Hi there an old newbie just starting out

[billybimp]

Going through some junk I hadn’t seen for years I came across a couple of old watches and thought it would be nice to get them going again, could I do it myself. 

So here I am, reading through various posts, reading books / articles  watching videos and signing up for a course with watchFIX.com online watch repair lessons. 

Looks like a steep learning curve so I will likely be back soon with many questions

Cheers Billy

old watches

the problem with replacing parts in watches are they made a lot of them..Quantities of each whatever but there are lots and lots of variations watches. This means that finding staffs can sometimes be an issue and I don't know what your definition of old watch is but the older the greater the problem of finding the correct staff or any staff at all.
