Dealing with a complicated watch used to be a rare job for the
watch repairer, but with the popularity of the automatic, it is
almost commonplace. Furthermore, the increased interest in calendar
work, alarm watches, and chronographs will undoubtedly bring more
and more complicated work into the workshop. This book deals with
complicated work essentially from the repairer's point of view. The
action of each mechanism is briefly and clearly described because
understanding this is essential to proper servicing, repair and
testing for functioning. Dismantling and assembly instructions are
given, as well as oiling charts and - most important - hints on
fault-finding and their rectification. Another essential feature of
the book is that it deals with all complicated work - from the
relatively simple automatic to the triple-complicated watch with
chronograph, calendar and repeater work, and the very complicated
clock watch. Exceptional care has been taken in the preparation of
diagrams, which have been drawn from actual movements in various
stages of assembly, so that the reader can actually work with the
book illustrations beside the watch itself. As always with books by
Donald de Carle, instructions are easy to follow and there is no
reason why anyone well versed in ordinary work and able to use
watchmakers' tools should not become a specialist in complicated
watches and their repair.
