HG Harris does a marvelous job explaining the parts and methods to fix a watch or clock. While the book discusses it as a hobbyist rather than as a professional horologist, I am still somewhat daunted by the instructions. Also, with the toolset required, there is a pretty high wall set for access to the wonderful world of clock and watch repair.
