Hello!

Any particular reason why my photos disappeared from my post?

Or am I the only one that can't see them?

 

Bogdan

I've just had a look at your post from the dark side and the line of text for the photos is there. Below, and out with the text box there are no photo files where there should be. I suggest you try loading them again, and/or do as Stephan says and check out where they should be stored.

I have been greatly enjoying this thread, and I would like to thank Stefan and everyone who cotributed by posting their projects and comments. On page seven of this thread Mark posted some photos of the inside of his microphone, and on that same page someone else posted a link to a piezo sensor similar to the one in Marks' microphone. I followed the link and ordered the sensor, installed it inside an old watch microphone I had and the results are better than I could have hoped.

Seriously considering ditching my timegrapher, and making my own now, means I will be able to put to use an old windows mini laptop to use again after being retired when we got Apple products.  I can see me wanting to build a custom display mounting somewhere on my workbench next.

 

Thanks for this thread, and all the info within, great resource.

Please respond quickly, I'm excited to see good results. I think the vibration sensor placed inside the microphone stand is much more sensitive than the origial microphone or a piezo electric disk. It also strikes me that can make comparisons with professional Wischi cronocomparador. I would like to have one but do not.

 

I would ask a favor. I made a post suggesting that could cablibrar the Watch-O-Scope through a sound file in wav format. I would like to check whether this is possible. since you have a pattern on which to make the measurement.

 

 The procedure is on page 11 of this same post. Also there is the audio file. By my calculations this file is a clock with zero in the rate. the difference to be executed on any computer precision error would be the sound card.

 

It is under the theme: "Calibrating Your Sound Card Clock

To use Watch-O-Scope software. "

 

If you have the kindness to do that test I would be very useful to know the results.

 

Thank you.

 

Regards.

 

Guido.

Ok, when I get back to my computer I will try. My calibration was done using the method suggested in the Watch-O-Scope manual. First I measured the rate of an analog Quartz watch I had using a Witschi twin analyzer. Then, I placed the watch in my microphone and rand a 600 second test, with the beat rate set to 3600. Then the difference in the two reading were entered into the rate correction field of Watch-O-Scope. It turns out that the sound card in my old thinkpad laptop required a correction of -2.37 second.

    • in general this shouldn't be any change. but in general questions like this it be nice to know the specifics of the watch in other words how was it performing before it was cased up and what is it doing now.
    • just as a reminder this watch is a Swatch group product. This will bring up a problem like spare parts and technical information. that I found some links to some information on when I talk about your watch and some of the technical and basically your watch is equivalent to 2834-2 for which I'm attaching the technical sheets. But equivalent does not mean exactly the same you want to do a search on the group for C07 as we discussed this watch before including the technical differences how it's supposed to be regulated and basically because it's watch group there is no parts availability. https://calibercorner.com/eta-caliber-c07-xxx/   https://www.chrono24.com/magazine/eta-movements-from-the-2824-2-to-the-powermatic-80-p_80840/ https://www.watchuseek.com/threads/h-10-movement-details.4636991/ eta CT_2834-2_FDE_481857_15.pdf
    • people be honest.... Swatch is evil for the watchmakers and repairers, BUT not everything in watches from Switzerland is from the Swatch-Group. As far as i know, Selitta got sacked by Swatch as a Movement-Assembler for them and they started to produce Movements in their own Name with slight Modifications. As far as i know, they sell Parts to the Market for their Movements. In most cases, if a ETA-Movement fails, it is a valid Option to replace it with a Selitta Movement, which i consider the Solution for this Mess with the Swatch-Group...... I have no Connection to anybody at Selitta, but being a Swiss-Guy, i still like to have Swiss-Made Watches, but not from the Swatch-Group.   ok ? regards, Ernst
    • Just one more greedy act by Swatch. They started a number of years ago here in the US..cutting off supplies to watchmakers that could build complications that many Swatch houses couldn't even touch. Old school masters who had gone through some of the most prestigious houses in the world. Otto Frei has some statements on their page about it. I tell all my customers to avoid new Swiss watches like the plague,..unless they just want an older one in their collection that still has some parts out on the market, or they have really deep pockets and don't mind waiting months and paying through the nose to get it back. Plenty of others to choose from..IE Seiko,..or other non-swiss brands Even a number of Chinese brands are catching up with the Swiss,..and I think that in time, their actions will be their downfall
    • Yes. If that's not what you are experiencing...start looking for something rubbing. A 1st guess is that one of the hands is rubbing against the hole in the center of the dial. Especially if you now have lower amplitude in face up/ face down positions.
