Always learning

[escabena]

Hello everyone, I recently found an old watch of my father's that was crying out to get out of that box and be fixed.I have always been curious so I began to investigate, read and learn everything I could about this wonderful world, including knowing how far I should go with the resources and experience I have (although the latter is more difficult to learn.... ).
I have learned many things from this forum and I will continue to learn from all of you.

Thanks to everyone who contributes their knowledge and experiences with others, they are a great help.

Greetings

Miguel.

Thank you for your introduction and welcome to this friendly forum.

We all look forward to your contributions and continued involvement. 

In this field of Horology you never stop learning. I started my apprenticeship back in the early 70's and still today I still find and see movements that I have never seen before by members that upload photos.

Welcome to the forum Miguel.

Thanks for the intro @escabena welcome to the WRT forum! I'm also relatively new and I'm in the middle of my first service of an Elgin Grade 313 movement which has been stalled for a while as I was waiting for oil and a mainspring winder. Well, my oil arrived today and luckily I picked up an identical 2nd movement so as I disassemble that one it will help me remember how to re-assemble the first one! I've posted some shots of my watches here.
