Start day one of the cleaning processes today on the Waterbury Pocket Watch series N.

Items removed from the rust remover 

Leaving the items in the rust remover over has freed of the parts and once I had the parts, wheels apart I put them through a cleaning circle in the ultrasonic cleaner.

Opened up the barrel and found the Mainspring is in many pieces, so another item to add to the list (New Mainspring).

While waiting for the cleaner I carefully file and removed the stuck Hour and Minute wheels from the Dial and started to clean up the Dial.

Finally, I placed the two stuck hour & minute wheels in WD40 overnight to hopefully free them apart.
