That is great, now seeing how you did that I will not have to try to invent away to do that. I enjoy working on those old verge fusee movements. I have a nice one right now that I got everything fixed but a new hairspring.

I read your other posts about doing that too, so I am going to give it a try.

I enjoy seeing all the ways you come up with to repair these watches.

Keep it up!

Tom

Fabrizio,

You continue to amaze me with your patience and determination. I use to do things like that but at about 1000 times larger scale when I worked as a mechanic on Volkswagens about 40 years ago. You must be an inventor or someting because you are a most ingenious technician. Keep up the great post...there are those of us out there just waiting to see what you will come up with next.

Did the repair work by the way.....

Steve
