Hi from the Highlands of Scotland

[richardmills]

Hi all, thank you for allowing me to join this group. I have no experience of watch repair, but want to learn as I have a couple of watches that need a little attention. I've bought a basic watch repair kit, which has already proven invaluable in basic tasks such as battery replacements and link removal etc., but I'd like to expand my skill set.

I am not a big watch collector, though I do have approximately 20. 

I'm in my 50's, and for as long as I can remember, I've always wanted to get a genuine Rolex, though I don't know that I would ever justify such a purchase if money wasn't an issue, but who know, one day maybe I'll get one in need of some TLC and will be able to repair it

Hi Richard, welcome to the forum. Post a shot of your watches to the YOUR WATCH COLLECTION area.

I only have two mechanical watches the rest are quartz.

I've only been here on the forum since about March and have learned a lot. In the time I've bought a lot of tools and messed up my share of balances. One of these days I'll have a success!
