I took a few pictures of all my lathes. 13 in all, need to lighten the load eventually. Love the ones with the Countershafts: plenty of control.6e2e700f6d44d4fb297dd779e30f9cba.jpg

 I've only got three, which now reinforces I don't really have a problem!

You're definitely 'normal' .  sad to say, well more semi embarrassed to say, I'm at I think 16 now - from a 5000 lb DSG to a 6mm watchmakers and all points in between.  The plan is to pare it down to 11.  I rationalize its not hoarding as there is little duplication, different sizes, different tooling and so on...well ok, there is some duplication, but they're all near and dear :wacko:

Very funny Mark. I have a number of large wall units that I used for music recording back in the day and converted 2 for watchmaking.2f6aa57a21ccd87f920e5f9bee3d3ec5.jpgf2012f6555c2cb8de416addc9b95b0e1.jpg

    • Welcome to the forum Dan, enjoy.
    • H Watch Repairers—is there is a ‘standard format’ for the service marks or codes lightly engraved inside cases of pocket watches or wristwatches?   Sometimes I can see there might be a reference to year/ month but other times am confused. I’ve included an image of the rear of a 1951 Hamilton 992B Railroad pocket watch as an example. Thank you for all information you can give, Mike
    • Hi to Blackminou29–am a collector/ caretaker—good luck to you following your repair course—with hindsight I wish I’d pursued a career in both watchmaker/ jeweler fields—good luck with whatever career passion you engage.   Thank you Watchweasol for posting the amazing TZIllustratedGlossary! Best wishes, Mike
    • yes I noticed the new site and I miss the old site. It's the unfortunate problem of the Internet here today gone tomorrow sometimes some of the stuff gets backed up and sometimes well it does not then the problem with the early Seiko's were there were not necessarily designed for distribution across the planet and as such there is no customer support for them. So trying to find early stuff like technical information or sometimes even parts list for older Seiko is is problematic. But I did find you a you tube video. A quick look he seems to take a heck of a lot of time to actually get to the service single I did not watch all that but it does look like he did disassemble or started to say there's a tiny bit here  
    • RichardHarris123: Hello and welcome from Leeds, England.  I have family all over Australia, went as £10 poms Thanks Richard. Hope you’re able to visit your family here and that they’ve all done well 🙂 My relatives arrived from England in the 1790s transported on the ‘Second & Third Fleets’—a story of timber sailing ships, of convicts and doing well in this huge Country of Australia. When I visited the UK in the 1980s, I was too young to comprehend the depth and breadth of its history…  Best wishes, Mike William Chapman, my 4th great Grandad’s charges, at age 23 read at the Old Bailey; sentenced to 7 years of transportation to Sydney.
