Gotham Inc. 17 Jewels

Got this from the flea market





Bubble back case held by grub screws.


Takes some doing to get the back off


That's the case back


Hands off to try and get the dial out.


Finally manage to get the crown and then the movement out of the incabloc case.


The defect, Setting Lever Spring broken. Need to order this.


Taking the dial out the hard way... :)


With dial out, there still a dead end to get the winding stem off, finally I found out that this watch requires the crown to be pull to detached from stem.


The Setting Lever Spring, besides the hour wheel.


Circa 1955, below the ETA 1080 movement, there are still parts available.. :) I may need to replace the main spring too.
