My Projects


Recommended Posts

If you're interested in my watchmaking projects, I have started a collection on my Google profile. I will start posting everything I do there along with progress pics, before and after shots, etc. I figured I would stop bothering everyone here posting project after project when the majority of you might not even be interested. I plan on servicing thousands over time and typically complete one every few days. Thanks for your time!

I don't see a problem as long as you are not advertising for work. I'm sure the boss will keep you right!

Please bear in mind this It's a watch repair forum and folk like to see work being done by others. I personally would like to see all your projects presented on the forum. It's stiff like your projects that is the life blood of this place.

Can we please follow the rules regarding links to personal blogs being kept in your signature. No links to personal blogs within posts please. :)

It would be more helpful to the community if you post your repair stories in the forum itself, we love seeing how others get on with their jobs. Hope to see more from you in the future :)

Sorry about that, I will re-read the forum rules before posting here again

    • Nice interesting diver Razz, i have a sheffield dress watch, different movement altogether. Could be a wrong motion works part, how does the setting feel before fitting the cannon pinion, clutch and intermediate wheel meshing ok ?  The less traditional setting design could be suspect, the second wheel has a slip clutch assembly, that most likely needs looking at. LA is 42 ° Razz Tbh i  much prefer to call the complete unit the lever, then use the seperate names for all of its components. Such as guard pin, fork, fork horns, fork slot, lever arm, pallets , pallet arms, pallet slot, pallet stones. I suppose pallet fork is the combination of the two opposite ends that make up the lever, its also called the anchor which is descriptive of its appearance.  Its a pretty basic 1930s  swiss lever movement H and yes Nev was meaning the pallet fork.
    • The pallet fork should really be called a lever, English lever, Swiss lever etc but most people including myself call it a pallet fork.
    • Seiko have case numbers, I  can't see it on your photos.  If you can find that we can look for a genuine crown.  If not, you need to measure the diameter of the stem, the distance between the lugs and the depth of the lugs.  The case number will be something like this. 
    • I'm not sure what kind of movement this is, but I'm curious to know if you're using the word "lever" as a synonym for "pallet fork"?
    • Actually kind of rough, maybe munute wheel pinion problems? Is the 2.73mm canion oinion which seems rarer and not availble on Cousins UK. The seconds hand works and suprising nice amplitude but don't know the lift angle and BE this one says 17 j but is a pin pallet as well. Cap jewels on the escape and drive train pivots. Interestingly in has both water proof and shock resistant on the caseback and dial. Puts this around 1969 or '70? The double bezel that works independently is cool has the pi symbol on each. Wonder if it can be used like a slide rule ir something...
