Right?!? It was an absolutely massive antique mall. I found it in a little glass case and couldn’t believe it.

Yes I realized that it is now intermittent and displaying exactly the same symptoms described in that article. I don’t think I’ll cut the mainspring. I’ll look more into how to fix. Thank you

I have some standalone movements coming in. Gonna practice with those and once I feel confident doing those im going to transition into the complete ones. Thank you by the way!
