Hi to every one. First, sorry for my English. My name is Michael. I am from Haifa ( a small town in Israel) and I am new here. I have 3 watches from my family. One that I love is an automatic Certina  from about 1969

I need to take it to an watchmaker for maintenance. I can't find an expert around but I want to order on eBay the right oil. Its so much  types of oil then I need help!

I can post pictures also but I thing that is very known watch.

Thanks in advance and a good day!

In that case ask him what he will need. I have never heard of a watch repairer not having watch oil, its a must you cannot repair watches without oil. Moebius is the most popular make here are two links one of the links is a chart to there  web page. He might need grease as well it all in the link. Find out if he deals with a watch material suppler he can order it that way.

      Blew it with a coil

      [Myota2034] Custom simple quartz watch — PricewaterhouseCoopers On a very very different note, here is a watch from approximately 2000 when I was a Partner with PwC, Management Consulting. It was a simple “marketing watch” with a clever “vase of knowledge” that is subtly revealed on the dial as the second hand progresses. Clever for a simple watch!⌚️

      Mainspring winder question.

      By Neverenoughwatches · Posted

      I think someone else has though. Some where here using a modified perspex sheet. I may be wrong i may be right , i think it involved fitting the arbor to a pin vice. I dont have experience of the bergeon winders, are the handles not interchangeable ?

      Dial Dots

      By Neverenoughwatches · Posted

      Never tried dial dots, i always considered them as a bit of a bodge.  You are adding something that was never intended to be there. I wonder how the adhesive reacts to any part of the movement, hot summer heat and i think things might turn sticky. Most adhesive backed stuff has a tendency to soften and slide around so it may spread, i have used a lot of so called sticks all adhesives in my industry that are just not up to the job. I suppose they get you out of a problem quickly, but how permanently might that be ? I would just explain to the owner that it may or may not work. WWs other ideas are a much more permanent solution but both have their risks . I've tried milling and dial feet replacements, hmm it was ok, ive heard of folk dimpling the face , so that needs care . And i have soldered a few times , all with good results but i am very careful and I practiced it a lot.
