Well in the back of one of my draws,i Found a slim sekonda pocket watch, Reketa 2209. Not too sure why I decided to fix it up,other than the fact that it wasn't working. Needed a mainspring or so I thought, hmmm teeth missing on the barrel, fixed that and then I found that the second wheel also had teeth missing. When I tried to get the second wheel I thought iwas going mad, no 2nd wheel listed, turns out it's listed as a intermediate wheel or a transmission wheel. Well I got it working now, it's not one I would normally do but, well a change is as good as a rest. I had a look on the internet to see what was said about the movement , turns out that people don't like working on it because it has five wheels Under the plate, what a lot of rubbish, I managed it after 2 pints of Stella, and it's running like a dream. I thought I have a 1/2 decent picture of the dial but I can't find one, but to look at the dial it looks like any other sekonda watch.
