Mike HodgeCouple of WWs to give info on.
I picked up a couple WW the other day and would like opinions as to whether they are worth saving. I tore into the Villereuse and it is a 7 jewel and I broke the upper pinion on the escape wheel. I do have the hands for it. It may be just a case salvage at best. The other, Tevo Watch Co., has had a metallurgist working on the back. I'm trying to learn something about WWs so I am buying some cheapies to work on/at.

Mike HodgeAnd the movement for the Tevo. The Tevo was actually running but the hands don't move.

Gary E. FosterI think they are good practice watches, parts donor movements.

Mike HodgeThanks Gary, for both responses, I'm really just getting my feet wet with WWs. I got these for $4 each and can't go too wrong.
