i'm working on a verge PW which is missing the minute wheel. if i we're to find a replacment
and provided that the cannon pinion has 10 and the hour wheel has 36, how many teeth should the right minute wheel and pinion have?

Hi,

This topic has appeared on this board before. You will be very interested in the content of the link I have provided. Guaranteed you'l find a way to arrive at the correct tooth counts.

Let us know how you make out, and what you decide.

Incidentally, many thanks to David (labounty) who provided all the information you will ever need to know about this subject!

Regards,

much thanks....
using the formula and having CP - 10, HW - 36...
it would give me MW/MP at 40/12 that might work.
can anyone double this for me.
