This time I am doing a pocket watch restoration of an antique Longines pocket watch, cal. 21-54, stainless steel model.
The mechanism of this model dates back to the year 1880-1890. Since it has a Kingdom of Serbia coat of arms on its back, I am assuming this pocket watch belongs to the pre-1914 era.
There were several issues with this pocket watch restoration:
It was extremely dirty
Glass was missing
Dial was damaged
Case front was cracked
Barrel bridge was in bad condition
Case back had a dent
Hands were missing
Top bow was in bad condition
Balance bridge needed a fix.
Please let me know what you think about my pocket watch restoration in the comments below the video.
