The Movado Caliber 5 is a vintage Swiss mechanical watch movement that interests collectors, restorers, and hobbyist watchmakers. Preserving a timepiece powered by this calibre requires careful handling, appropriate replacement components, and an understanding of its mechanical construction. Original spare parts are particularly valuable when restoring vintage watches while retaining their historical character.
Essential Spare Parts

Escapement Parts: The pallet fork, escape wheel, and associated components regulate the release of stored energy.
