 11X8 1/2 in. and has exploded illistrated parts breakdown, and pictures of step by step repairs, with illistrations and sequense of events of operation.

John J. Flahive IIIHi Mike,
Welcome to the 185! I could scan in a copy of the manual and provide it to IHC185ers.
Also, do have any parts for the 4992Bs? I am in need of a crown for a silver case.
I have lots of pocket watch parts - let me know if you need something, and I can check.

Frank KusumotoI would scan it and put it on the web here at IHC185, since that's my job. I scan at 300 dpi so if someone prints it out the quality will be very good.
UPDATE! HERE IT IS...

Michael W. KlippFrank; I will leave the rest up to you if that's OK. I'll send it USPS Priority.
It really is a super manual.
