Movement was frozen due to to humidity, some parts were missing...glued center seconds hand as there was no tube, missing cap jewels and one hole jewel in the balance...it left a "watchmaker" a while back.
Replaced the missing parts and made a new seconds hand tube, not the easiest thing to do from a brass pin. The tiny black spot is the new tube, I made it darker with a torch to fit the rest.
Just one of the things in my queue from last year..
