Yes watchie , the indirect center seconds wheel. Also known as a sweep wheel remover. If you zoom in to pullers you will see one plain bent puller and the other is split to bridge over one of the spokes. Cousins have been out of them for ages , they say the manufacturer for them for bergeon is no longer in business. Another company is supposed to stepping in whenever that might be. The new ones dont look as well made as the vintage ones, but thats standard these days. I know you prefer the old swiss tools anyway. -
I believe railroad timekeeping was better than 30s per week? As long as the watches are fully jewelled, I imagine that with a nice big balance, the timekeeping should be pretty good on pocket watches. I have a couple of Waltham Riversides, 17J and a 19J, with overcoil hairsprings. It's years since I cleaned them, but I remember wearing one for a couple of days, and it was running within 2s/day (without me touching the balance wheel weights). -
Is that the presto used to remove press-fitted wheels having five spokes? -

I like calibre dedicated holders, i have a strong interest in the Smiths brand and I have just joined a men in sheds group at the end of my road, i am sure my waffle helped me to jump the queue as initially he said there was a waiting list of around 50, should i feel guilty ?They have two 3d printers so that is going to be another learning curve for me. -
If this is the clock you posted about first how about trying an artist. Can the numbers be removed, sometimes they are riveted on which is not hard to remove them.
