Thanks Andy - sorry for dumb question, but can I just check is the pendant tube size referred to the outer diameter of the tube on the watch case? -
Yeah those Deckels are very hard to come by. I snagged got for a bargain but had a lot of restoration work to get it how it is. Works beautifully though! Updates on the Omega. My incabloc springs came in and after a tonne of messing around I was able to install one and get the chaton back in place. Thankfully I bought 5 because 1 completely disappeared on me. This was try number 2! A check on the timegrapher and the results are disappointing. This is with zero running time so far and with the original mainspring, but I was hoping for more. But still a huge improvement from the beginning. Im going to give it a few hours or so to settle in, then I’ll check a few positions and revert back. I think more effort is required though as I have some issues in some positions. -
Clipper database? very vague recollections about software called clipper back in the DOS, C/PM days of yore Tom -
Hi all Just wondering on this question. I use one of the generic simulfocus trinocular microscope, similar to the Amscope versions, mine is a Relife. It's fitted with the usual 0.5 Barlow lens to improve working hight and came with a 0.5 camera adapter, I am also using Relife 4k camera. Everything is working well, but one thing bugs me a little and that is the camera view is not even close to the eyepiece view. For example with the microscope at its highest setting I can see a little more than a pocket watch movement but the camera only sees around 2 thirds of the movement. I did try changing the camera adapter to a 0.35 one but that made negligible difference. Is there a way to improve on the area the camera sees to come close to what the eyepiece sees, or is that standard for these scopes. Thanks for any input on this. Paul. -
Hello, left: time, seconds, of each position. If you changed the cap (not electrolytic!) from 4 to 10uF: 2.5x longer! right: number of positions in one sequence. Sure you need a watch mounted to hear ticking 😀 DIN connector: don‘t know what it is for. Frank
