  1. I know what you mean, sometimes these things are pretty hard to find. It's probably a bit difficult to do this as each movement has it's own type and it's parts and you won't really find one movement to show all types of parts. Here's a couple of images that should help.

  3. Quite a collection you have there, looks nice. It's almost like a "which watch doesn't belong" kinda thing with the Panerai being in quite a different category from the rest. A wonderful collection though. I have a bit of everything myself. All mainly that I bought and services as well. There's something quite different from a watch you just buy and wear to one you buy, fix, then wear... Your connected more to that watch. That's how I find myself anyway. I have a few projects I'm trying to work on but time is a luxury at times. Lol... Lovely collection nonetheless! Sent from my Z956 using Tapatalk

  4. Inspired again by @VWatchie affectionate passion for Russian watches, I just given another Vostok a total service; out of the darkness of the drawer into the daylight. This time a Komandirskie "Red star" 3AKA MO CCCP. It seems pretty original and is in nice condition, but since I'm personally not so attracted to these "golden cases", it will some day go on the Bay. Dial down; Hopefully I can make somebody happy with it and that it gets the wrist time it deserves

  5. I think is pine wood, but not sure. Not an expect, it is kind of soft wood, but not too soft. Bought two pieces of it 100 x 40 x 4 mm and 100 x 5 x 5 mm, it was enough for the bench I made. That looks nice. I was thinking about some place I could put my screwdrivers, but I have only three for now And three tweezers only.

  6. Congratulations on your achievement. I’m not a great believer of these types of exams. From previous posts, I have made about exams. Having to draw a keyless work, what is the point? Repairing a few that, will be stamped into your brain that will give you enough experience to be able to take apart and repair. I might be bias as I learned by hands on gaining experience from my master teaching me and watching him. Nothing like getting your hands dirty. The same goes for books reading how to take a watch or clock apart wont go into what could go wrong.

  9. Also, if you have a 3D printer, you could make your custom made movement holder (in this case for a 54mm/24 ligne Slava 5498 timer rattrapante 36000bph movement): Bogdan
