Servicing a vintage Girard Perregaux
I've received a Vintage Girard Perregaux for repair and servicing. Owner complaint about hearing a funny clanking sound when the watch is wounded. This watch was passed to the owner from his dad who had this watch since 1950.
It is housed in a 18K Gold Plated Case
Removing the movement for inspection
After inspection, the winding pinion is found to be faulty

Calibrating timing for the movement
Replacing the old hardened gasket
Owner wants to leave case as original as possible so nothing is done for the case except for polishing up the crystal
