BROKEN Antique POCKET WATCH RESTORED with a Make-Over!

I purchased this antique pocket watch dating back to the 1800s on eBay as a non-runner.  This timepiece was borne out of the boom heralded as the Gilded Age, where finance and industry ushered in an incredible era in American history.  

Follow along as we carefully diagnose and repair multiple issues including a broken mainspring, cracked jewel, and even tackle hairspring issues.  Enjoy!
