Courtesy of Alliance Horlogere, a video showing a 3135 being assembled. This video brings to the forefront many technical aspects of such an assembly, including the use of watchmakers' oilers and lubricants. It is long, ~20 minutes, but fascinating. Makes me appreciate the training and dedication of watchmakers all the more. Enjoy!

Wow, thats really cool. Some of the components are so tiny! It amazes me how they turn little pieces of metal into a movement. You would have to be very very patient to do that! Makes me appreciate a watchmakers even more! Thanks for sharing Jamie!
