Completed the rebuild of Waltham Pocket Watch Model 1883

Today I completed the rebuild of Waltham Pocket Watch Model 1883 - Movement 8911964.
Reset the roller table on the balance staff and then refitted the hairspring.

Replaced the complete balance on movement, and it started ticking straight away!

Found some hands to replace the missing ones, so will run the movement for a week to let it all settle down then check and adjust timing.

Next on the to list is to manufacture a couple of keys for the two Model 1883 Waltham Pocket watch movements I now have running in the workshop!
