Think I will give the old Sportsmatic 15040 an airing tomorrow: better clean it up a & bung a strap on it that's better.

Seiko SKX173, 7s26a 0029 Came to me not running, missing a roller jewel. My first complete tear down, clean and repair. Also first semi successful hairspring mangle :)

Wearing my 'party watch' made of ebay Bits: I 'pimped' the ETA 6498 movement (polished the wheels, blued the screws and made the plates curvy). Keeps perfect time but MAN it's a loud tick Yes, I know the strap's the wrong size :-)

I am also in the market for a jewelling gauge but judging by the second hand prices these things command I would imagine the new prices are astronomical so I have it in mind to make my own. I reckon that if I buy a selection of assorted size jewels and set them into a brass plate appropriately labeled I would not only end up with a cut price gauge, but I would also get a bit of practice setting jewels.1 point
