Vintage alarm clock repair. This is my first attempt at clock repair. I have been reading this subject for the past few months. This clock was a great place to start my learning journey in horology. #clockrepair #vintage #restoration
With due respect The movement was not completely dismantled, which is a necessity for such time pieces. The points of the balance staff should be honed to a conical shape. The wear and tear from the plates to be plugged and springs to be greased. In fact what you have displayed is not the work if a professional but a novice.Why learn the trade correctly and make a name and money too.All the best.
Thank you for your honesty and advice. I do admit, what I know now is not what I knew then. Its been a learning process. As I do it more hopefully I'll get better. 🤣 I am an apprentice with nothing more than a few old books to learn from. At the moment I'm working on another movment and it will be 100% taken apart. It will be a better repair 👍 Do you do repairs or make videos? any advice is welcome Cheers 🍻
