The Chinese 2650g (so ubiquitous, no factory is willing to take responsibility and put their name on it, it seems) is a low cost, skeletonized 19 jewel watch movement found in many modern pocket watch movements. In this case, it doesn't run for even a full day, and isn't very accurate even when it does run, so it's useless unless I can make it work better. So let's do a teardown, clean, oil it afresh and see if I can't make this into a usable, great value timepiece!
