Bergeon 2802 for about 80,- euro + 18,- euro for shipping in most EU.

Sorry, I had not zoomed in enough to see that it had damage at first glance. But still the opportunity for savings if you are considering a new one!


BUT it needs new Ruby Jaws cast about 250,- euro 😞
Total 348,- Euro

New from Cousins 630,- euro

Seems like a case of "too good to be true"

I bagged this deal about a two weeks ago.  Two were marked Bergeon others marked "Jurgensen" or no markings but all Bergeon quality...steel arbors, crank handles, dowel pins and plungers in the winding drum.
 

Auction was only active for 15 mins when I saw the insanely low BIN price.

    • There is one Oris there at least, and if you could get a Unicorn for this price!??! 😄 It says that they don't work though, you might need to figure out what a Unicorn eats then. 😉 
    • I wonder whats inside, bought it blindly, not cheap at all.
    • Here's a quick Gif I made to show truing the balance using callipers. This has such a slight wobble, but is within acceptable parameters. The important thing is the balance doesn't touch or rub anything when in operation. This is an Eterna Tank. Here's a pic of the balance freshly rivetted with a new staff in the movement
    • I just poked an inflation calculator, and $5 in 2020 would be about $6 in 2024. Doesn't fit very neatly into any status codes, which stop at 5XX, but that's honestly somewhat arbitrary outside of a clever pun for those that dabble in such things. Back during the pandemic, I would spend a good chunk of idle time in the evenings scanning through hundreds of listings a night, and I would only land 1-2 a week max. I would often go months without finding something suitable. A very small percentage of the watches in the price range are worth pulling the trigger on for my purposes. The number floating through the thread here may be somewhat deceptive.
    • Hi, guys I got there in the end after several attempts using a screwdriver and Rodico, I couldn't wait for the tool to arrive and was getting pretty confident handling the stud screw without it flying away. At first, I was using far too much Rodico, and then realized you only need the smallest amount inside the screw slot. Putting the cock back onto the movement also helped as it gave me more to hold onto while my shaky hand tried to align the screw wobbling away at the end of the screwdriver😁 Anyway, job done and I can move on. Thanks again for all the advice it's really appreciated for a beginner.
