Tbh thats how i would do it. Being a joiner and setting up a few workshops in my time. I would have full worktops all the way around instead of seperate benches, but still a station for each process. Dedicated disassembly/assembly (clean area ) cleaning, repair , polishing and lathework.  -

I don't have a bergeon holder but thats a really narrow lip. Its the holding and removing the stem at the same time OH. One hand to hold the movement, one to press the release and one to pull out the stem. The op just needs a holder that wont damage the dial or catch the hands. -

Update on where I am at. Watch has been running at 0.0 SPD off wrist when cold, probably averaging 16 degrees, confirmed by timing over three weeks. Currently seeing a gain of -0.2 SPD on wrist though. Watch needs a small positive adjustment to the main oscillator frequency that I have just done. Let's see how that goes. -
@Michael1962Â a suggestion Michael, if I had the space I would think about planning it kinda like a kitchen on the principal of a working triangle, though for this application maybe a square. A kitchen after all is a workshop for making food. I would like to have a workbench, cleaning/polishing bench, testing bench and a machining bench. Â Tom -
I use a normal movement holder (Bergeon 4040). I've never had any problems or marked the dial. The top lip is about 1mm, so as long as you use that, there should be no problem. I don't think I've seen a second hand come that close to the edge of a dial. Â
