I absolutely fucked my Zeiss Nettar by oiling the mechanism. Now it’s sluggish. How to I unfuck this?

Of course! Genius.

Dunk the entire thing in 99% iso alcohol and re-oil using the correct oil.

How did you apply the oil? Did you just ejaculate oil into the mechanism or what?
What made you want to oil it?
>How to I unfuck this?
Disassemble the whole thing very very carefully and clean the oil away. Reassemble using watch oil.

The entire mechanism doesn't need to be oiled only parts of it. Apply some naptha or lighter fluid liberally in that area and try to work it.

The correct thing to do is to disassemble and clean in lighter fluid and lubricate.

This is incorrect many of these leaf shutters actually used molybdenum to lubricate them, watch oil or oil in general is too viscous and will slow the shutter mechanism down.

so just dump it in liqui moly
Fixed
