Hi everyone, I just got into watches pretty recently and just decided to “build” my own automatic watch (which I have some questions about. My watch collection consists of a citizen field watch from the Chandler collection which I thought was an amazing coincidence. I also have an old Swiss Army watch my dad gifted me and the aforementioned broken custom automatic.

Thanks for the intro @Chandler welcome to the WRT forum! I'm also relatively new and I'm in the middle of my first service of an Elgin Grade 313 movement which has been stalled for a while as I was waiting for oil and a mainspring winder. Well, my oil arrived today and luckily I picked up an identical 2nd movement so as I disassemble that one it will help me remember how to re-assemble the first one! I've posted some shots of my watches here.

There are a couple of YT videos that show how to "build" a watch from parts that you can get off eBay.
