Calendar works - Seiko 2107A

[skinnb1]

I have a ladies Seiko 2107A movement which is particularly small. I have serviced the movement and re-assembled all but the calendar works. when I look at the pictures I took before disassembly the fingers in the calendar works seem to be misplaced. Perhaps this happened when I removed the cover plate. In any case I don't understand how the mechanism works and the fingers seem to be particularly fragile so I am not sure how the finger on the date wheel is meant to be positioned. My guess is that the hole in the finger goes on one post and the spring goes round the larger post to be hooked onto the second small post. I assume that the 'jaw' in the other finger should engage with its post.

If someone could explain how it is meant to work or explain how the parts interact I would be grateful.

Thanks for any help you can give.

Have you tried flipping the finger around. Try the hole on the post and the "jaw" on the date disc.

The post is supposed to be in the valley just above where it is now...

Thanks very much. That's perfect. I had broken the spring on the Date Finger but now have a replacement date finger with spring attached so can complete the repair.
