A worrhy piece of information and approach for combining work and marriage Karl. My mother used to tell me how to determine if you had found the right woman " wallpaper a room together before commitment and if you can manage to do it successfully in short time and without argument then she's the one " . Maybe i should have listened, when me and my missus do it, we need to buy extra rolls, it takes us ages and then we dont talk for days afterwards 🤣. -

Bridge and more reinstalled. it lives! But the timegrapher says it is not in very good health. And here the movement reassembled. You can actually see that I still do not have complete control over my microscope camera, but I can project on a monitor and I end up taking pictures and video of the monitor. Somehow the camera doesn’t seem to like the SD card that I bought for it. Last bit that will be for tomorrow is figuring out how to put it back in the case. last bit that will be for tomorrow is figuring out how to put it back in the case. Somehow, I also think that the title for this topic is completely incorrect. It shouldn’t say service it should say disassembly and reassembly. The reason being that the movement is worse off after than before. However, I am still happy that I managed to completely disassemble it clean it not lose anything reassemble it. I was really confused about the lubrication because the Miyota tech sheet recommends something completely different from what I am used to. Places where are I expected oil show grease. And vice versa maybe I am misreading the legend. Anyway, I probably put the wrong lubrication in the wrong place, but I still got to practice grabbing tiny drops of oils and putting them precisely where I wanted I’ll call this one a success -
Lovely machine. May hammer the dent out and do a restore. Spins in a single direction and has a heater. Super stoked to get it and a bunch of other watchmaker tools In The deal.

That was the conclusion I came to when I saw the marque. The thing is, what caliber? I’m going to need a centre wheel at least and I can’t find a match, although the fact it has been narrowed down to a GP is making life a lot easier -

Yep, I think @Neverenoughwatches nailed it. Girard Perregaux & Cie [...and company]. One of my favorite makers. Constantin Girard and Marie Perregaux were a husband and wife team! Because I work alongside my wife at my day job, and have for many years, I understand the attraction and admire them.
