VR-630 2 weight German mechanism

This mechanism is obviously in great shape. The pivots were very hard - like a French mechanism, not like the typically soft pivots found in German mechanisms. This is the likely reason the pivots were in such great shape - I only had to lightly burnish all of the pivots except for the winding arbors!
