Hi all, yes another dollar watch. Just can't say no to these cheap little noisy time pieces.
Anyways my question is how do I remove the rear winding key and time set knob? Do they just pull off? This pocket watch although a bit oxidized in the outer areas is running very well and the paper dial isn't too bad either along with the case over all and the thick glass crystal and nice blued hands. Will post more images after a total clean and assembly later today.

Thank you, Roland.

Here's the old clock back together and actually keeping decent time. It was totally seized when I recieved it and after a little oil it's up and running. Not a big buck collectable, but a pocket watch none the less.

Thx, Roland.

And a smooth back with pocket wear, but a mint hinge.
