Hard to believe that these eight pocket watch movements have probably been dormant for at least 50 years - sitting in a drawer somewhere until the owner passed away and all their belongings went to an estate sale. Something rather magical about bringing them back to life again after all that time. I can't help but think who was using these when they were brand new and what were they doing with their time.

Well said. I feel the same way about bringing antique radio equipment back to life. What stories they both could tell...
I agree John. If only they could tell their stories?
Ahhhh... spring time...
