BDC, you've got me wondering if you're joshing. They are used to make nearly frictionless bearings or pivot points for the axles. I'm no watch authority but I see 7 of them. Better movements were 21 jewels, and (uncommonly), 23.

No O_D I was not joshing but I was looking for jewels on the face plate, I didn't think about being used as bearings or pivoting point. I looked at the picture of the inside of the watch and noticed some string of blue fabric in there.
