Welcome to the forum... Good luck with the Timex. -
I unfortunately hear the salespeople in the store and sapphires definitely the way to go. Yes they can be broken but it's much more difficult than glass.

Interesting philosophy I like that but what if, I know this is extremely unlikely after all it's not like they're easy to move what if somebody moved them before you worked on the watch?

A helpful way in aid of assembly is to place all the wheels in their respective places, place to plate on the top and fit a couple of the nuts onto the pillars. This stops all the wheels wobbling about as they are lightly held by the plate, you can manoeuvre the pivots into their holes, using a tool , usually home made or can be bought on eBay. I made my own. As the pivots align and fall into place screw the nuts down a bit to keep up the tension on the plate untill all wheels are in place then tighten down sufficiently to keep the plate in place whilst checking the end shake on ALL wheels and their location when all is good only then tighten down the plate. -
I'd say my Pultra 10 lathe. It is just so well made and everything fits so tightly together.
