Okay, I will try to help if I have enough knowledge to write a reply to someone or if I have information to share. Thank you so much for writing a reply. Have a nice day. -
I think this is one of the two DVDs that I bought. I can't find them at the moment. I think the other one was "WORKSHOP PROCEDURES." Both were very worth watching. I remember a section on making lantern pinions that was excellent, and also a demonstration of cutting an internal ring gear. Not sure if that was on this disc or the other one. I expect you would find the DVD interesting if you have time to watch it. -

It depends on the exact movement and jewel in that. If such a size is available to buy. Not impossible, but likely a small percentage of types overall. Most of the time it's more economical to buy a replacement plate or bridge from ebay; the tooling needed to replace jewels is expensive and probably rarely used, unless you are running a dedicated watch repair business. -
Yes every single watch in the universe can be repaired. But he was asking a question about getting a parts movement. So now you get the task of showing him how to repair the watch without getting a parts movement I'm sure it shouldn't be a problem at all for someone of your skill set -
First of all, thank you for the pdf file of the book on how to replace a gem. So, if there is a problem with the ruby in the movement, should I buy a new or used movement and replace it? When I watch videos on YouTube of people fixing used watches, I feel like there should be a way to buy a gem. Is there no way to buy it?
