Amscope SM-3T

This is where I spend 95% of my time working on watch movements.

Combined with the barlow lens, this is a great value.

Working under a microscope allows you to see and make the smallest adjustments in the escapement.

AmScope SM-4TPZ

I have recently switched to the SM-4TPZ

This is the same as the Sm-3T except you can see through both eye pieces when using a camera.

0.7x-4.5x zoom objective provides continuous zoom magnification and longer focal length and the 0.5x Barlow lens extends the working distance.

0.5X Barlow Lens

0.5 X Barlow lens doubles working distance and field view of SM and/or SW series stereo microscopes. It cuts the magnification power by half, but doubles the working distance.

This is a must have for working on movements untder the scope.
