is it secured in the brass plate with shellac? or wax? I like this repair, but would a balloon chuck also work? My guess is not as well as the brass barrel you made -
I think you are right. I can see now that the case would have been blued from new with a finish similar to the inner surfaces of the opening case back. As you say, there's no easy way to match that finish at home (obviously a home chemical blue such as the gun blue isn't quite acceptable). I will stick with cleaning with soap and water in the ultrasonic and consider the tarnish to be part of its charm.

I can try a big tweezer the biggest I had in my set didn’t do the trick but I’ll check if my wife has some none watchmaking ones. -

Yes, gum netal, which actually means iron. It is thick enough to be grinded in order to remove the rust pits and then polished, but it will need blackening oxidation in the end for protection from getting rusty. The watch has nothing to do with the railways, it is the same like the 'squirrel' candys - You do not really expect to find a squirrel inside... -
I think the app is misinterpreted the noise because of the extra case construction Tom
