Forgotten FUSEE Gets a New Pivot and Restored - WHY was I TERRIFIED of this repair?

In this video, I’m working on something a little bit different. I will be repairing a fusee pocket watch in a sterling silver case. Fusee’s are scary as hell to work on, and I’ll show you why. I’ll also try to explain what a fusee is, and how it’s supposed to work. The owner of the watch would like it running again, but expectations were low. #restoration #watchrepair #pocketwatch Contact info: cspinnerwatchrepair@ Many of my tools I use are affordable.
