What an incredible post OP, your skills, photography and narrative are amazing and fascinating in equal measure.
Thank you for posting.
There's folks out there drilling a quarter of a mil holes into a pin with their hands, and I'm slashing my fingers and putting dents in the lugs trying to change a watch strap...
Seriously though, this is some really impressive and interesting stuff.

One great thing about the Internet is that it allows us watchmakers to publish our skills.
This is helping the trade to stay alive.
I am impressed by your attention to detail and undoubtable craftsmanship.
You have my greatest respect since I am only too aware of the techniques you use to bring old watches back to life.
Thank you for your detailed post.
I have a huge stock of old watch parts, especially English levers, Waltham and 1900's trench watch movements.
If I can be of any help do not hesitate to ask.
Brendan.
Hello Brendan,
Thank you for the kind words and positive feedback.
It's so refreshing to be on a forum where watchmakers act and respond to posts by other watchmakers - in a professional and courteous manner.
I will make a note of the stock you have on hand for future reference, thank you.

Never fail to be amazed at what people can do . Thank you for posting.
