How to Install a Train Bridge without Breaking the Pivots
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 14 июн 2022
- In our Basic Watch Repair Series, Lesson 6 covers the functions of the power train or train of wheels. One of the most frustrating obstacles that someone new to Watch Repair assembly is fitting the train bridge onto the movement, aligning the pivots and into the pivot holes and then tightening down the rain bridge without crushing or bending the pivots.
This is the last system to cover in this manual wound watch movement and sets you up to now be able to start disassembling the watch and performing the needed inspections.

Just an old retired guy and watch enthusiast/collector who bout 4 years ago started working on them. Jumping around your vids I decided to start at the beginning. Glad I did! Learn something new every time. Great vid. Thanks.
I’m an operating engineer, I do gun smithing also even making small parts that are obsolete but this watch repair can work on your last nerve. I give you a lot of credit for your craft.
Escape is steel except for on newer tissot movements then the escapement is plastic SMH
Just wanted to say thanks for keeping the craft and artistry alive and for making new people interested in horology.
Really thought you were going to do the "it is hard to get a bridge on perfectly the first try, but oh look, I just did" and keep going from there. Thanks for the second take with your deliberate explanation of what to do when it doesn't work the first time! Found your video after getting stuck servicing a movement with a single train and barrel bridge that is being especially difficult to get seated.
Excellent stuff here. I am a jet engine mechanic and due to your great videos I have started a watch making hobby. Thank you so much.
I'm really enjoying the foundation of knowledge you're setting out for us. A lot of this information is available other places but this is concise and clear.
Alex, these videos are awesome. I have watched a lot of watch repair videos that show you stuff but don't explain anything. But with your videos I am finally understanding the function of each part and how they all interact. It's like a lightbulb going on in my brain. Thank you.
Ah these pivots....seems like if you even look at them the wrong way they will break! Fustrating as hell but we never give up, do we!?!
Pressure on Plate Way Less than You Think...lol
Many thanks for another valuable lesson! Frustration can drive anybody to bend a pivot and lamenting for "bad luck"
Thank you for the video. I learned a lot from these videos !
From Indonesia : thank you sir exelent tutorial
Man, this one was really good! How tiny these things are! Enjoying a lot your vídeos.
Thank you excellent video. Has helped a lot. Phil from New Zealand
This is a real challenge in full plate watches!
Alex, you make this look so easy. I think part of that is your years of experience, but also, that microscope really makes it easy to see. As a hobbyist, I know that will never be an option for me, but wow, that sure makes it easy to see better. I struggle at times with seeing things with the magnification that I use, but I will just have to live with that. Thank you again for these videos! 😊
You make it look so easy…….
This explanation and tutorial are fantastic, nice job!!! I tried laying my first Vostok train bridge last night and gave up for the night…seeking knowledge….I found it!!! Thanks
I like the bonus tip about the needles in peg wood. I use needles and toothpicks sometimes but putting the needle in pegwood is a great idea
