Hi! Nicola from Milano (IT)

Hey guys! This is Nicola from Milano, that smog hole in the middle of northern Italy.

 

I’m an hobbyist 30 yo “watchmaker”, I started 6 months ago when I first went to a street shop and bought some vintage watches to see out of curiosity how those tiny marvelous engineering masterpieces works.

 

I bought a bunch of tools, including a timegrapher, the infamous De Carle bible, and I started playing around.

I broke the first 2 I put my hands on. Obviously.

Shit happens when you’re a beginner and you don’t know what you’re doing..

But somehow since then I managed to dismantle and reassemble the last 3, and all I can tell is that looks like I’m totally hooked with watchmaking so far!

 

I’m now waiting for a set of Moebius oils from UK, I can’t wait to try and service one of those movements.

 

I’ve been lurking here for a couple of days, damn there are TONS of infos here. Thank you so much for putting it all together!

I hope I can learn more and more, little by little.

 

I’m glad I’ve been able to find this forum!
