Took a year, finally all working. This grail took 10 years to find all the parts. Had to buy three Tru-Beat s to make one of these work. Broken palette forks, worn out escapements, missing dead beat parts, broken cases and 70 hours of labor. Been a heroic challenge.

Sacrificed these 1040 movements.

 

Such dedication. Impressive!
And cool with tru-beat!

 

Awesome, possibly the ultimate WIS complication ( if it indeed is a complication, but you know what I mean )

 

I want to point out some features of this watch. It has the rare Tru-beat arrow seconds hand and a rail dial from 1962. The dial is same pattern as 1962 Zepher dials. Unpolished case, but really crappy rivet band : )

 

Now that's a Tru work of art
