Reply To: jacot vs pivot polisher

Arutha,
It seems lately that there has been a glut of fine watchmaker tools coming out of England. Tools are becoming available like screw polishing kits, Lorch and Wolf Jahn lathes, watchmaker turns and other tools that were difficult to find over here. I am sure that many of these tools were treasures that the owners kept throughout their lives. Finding a Jacot lathe with the runners, bow and burnishing tools at the price you paid would indeed be a rare find.
