This watch was bought for the sole purpose of me taking it apart so I could see if I would be able to get it back together again this is the second time I've taken it apart and put it back to its original condition. It won't run and is missing the minute hand plus as far as I can tell one of the gears that is used to set the watch with.
it doesn't take a lot of tools some very small screw drivers, a pair of tweezers or two, something to hold the thing with helps I don't have a block yet.
This project was start when I got a bug to fix my Dad's watch or to see what was wrong with it.
My first go round time score was 5 hours to put it back together, this time was less then an hour but I figured that if I flipped the top plate and put all the wheels on it along with the pallet fork that it would go together a lot easier.
here it is as I received it in the mail.
That looks like a very nice watch!
