Hello From A New Member


Recommended Posts

My name is Stefan, and I'm an amateur watchmaker.

 

I've been hanging out primarily on Watchuseek, but stumbled across this forum while searching for info on Poljot 3133 movements, as I currently own three 3133-based watches, one of which needs a full service.

 

So far, I've done one complete COA (on a Poljot 2612.1 alarm movement), a couple of watch mods (homages to the Omega X-33 and Tudor Black Bay), and a bit of strap making.

 

I have my own web site, where I document this and my (too) many other hobbies. My watch-related articles can be found at: http://stefanv.com/watches.

Hi and welcome Stefan, Mark has done a great job setting up this forum, I'm sure you'll like it here.

Cracking website that you've set up, I've just had a quick look just now, I'll have a good look later tonight.

Hello Stefan and welcome to the forums,  there is a huge range of talent here and there should be someone to answer any questions you might have.

 

I have looked at your website and really do not know how you manage to fit everything in.

    • Oh well, if Master @nickelsilver says it's the way to go, then it is the way to go! I stand corrected! 🫡 Are there any other places where you're supposed to remove the epilame from the contact point of rubbing? I don't think so! Thanks for the effort @Neverenoughwatches, much appreciated! 🙂👍
    • If you're seeking advice for your "Harvard GSD" MArch II application essays, I'd recommend taking a thoughtful approach. Reflect deeply on your experiences, passions, and goals, and tailor your essays to showcase your unique perspective and potential contributions to the program. As for resources, I recently stumbled upon a gret platform for essays, and I must say, it's been quite helpful. Their selection of pre-written essays covers a wide range of topics, and their professional writers can also assist with custom essays tailored to your specific needs. Check out their offerings here: https://essaypro.com/essays-for-sale. Remember, authenticity is key in your application essays. Good luck!
    • For clarity and ease of testing, I redid that diagram, flipping the circuit to match the layout of the physical watch.
    • Hello, Thanks for the reply. The old jewel will get pushed out from the "outside" which is the dial side. The new jewel will get pressed in from the inside (shown below) which is the movement side, correct?     And the old jewel and spring will get pushed from the is the "outside" which is the dial side. Thank you very much for the information. I will take out the KIF spring and save it. Will update when the new jewel is in place!   Regards, Joe
    • It's a little circlip style retaining clip to keep the pinion from riding up out of position.
