WATCH TAGS
Tags are used by a watchmaker to identify a customer’s watch during repair. These tags may be plain, in which case you will fill in the desired information, such as name, date, charge and so forth. More elaborate tags include a tag number, space for explanation of work performed, and the like. Tags are excellent for the beginner to use in repairs made in his practice work.
ROLLER JEWELS
When doing repair work it is desirable to have an assortment of roller jewels in a complete range of sizes, including both short and long jewels to fit both single and double rollers. The “D”-shape jewels are the most commonly used. They are gauged in 1/100 mm.
