I love the movement holder, i nearly won one just like it on ebay the other day but my bloody phone crashed at the end. I was rather pissed off   about it 😤

A ? At first i thought some kind  of lapping wheel, thought the stud was an arbor, but no. B - a staking block ? C - homemade tool.  D- are these reaming tools ? Countersinks. E- a vice for hand broaching ?. F and  G - for turning a balance staff on its balancewheel for repivotting like a jacot.

May not all be correct lol. Based on tools that  I've seen similar.

A. Looks like soft leather for the inside of crystals.

What would this be for ? Watch repairers make all sorts of home made tools to suit how they work some of which can only be guessed as to their use. As soon as I started repairing I was doing the same. I come up with all sorts of crazy ideas. Some work some don't 😉

Just trying to be funny here, but #3 looks like the end of an old wooden crutch that was cut down and threaded at the top =D

Good examples of overengineered and under-engineered. 

Love seeing cool tools and figuring out what they are used for. Thanks for sharing, Mark!
