## Product Description
The **SEIKO (SII) NH35/NH36/NH37/NH38/NH39 Pawl Lever (#0831183)** is a genuine Japanese-made component for the popular NH series automatic movements. Also known as the **“Magic Lever,”** this is the core component of Seiko’s proprietary bidirectional automatic winding system—a simple yet highly efficient mechanism that converts rotor movement in **both directions** into energy to wind the mainspring . This brand new original part is essential for watchmakers restoring proper automatic winding function when the original pawl lever becomes worn or damaged .
## Features & Function

- **Magic Lever system restoration** – ensuring proper engagement of the lever mechanism for consistent power delivery
- Suitable for **professional watchmakers** and **experienced repair technicians**
## FAQs
**1. Is this a genuine Seiko/SII part?**
Yes, this is a **genuine Seiko (SII/TMI) factory part** made in Japan. The NH series is manufactured by Seiko Instruments Inc. (SII) and distributed by Time Module Inc. (TMI). The part number **0831183** is the official Seiko designation for the Pawl Lever in the NH3 series technical documentation .
**2. What is the “Magic Lever” and how does it work?**
The Magic Lever (pawl lever) is Seiko’s proprietary bidirectional automatic winding system introduced in 1959 . Unlike conventional Swiss-style systems that use complex reverser gears, the Magic Lever is a specially shaped double-ended pawl that picks up rotor motion in **both clockwise and counterclockwise directions** and transfers it efficiently to the winding mechanism . This results in faster winding with fewer parts—a hallmark of Seiko’s “smart simplicity” engineering philosophy .
**3. Which movements is this pawl lever compatible with?**
This pawl lever is compatible with **Seiko NH35, NH36, NH37, NH38, and NH39** movements . These are all based on the same NH35 architecture, with differences in complications (date, day-date, 24-hour indicator, open heart/skeleton) . The Magic Lever winding system is shared across all these calibers .
