Seiko Magic Lever
In thread below this system was mentioned as being similar to the Pellaton wonding of the IWC. A post by Eightohms was referenced where some descriptions and diagrams were offered. I thought this video may help - this is from a Seiko 6309A I serviced some time ago and it shows the magic lever at work.
First though here is a shot of the mechanism - sorry this is before cleaning so please ignore the dirt.
And from the other side - you can see where the rotor is attached.
And the video of it in action.

I hope you find this useful. Here is the watch...it was in rough shape when I received it.
Cheers, Al

Great video Al and very informative, That Seiko sure is beaten up. In the video it looks like you did a great job of cleaning it up as good as new! Hopefully you restored it back to health to a happy owner. Thanks for sharing! -MW
