Vintage Ingersoll watch with a BFG 866 pin lever movement.

Vintage Ingersoll watch with a BFG 866 pin lever movement.

This watch is from the bag of non-working BFG movements I won on eBay, to use as practice. 

Markings on the dial: Ingersoll, Antimagnetic, Unbreakable Mainspring, Swiss Made.

Winder at 4o/c

The regulator pin is missing, a new part ordered (part no 307) and the Barrel is rubbing on the top plate!

Click spring in the wrong position, touching the crown wheel.

Movement dissasembled.






Cleaned parts and I have fitted new regulator, reassemble movement.
Now working fine after service!




Videos of the movement now working fine after service and new regulator, now fitted back in case.
 


Added a gold plated strap and watch completed!
