time for the next step

after managing to make several working movements out of a bunch of 2603 movements i would like to have a watch that i can wear that i fully servised.

non of the bunch of  movements i bought to learn on had any case so i got a 3 watches with case but non of them is for the ones i worked on.

the nicest case of the tree i got was with the 2614 ha movement in it with a date function but that movement has a lot of problems one wheel has half its teeth missing and the paletfork has one of its rubys misalined.

i have found in that pile of watches tree movements that are somwhat similar.

and i mean somwhat similar, even though that all are 2614 ha movements with just a date function there are diferences.

like full or spoked wheels, spacers for the balance wheel asembly or even beveld edges on the plates.

it wil be a chalenge to make something good out of it all but it should be posible for the level of skill that i am now.

that is past amateur at the lower levels of novice, but i'm getting there, steady progres is made.

and loads of fun and satisfaction.

if anybody else has experience with 2614 ha movements and know a few tips feel free to respond.

A is the one that came in the case and i want to keep those plate and bridges all the rest should be replacable, i'll test as i clean and reasemble it.

so far so good, i managed to make a working one,(that paletfork is a real pain to install).

it is still running a bit slugish so i wil probably need to still give it a good service but we are one step closer to having a watch on my wrist.
