In this second part of the Elgin pocket watch restoration, we focus entirely on the movement reassembly. After a thorough cleaning, it is time to put every gear, screw, and bridge back into its precise position.
This video covers the step-by-step process of reassembling a vintage Elgin movement, including:
Mainspring Installation: Seating the spring for optimal power reserve.
Train of Wheels: Carefully aligning the center, third, and fourth wheels.
Escapement Setup: Installing the pallet fork and checking for clean "drop."
Precise Lubrication: Applying specific horological oils (Moebius) to pivots and friction points to ensure longevity.
The Balance Wheel: The "heartbeat" returns as we install the balance and hairspring.
Whether you are a student of horology or a vintage watch enthusiast, this video provides a detailed look at the mechanical complexity of American-made Elgin timepieces.
