Hi  Thinking about it I think Watchwood  is nearer the mark with cascamite I had forgotten that one (used it at school) many years ago. Its a case of doing the poke test if its soft ok if its hard its cascamite and sticks like the preverbial S**t to a blanket so best to use the japanese saw method then use the paper method to re attach or put a stabiliser pin in the case as normal

At the end of the day, I repaired the hands, put it on the wall and tested and tweaked the timing.  No cleaning.  Returned it to the owner yesterday.  No charge (I dont charge anyone for my work), but she gave me a cherry pie!

I explained the situation with the glued-in bellows.  If it does start losing time, I can repair it but will have to do significant surgery and spend the money for new bellows.  She understood.
