Hi guys,

I am not new to the watch hobby (6 years already) but I am almost completely fresh into watch repair hobby. 

I am looking forward to reading the posts about it, to ask the questions and finally to give the answers in this community.

I am 30 year old tax consultant, living in Zagreb, Croatia. In my free time I am, aside from watches, running marathons and climbing whenever I can. :)

Best regards

Silvije

Hello All, 

I've had access to the lessons now since this past December  I thought I would finally say hello! My name is Jason and live in North Dakota USA. I have a serious watch and watch repair bug. I am still very much a novice and still do not feel comfortable servicing any of my watches as of yet. In fact I am still disassembling and reassembling the Unitas 6497. I have done this only 4 times now. Not very many watchmakers in ND and believe there are only 2 in the entire state that do it professionally. 1 that I frequently speak with who is a bone fide CW21 located in Fargo informed me that the Units 6497 was the exact movement he learned on. Said tear it down and put it back together until you can do it blind folded. So that is what I am doing!I truly hope I get to know you all!

      Never and others. Yes like you I do spend a fair amount of time reading the contents of this forum. I find it better that any other. clear, lucid, no Prima Donas, and most of all an easy access without adverts. All thanks to Mark. God bless you mate. You give so much to many of us. What if? No Mark? Hypothetically. A forum. I did run a forum for a few years. Really enjoyed it, but became so engrossed that it did affect my health. I gave to to others to run. Not been back. It was very successful and rivalled a number of large paying sites. No adverts, no others but me. I did ask and listen to members comments and it worked well.    Costs Having a domain name, £10 annually.  Register the site with a forum company, free. Build the site using the forum company guide lines, free. It looked and ran almost the same a Mark's. All the same facilities. The cost was only £5 per month, but counted visits (views). If I recall, it was that price for 5,000 views. Each extra 5,000 views increased the price by £2 per month. Success was my own personal undoing. From £5 per month initially, it rose to £60 a month and looked like increasing. This was 10 years ago. I could not afford that, and asked it anyone would like to take over and someone did. I would assume that this is the price that Mark is funding for us all. His return is our continued comments on the internet about his course, and the fact that many of the big names on YouTube mention him as their Tutor. Those of us who have done, and are still using, his course, benefit. In comparison to other courses, I can't believe how cheap it is, and the value is exceptional. It is the structure that gives the value. Long may Mark reign. Ross

      Get someone local to tig it ,very easy fix and should only take a few minutes so probably wouldn’t cost much ,or failing that get it very clean and silver solder it. Dell

      Hi, The winding pin is not split, well that's how it was when I obtained the watch. The movement is front-loaded and here's a picture of where the case screws are fitted. The face picture is before I dismantled it.

      I dont think mine is. Its an idea to have them all in one place if possible, then a quick screenshot will have them saved. Unless anyone has any other ideas of how to reconnect
