Hello from Stuttgart/Germany

I‘d like to send greatings to all members and moderators here. My name is Karl and I enjoy my retirement after many active years as a mechanical engineer. My first steps in servicing watches as a hobbyist are about 30 years ago. At that time I had to learn from books and by doing (and destroying…). Meanwhile I watch the fantastic youtube tutorials which brought my interest in watchmaking up again.

After successfully servicing a Citizen ladies automatic and a Rx 3135 clone I started servicing my JLC with the 889/1 caliber. I stranded yesterday with oiling the combined bushings in which the escape wheel is running. This problem lead me to this forum and to my first question that I will post in a minute.

Regards Karl

Thanks for the intro @Kalanag 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.

There was a time when I also wrangled mechanical engineering projects but like you, I'm also now retired. Watch projects are now something to keep me busy. Maybe when the pandemic lightens up I'll go back to travel?
