These are perfectly acceptable to begin with. https://www.cousinsuk.com/product/value-screwdriver-sets-rotating-stands Have a look under, resources, day one tools on here. Oil/ grease wise, don't tell anyone but I started of with genetic watch oil/grease. My reasoning was, can I disassemble, clean, reassemble and the movement still runs. Once I could do that, I bought the correct lubricants. -
Universe is informational, otherwise it will decay. Do not misinterprit death of the universe, as decay. Us human beings think life is the ultimate the universe is programmed to incubate and that our computational knowledge is the ultimate, in fact our computations are limited to our brain abilities. -
@JohnR725 You had also asked about the serial numbers for the watch under repair and the “donor.” Those are 36,764,469 and 19,110,954 respectively, so not that close to each other. However, it was the balance that I was originally going to swap in, and I’ve since purchased both new staff and new hairspring. Pretty sure it’s the original balance cock and wheel currently installed. The only part I wound up using from the donor was the click spring, which had been completely disintegrated by rust in mine. 🙂 -
Thanks RichardHarris 🙏 So a half decent, mid range screwdriver set, I can then replace the blades with Bergeon blades if need be. What are the most common sizes to start off with? And a set of Dumont No5 tweezers to start me off. Assuming I’ll get different sizes and tip materials when/if I start to work on better quality movements. -

I'll have to disagree with "clearly shows" for the time being only a theory.
