Oh! stop being trivial, we know very well what he means wihout the need for innuendos. Not amusing. Check 'innuendos' on Google if in doubt as to its meaning.

Just to make my position clear...  I know that this isn't 30 inch, I realise that the seller doesn't quite know what they've got and is interpreting the ''' incorrectly.  No innuendo on my part was implied or even thought about.  I was just amused by the notion of what a wrist watch with a 30 inch staff would look like and thought it would also bring joy to my fellow watchmakers in these sad and depressing times.

I apologise full heartedly for any offence caused either directly or indirectly and will endeavour to refrain from these trivial posts in the future.

No apologies are due, please post whatever you like, be of a light or serious subject. 

The only thing we ask is to be respectful to other members, if it happens that sometime isn't so please be understanding, as you said it might be a consequence of sadness and depression.

      Interesting interpretation of "traditional". I would say that Loctite is definitely the up-to-date and appropriate stuff to use, however, it is a relatively modern solution. Before the advent of such esoteric solutions I believe that the "traditional" thread locker of choice may well have been a sugar solution. Once applied the water would evaporate and the sugar would crystalise, locking the threads tight.

      @steve1811uk close but no cigar 🙂 I don't smoke anyway. I checked in my stock of parts and that's the closest I got to your dimensions. Good luck in your search. @RichardHarris123 I have an accumulation of all sorts of odds and ends that I acquired as a result of buying up the tail ends of old watchmakers estates. Usually after all of the great stuff has been stripped out, which means that the sweepings off of the workshop floor can be had for peanuts, but if you have the patience, can often be found to contain gold (both literally and figuratively 🙂 ). These came to me through on of those purchases. I doubt that I will personally be able to make use of even 10% of my accumulated stock, but having it, and knowing what I have, means that I can at least pass bits on to those who can use it whenever possible.

      Hi and thank-you for your suggestions, as per Mark's instructions I checked my browser "Safari" and spell check and grammar was not ticked. So all sorted. Thanks CJ

      As an alternative, clear nail Polish, the advantage is you can have a manicure at the same time.

      I use Grammarly. It works really well and If English is not your first language, you will also receive help with formulations. There is a free version that covers most of my needs. It installs as a plug-in and works with all browsers and word processors.
