Good work brother. Whatever next? Can’t wait to see your next project.

Thanks, this was ready in the sense it didn't involve touching the movement.
As a next project I'd love to "refurbish" car boot find cheap watches, except I've got no idea of what I'm doing. The "practical watch repairing" book may be helpful to a degree, but I doubt I'll find info (In that book or online) specific to these non classic models... Good they're cheap as I'm guessing I'll fuck things up... That said I'd love to save the rectangular one.
I'm struggling at using the eyeglass I bought, maybe a loupe on a stand would be easier?

Get a headband (metal ring) for your loupe.

Also you can get a loupe attachment, it's a wire that sits around the circumference of your head, they are very popular, I seem to be the only watchmaker not using one these days.
