Before & After #109 Vintage Jules Jurgensen Timepiece Restored in Watch Repair Service Center

They are in the movement to aid in reducing friction, for example, when the metal pieces and gears need to move freely, such as the wheel train rotating on a smooth surface. The more smoothly these gears more, the more accurate the movement will be.
