[Q]1570 Calendar Wheel Cam Spring.
 
Hello

While I was assembling the Cam Spring I broke it, so I bought a new one to replace it at ebay. (Actually not a new one)
But the new one does not fit to the groove of the movement.
So I wonder if it is not a genuine part.

The left one in the picture is my old one which is perfectly fit to the groove, but the right one is a new one which is not fit to the groove.

Can you give me an opinion if the right one is genuine or not ?

Thanks in advance.

I am certainly no watchmaker

But to me, you have not inserted the part correctly in the right hand photo

That’s the point it won’t seat properly

The point is that it's not possible to set the spring properly.
I tried several times to align the spring correctly, but failed.
