Antique Felsenburg Alarm Pocket Watch Service and Repair

Restoration of this 127-year-old pocket watch

This very cool watch was restored to running condition. The alarm setting arm was broken off and missing. So a new part was made from a piece of copper. The watch also required two new balance jewels to correct excessive wear of the balance. The watch was then dynamically poised. A process of putting the balance wheel in poise while it is running in the watch. Setting the alarm and listening to it go off is a lot of fun.
