I am working on a tiny vintage ladies watch and am unable to check its performance on my Weishi No.1000

The timegrapher tries to auto detect beat for a few seconds, it stops, then tries again.

The watch is definitely running consistently the entire time. Is the performance too bad for timegrapher to register the beat? I was also wondering if it's too quiet for the timegrapher's mic but there's no gain setting on mine.

To give it the best chance of detecting the signal - don't have the movement in the case, and put the balance side close to the metal end of the holder. If it is cased, put the crown against the metal, as it transmits sound from the movement.

      No that has never been the intention John, why give up something that ticks all the boxes ? all its about is having a backup plan.

      There is no real alternative to this wonderful site, John is 100% correct in his summation.   Tom

      The problem is there are no good Solutions. What we really need is a backup for Mark. In other words somebody willing to step up and take his job if for some unknown reason he is unable to continue. Not really an inactive site because if you have an inactive site then why don't we just have an active site instead of run by Mark run by a group? Yes this is the problem with this discussion do we want to take this away from Mark and start our own group? As I said there are no good Solutions and unfortunately with the Internet is everything goes away sooner or later including discussion groups they never last forever. The problem would be even if you collected everyone's email address what would you do if the group was gone? As far as websites go they're insanely cheap to make and set up and have especially if all its only purpose is a place to go in an emergency where it would have a emergency email address to reach out or updates could be posted in case of an emergency. Kind of like a civil emergency you're supposed to go someplace this would be our civil emergency website just in case the unthinkable happens. Otherwise somebody sets up an email address for emergencies you can contact us here. Oh I have a question at least for the people in the UK that are so incredibly concerned about reaching out and contacting each other why don't you just form a physical group that gets together from time to time?

      Looks great Michael,  just the combination of a damp cloth and iron perplexed me 😅.  Steam will swell the veneer and soften any adhesive underneath. Its amazing what you can do with a little glue, filler and refinishing, good job matey 👍
