    That is a M25 movement and is a workhorse and is a hand wind not an automatic. The reason you could not move the hands is when you removed the screw holding the set lever it uncoupled it to the stem and crown. Doing that makes it so your cant adjust the time because the set lever can't push the rocking bar into time setting position. On that type of watch you would have to pull the crystal then take the movement out from the crystal side. What is holding it in place even after you bent the tabs is the seconds hand. Even if you got the movement out from the back you would still have to pull the crystal to put the seconds hand back on. Keep messing with it and you will be getting it .

    WW2 USMC helmet covers really never looked fitted and keep in mind, the first patterns for WW2 had the slits, contrary to many "historians" who assume the non-slitted version was the first pattern.

    @Blighty Vintage Just finished putting the chinstraps on my M1 shell and found the same problem you had with one of the bales not going over fully. Use your pliers to move the loop the bale is connected to over nearly flush with the shell it will move the bale over to the exact spot it needs to be at for the bale to move over completely so the chinstrap mount will flip over against the helmet when you strap both strape to each other against the back of the helmet.

      If you're still interested in finding out, yes, the 80's straps come off easily. Vietnam era straps do not, and the metal can sometimes be brittle enough to snap if you try. I personally havent had that happen but I have heard of it happening.​@huntclanhunt9697

    The strap you installed is an M1C strap for the Airborne liner, which has a snap inside the liner so the shell does not separate from the liner when jumping. It requires you to leave some space between the snap end of the strap and the buckle.

    • @Vaudeyre
      @Vaudeyre 3 года назад

      haha... yup, thats not right...that's how mine was when I bought it. It kinda makes sense in that the buckles hang down more naturally, whereas doing it the correct way, the buckles are awkward face scratchers. The paratroopers used to use tape on those buckles and on other places on the helmet to help with that, from what I understand. There's only one really good video on how to do this correctly that I've seen so far.

      @@FreeAmericaChannel I've seen Battle Park West's video and Im still not 100% sure paratroopers had their M1C chinstraps installed that way. From what I've seen in original photos the metal clips and snap ends should be facing inward snug against the rim of the liner and with the longer ends passing through the helmet loops. There should also be no slack on the snap ends.
