Inspecting parts to see if there's anything that is so trashed it can't be useable. Of particular interest is the auto winding system "MagicLever" as that wasn't working when it came
I put each onto a brass plate, and inspect it under high magnification with titanium tweezers. These metals are as soft or softer than the parts being worked on, so they will resist scratching.
First up is the ratchet wheel, part of the winding system that was not clicking over
It looks pretty beat, but should be OK. There's no missing or worn gears, but there's a touch of rust
Looking at the pawl lever and reduction wheel, these look real rough
These should be replaced.
I did test them out, and they do work though. So just cleaning them was enough
Inspection continued, and we ran into an issue:
The center wheel is cracked! This will be replaced
