I was scrolling through some vintage (!) Memovox models and found out that the sound of some models is different than others. Theres one kind of ring that sounds more like a bell, and then there is this Vulcain Cricket type alarm. How do I know which model has which kind of sound?

Here are examples for better understanding: Cricket type: https://youtube.com/shorts/VA4j9KMQBaE?si=m-oomETjeMW3_cQM

Looking to buy a vintage Rolex soon, but how do I spot redials? I want a fully original watch.

 

Used or new doesn't really matter, I'd actually prefer a good deal with used watches.

I've had my eyes on a JLC Reverso (all the models in this price range seem fairly small tho), Omega Speedmaster, IWC DaVinci Chronograph and different Cartier Tank models.

Any other recommendations for watches, new or used, from 1000€ - 3000€?

 

Just want to dissamble and assemble it, not use it for any build or anything. I already bought a screwdiver set and tweezers, but I'm not sure if this movement was a good choice.

I've been collecting since ~1.5 years and I'm currently at 6 watches. I feel like the watch box is getting full quite fast.

 

It's a ref. 250.8.08 according to the seller
