I really couldn't figure out which group this question should go in probably shouldn't even be here?

I was noticing the watch repair channel at the link below hasn't posted a new video in several months? it's a definite concern from last year when people went permanently missing and a YouTube channel abandoned for several months is definitely concern. so what anyone know what happened to mark and whether he's okay?

From what I can see, the last time Mark was on WRT was on June 11th. 7 months since a video on his Youtube channel. I do hope he is ok as what he is trying to do here is promote a skillset which will be sorely missed if that was to come to pass.

I did send him a PM awhile back asking him something about WRT, but he didn't reply. That's ok. If he replies, he does. If not, question sera sera.

I also have just seen his topic re Adsense.

I am unemployed at the moment. I just wish that I could contribute at the moment. I am a moderator on another forum and we have many people on there that use the service of the forum, but never join and pay as a member.

Here's the much awaited update from Mark:

         
Watch Repair Lessons

New Course Development. 

I hope you are all well. 

Today I have posted five new course videos. You may notice that they are for a different level - Level 5. Well, this is because there is so much content in the Chronograph teaching that I have had no choice but to separate the Automatic/Calendar teaching from the Chronograph.

So I am actually working on two new Levels, both 4 and 5 and they will be released together as soon as possible.

Because it has been quite some time, I am leaving all the previous Chronograph level (level5) videos published so that you may catch up. 

Next week, I will be releasing several more lessons and the extent of content will be made very clear to you in lesson C5.2.0

For now, here are a list of current videos available for review by Patron 10 and Patron 25 members...

C5.1.0 The Chronograph Mechanism

C5.1.1 The Chronograph Components

C5.1.2 Driving The Chronograph

C5.1.3 The Chronograph Train

C5.1.4 The Pillar Wheel

C5.1.5 The Coupling Clutch

C5.1.6 The Return Hammer

C5.1.7 The Sliding Gear

C5.1.8 The Blocking Lever

C5.1.9 Hour Recording

C5.1.10 Summary

That is exciting, although I am still an amateur and don’t think I should get anywhere close to chronograph servicing anytime soon. Basic movements already require so much dexterity and care!

Do you think Mark will work also on the 7750?

      Eta 2970-1 rotor mount stops watch

      By Dmitry · Posted

      Hello, I am working on a eta 2970-1 and as soon as I screw down the rotor, the watch stops. The watch runs great without the automatic bridge, when I attach the automatic bridge, it continues to run well, but as soon as I attach the main rotor the watch stops. Can anyone please share schematics or pictures of the automatic bridge? I have looked up a few pictures online and it looks like I have assembled the bridge correctly after cleaning, but the fact that the watch stops as soon as the rotor puts counter pressure on the bridge, points me that there js something wrong with the automatic bridge. Thank you.

      B-Dip residue?

      By pent · Posted

      So I was cleaning an especially dirty balance spring with B-dip because several turns were sticking together.  However, after a wash and dry, it seems there are more turns sticking due to the B-Dip.  I can see it clearly in-between the spring turns and it is not evaporating.  I even stretched the spring upwards a bit to let them air out and they continue to stick.  This is after two washes.  You can still see the liquid between the springs. Not sure if anyone has seen this, but I don't know if this is an indicator of my dip going bad or being contaminated.  I would rise with IPA, but the stud and collet aren't pinned--they are either glued or shellacked so I won't risk it.  If I keep seeing this, I'll probably switch back to a heptane or naphtha for this type of cleaning, but I wanted to see if anyone else has seen this with B-Dip.
