  1. Anyone know the equivalent Swiss watch oils for Seiko S2 & S3? I'm just about to rebuild my Seiko 5 (6119B) with the oiling chart but have run aground already. Can I substitute either one with what I already have - Molykote DX, 8200, 8217, 1300 D5 and 9010? Thanks
  2. Hello all, I'm new to this forum and very new to the hobby of watch repair. I am starting to build up a small collection of 'essential' tools needed to properly take apart and reassemble mechanical watches. In my tool collection thus far I have: set of various size screw drivers, (some custom made by me), hand puller, hand levers (I prefer these), hand press (home made), movement holder / vice (home made), stainless steel tweezers, brass tweezers and plastic tweezers (all lovingly honed to shape so that I can pick up a hair). So you can immediately see I have a very important tool missing - the oiler. Donald de Carle briefly explains how to make one, but is it worth it, or should I just buy a set on ebay for a fiver? Also, I am slightly confused as I have read in some books that the oiler is 'spade' shaped, and other reference it as being 'wish-bone' shaped. I think the latter is home made from an sewing needle, and the tip of the eye is ground off, hence the wish-bone shape? Could anyone please advise the best type for a novice like me to start off with? Also, for the purpose of practicing stripping, cleaning, reassembling and lubricating - is there a single grade oil I could use? I realize that if I were servicing a watch properly, then I would need to use several expensive types oil for different locations in the movement, but for now is there a single oil I could get away with for simplicity, and staged learning. Thank you all in advance. Regards, Deggsy.
