I just got this in my feed today and found it interesting though the chances of me buying either are remote. He also does some good examples using either for various tasks that those folks just embarking on jewelling tasks might find useful.

Tom.

I purchased one of the Chinese units from AliExpress for £60 +VAT. Saved for 7 weeks.

It was as a result of this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yXNVIAtMouc

Does the same job for me as the Horia.

The video you show does indeed give some good information. Would love to get a copy of the manual.

 

Update

Found this on ebay. Any member any knowledge? Is this a manual of the jeweller tool or just information about tools?

Ross, I am lucky enough to have got a really old Seitz tool but also looking at the horia clone. I think I would prefer having both though I would see reasons for both. My old Seitz set does need some work but what doesn’t whether you buy bergeon or other from what I see. There will always be a thing of having to fettle stuff, Swiss maybe less than Chinese, then again my time is “free”

      Without Our Forum

      By Neverenoughwatches · Posted

      Ok so there is barely any response happening . After this last attempt i think I'm just going to give up on it because very few seem genuinely interested or even bothered or worried what may happen in the future. ( if someone can set me straight I'd love to hear it ) I would think anyone into watches has heard of Roland Ranfft, how they grew to love and depend upon his site for detailed information. And not just that, he also had a view about Ebay and everyone that visited Roland's site knew exactly what he thought about Ebay, Roland's site also had a secondhand watch sale side to it.  If anyone here could have done anything to preserve his site and keep it exactly the way it was.........Would you have done something to make that happen ?  Its been pointed out to me but not in so many words  that I'm probably coming across as an insensitive p.rick, truly I'm sorry about that, i say it as it is but no malice is intended and yes clearly I'm putting my forum membership on the line here. I'll happily shut up about it now, I've done all i can.

      A see-through vintage Swatch! Service walkthrough of a ETA 2842 with Video

      Thank you so much for posting this!  Although this movement is serviceable, there are no service notes that I've been able to find.  This is a great alternative!

      Learning Watch repair maintenance

      Greetings from another electronics designer & programmer!   I suggest you get a batch of similar scrap movements from ebay - I found batches of Seikos very cheaply, I got seven of one type for £11 (or 11 Euros possibly?). Those were ladies, 4206B I believe. There are also mens movements at a slightly higher price; eg. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/134723051997 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/235565276549 They are cheap enough so it does not matter what gets messed up or lost & you can probably still get one or two working movements from a batch, even if some part are damaged when you get them. (I've had quite a bit from the guy in Holland, he usually has a good range of movements).

      Favourite timepiece.

      Please OH, we should all be proud of our collections what ever they are. If we can't show them off here then we can't show them anywhere. Our favourite gives us a story to tell of why we love it, that story also tells others something about ourselves. These are some of the things that make our forum and our community so amazing .

      First movement = First broken movement

      I can take pictures when I am home of what it looks like.  They will be phone picture as I don't have a camera in my microscope yet but I should be able to take a few views to give a good idea of the damage.
