I have a similar styled Benrus from 1963. The full numeral raised numeral dials are very similar. I love that look. It reminds me of the Cafeteria clock in my elementary school when I was a kid in the early 1960's.
The dial of the watch is also my favorite part of the watch. It has a too pretty of a face for what it was made to serve. Thanks for sharing your story!
What I find amazing is that a replacement pallet fork fits and works perfectly. There can't be much leeway when it comes to the tolerance involved with the pallet wheel.
Nice video, thank you.
Thanks !

Nicely paced. Thank you. Miene sohne im Berlin arbeit. 😮 (practicing!) so I am interested in the flea markets. The one I went to was by the canal.
Hello! By the canal one could be the Kreuzberg fleamarket? For the watches, I had best luck at Tiergarten fleamarket :)

Yeah, to me It is marvel that the 60 year old watch can still can run perfectly~
Don’t stop this
Thank you~ I will try to find more interesting watches like this to restore
