I used to fix watches and sell them on-line for a buck or two - more of a hobby than a profession.

Pics from Others most welcome ...

I did some watches some time ago. I'll have to see if I have still got the pictures. I was testing out macro at the time, so the watch is nothing special.
Here's a Hamilton military watch I serviced long long ago and modified to be a left-hander (worn on the right wrist)


"H3" denotes that the hands and hour markers are illuminated with radioactive Tritium paint and I also applied non-radioactive luminous paint to the seconds hand.

An 1876 Elgin pocket watch, which I still own:

American size #18, with white porcelain dial, hand-painted Roman numerals and Elgin Company name. Poire-style hour and minute hands. 7-jewel grade 60 gilt-finish movement, key-wound and key-set. 900-fine Coin Silver case.
