This book's contents include: general condition of the movement;
cleaning and oiling; balance pivots; fitting a flat balance spring;
fitting a breguet balance spring; positional timing; further
considerations when fitting a spring and observing the point of
attachment; general notes on springing and timing; other methods of
positional adjustment; and, timing machines. "No writer can have
added more volumes to the horological bookshelf than Donald de
Carle, and his careful and detailed approach to the technical side
of the craft has done a great deal to improve the standard of
knowledge of a host of craftsmen, and has gained him readers in
every part of the world. The many craftsmen who are already
familiar with Mr de Carle's earlier work, Practical Watch
Repairing, will note a great similarity in the attitude of mind
behind both books, and, indeed, this latest volume is, to some
extent, a companion and a follow-on from the previous book, for it
carries the reader into what is, undoubtedly, the most exacting and
skillful aspect of all work on watches." Horological Review
