Hello from Chicago

Hi all,

I recently became interested in taking on watch repair as a hobby.  I'm a lifelong car/motorcycle collector, and have worked on all sorts of cars and bikes from the teens to modern day, so I'm used to working with my hands.  But the most precision work I've done so far is disassembling/reassembling carburetors.  

I'd like to start practicing on some inexpensive watches I've purchased by simply disassembling, cleaning, and reassembling them.  I'll be posting some questions related to this in the forum, but wanted to introduce myself first.  Thanks in advance for any guidance.  

Nick

Carburetors  are tougher..watches  will  be easy for  you.

Hi Nick, You'll enjoy watches if you can mend carbs!
