I really do not make nor repair watches.  I design, manufacture, and repair apparatus for magicians around the world.  Many of the tools and machines that I use would be very familiar to you watch and clock folks.  Recently I was working on a design that required an intermittent action driven by a very shallow "crown gear".  Here are a few pics.  To make these gears I punched out brass discs, added the center hole, raised the rim on a die set I machined, and cut the teeth on my Chronos wheel engine.  I have tons of additional projects involving watch and clock scale techniques and tooling/machines - if anyone isinterested.
