Pocket Watch Repair: This video is part three of the restoration of a Hamilton grade 974 pocket watch. I reassemble the watch parts and oil the jewels. I also put oil and grease on the parts of the movement that need them as I am doing the reassembly.
I show what types of oils and grease to use and what parts get different types of oil.
This is the watch from the Hamilton Green Crystal video:
