I finished my first (second really) complete disassembly, cleaning, reassembly, and oiling of a mechanical watch last night! The Unitas 6376 movement. In a Caravell pocket watch that was not working but the balance was in perfect shape. A little fumbling around and some minor scratches on a screw or 2, but otherwise pretty decent for a first timer. The other pocket watch I completed a first run on was a Ward Co. with no jewels. Brass plates including a palate for that was not a fork really. 

The Unitas was pretty easy to work on and a great first run at a Swiss movement, I think. Got it pretty close on the adjustment. Need a Weishi so I can get an amplitude reading, I think.901605411_DSCN50482.thumb.JPG.0234b707cfa67ebc7298cf5da2bdb5df.JPG2136971953_DSCN50462.thumb.JPG.95fa13aa0597a77f0a47670369fdebe5.JPG2070725838_DSCN50472.thumb.JPG.29d0e29f84db75bb6a2578dbbd382179.JPG2141061305_DSCN50452.thumb.JPG.c1ad2f3baa5bc739deb2d5daa14eb0f7.JPG
