Repairing a 1950s Breguet Type XX - and making a flyback!

Описание: #making watch parts #breguet type xx #flyback
Today we have something rare on the bench; Matt's Breguet Type XX chronograph from the early 1950s! The Type XX was commissioned by the French military and came in a few different versions and as we will see, Matt's one has a few issues, chief among them that it does not have the flyback function. So let's make one!

Did you ever see anyone making parts for a watch and creating a new function for it? We will have to make four parts for this watch, with the smallest one having features as small as 0.5mm. Making parts for watches is real watchmaking and something you don't see often. It's a dying art also, as watches nowadays are made with parts that cannot be easily remade by hand or simple machinery.

Join Stian for a rebuild of this historic watch as we delve into real watchmaking. As always there will be a few detours and tangents as we proceed, among them Stomach Flu vacations and helium voices :)
