I'm No Longer "distinguished"!


Recommended Posts

It's really strange but some people were getting confused and thinking member names were actually the title. So I removed the member title and put the member name there instead. 

But you are still a distinguished member Geo - don't worry, I have an idea :)

That's it Geo, you can now look forward to smelly trousers, selective hearing, telling everyone how good things used to be, whinging & repeating part of the last sentence that the other person has just said.

 

.............just said. Yes.

I looked up Swiss Emperor and came up with:- A VERY CLEAN WATCH EARLY MANUEL WIND SWISS MADE. .... SWISS EMPEROR STEEL WATCH AND NON SIGNED BRACELET, HANDS ARE ...

So not only is it a posh watch Will, it also comes with a Spanish guy to wind it for you.

Cheers,

Vic

You will just have to settle for Big Benjamin, now that's what I call a big clock. Myself, I am trying to remember some of the little watches, I think they used to call them cocktale watches.

Cheers,

Vic

    • Could it be an abbreviation for Denier? "Denier (/ˈdɛniər/) or den (abbreviated D), a unit of measure for the linear mass density of fibers, is the mass in grams per 9,000 metres of the fiber. The denier is based on a natural reference: a single strand of silk is approximately one denier; a 9,000-metre strand of silk weighs about one gram." The pivot gauge looks interesting, however I wouldn't trust myself to drive a pivot into a wedge incase it jams and gets damaged/snaps trying to get it free. More a comment on my ability and incompetence than the quality or design of the tool 🤣
    • @clockboy The damage on the movement much worse. The images against the green background are my watch the other 2 are from the internet. The rotor has erased the perlage. I am surprised how is this watch still running.
    • Hi All, I recently bought a few gauges on Ebay. One of those was my actual target, a roller jewel gauge. Pictured below was one of the other gauges I received. From what I gather, this one is for measuring pivots. No sure if I'm right here. A confirmation of my assumption would be great. The gauge also has an abbreviation of "DEN". I have looked around and don't find this relative to watchmaking. Any clue to what this abbreviation means? Thanks, Don
