And that's how it works...

Greetings TRF,

Here are two manual winding watches I didn't wear for the past few days, obviously they aren't running anymore...





Since they stopped, I believe it would be nice to see how they're made inside...

Let's start with the vintage no-name, shall we?

Here's the empty case...



9kt gold isn't very common but I think it looks pretty nice!



The dial...



And when you flip it...







I love hairsprings!







Well, that was a lot of fun but nothing very fancy...

...Perhaps we should move on to the second one!



The beauty...



...And the beast!



And...

...

...

...

...Voilà!



There's nothing like a good ol' Landeron 48!







And again...the hairspring (running a little fast, are we?)!



I hope you guys enjoyed the photoshoot, I've promised myself to take pictures of those and thought this would be the perfect occasion!

Thank you for watching, feel free to comment!
