hi guys I used to be rob1crazydude on here a while back totally lost my password and started facebook so decided to go with that,if you remember I had a rolex 1560 I was asking all sorts of questions about, never did get that watch finished, it sits her for lack of money for a balance complete, but life goes on, I came across a lesson on youtube and remembered how much I enjoyed talking with you folks. I had 3 eye surgeries since the last time and am going back for lasering to clear up floaters for the second time new years day, I cant believe how well my eyeballs are seeing for a change , everything had gone like it was smeared with patroleum jelly, now I have 20/15 vision out of my right eye my left one is still gone, but it has improved maybe this time will be the trick, I haven't been doing any watch repair because of this, I put on my visor yesterday and couldn't believe how well I could see, it was pretty emotional, I think we take our eyes and profession for granted,. sometimes. so maybe ill be back  soon THANKS!!! ROB

    • I think you are right wish one of the two spring should make contact do you know what one?
    • So I was cleaning an especially dirty balance spring with B-dip because several turns were sticking together.  However, after a wash and dry, it seems there are more turns sticking due to the B-Dip.  I can see it clearly in-between the spring turns and it is not evaporating.  I even stretched the spring upwards a bit to let them air out and they continue to stick.  This is after two washes.  You can still see the liquid between the springs. Not sure if anyone has seen this, but I don't know if this is an indicator of my dip going bad or being contaminated.  I would rise with IPA, but the stud and collet aren't pinned--they are either glued or shellacked so I won't risk it.  If I keep seeing this, I'll probably switch back to a heptane or naphtha for this type of cleaning, but I wanted to see if anyone else has seen this with B-Dip.

    • I only watched the start, but he's out on magnification by a factor of 10. It's 7X to 45X, not 450X
