My grandfather gave this pocket watch to me over Christmas saying that it runs, but only for ~24h. I have no idea how long this would be expected to run on one wind, but I'm pretty certain the first thing it needs is a clean and lube given its age and how fast it is set. Anyone got a suggestion for where I can get this looked at?
