De Carle's Book, Practical Watch Repairing


Recommended Posts

My thanks to autowind for recommending Practical Watch Repairing by Donald De Carle.  I downloaded it and began to read it immediately.  This answers a lot of questions that a beginner (like myself) might have and is very clearly written.  I'm taking notes for the setting up of my shop and the tools with which to start.  Thanks again!

There are loads of tips in the book, it was his instruction about removing the crown part of a two part stem on a roamer that made me man up and pull harder than I would have done normally and guess what, it worked. He even has some pages on the Bulova Accutron. The book may be old but so are most of the watches we work on so it is still valid.

Cheers,

Vic
