Any of you collect or repair old pocket watches

Pretty much as title says. I don't carry one these days but still fancy them. Never was smart enough to repair one!!

I've got a couple. One is very similar to what I carried when I was a kid back in the early '60s, and the other was my grandfathers. Both are stored away for safe keeping, and both of them still work. Nothing special about either one.

A co-worker of mine repairs them as a hobby. He fixed a couple I had that were handed down in the family. Here are a couple of pictures of the oldest one, a fusee made in the early 1800s.
