Fantastic watch. Oh, how I pray that one day I will be fortunate enough to come across one that I can afford! I know...there are so many other things that are much more worthy of praying for in this world turned upside-down, but that's all the more reason to have one of these on my wrist.

 

G*d....please....if  you can hear me.....

I know God's listening , as he always does . Especially to someone with the initials "JC" .  

And who knows , maybe He'll listen a little closer when You put your hands together in prayer when there's an Omega on your wrist . 

All kidding aside , the secret to reaching your goals starts with a white hot desire , a plan as to how you are going  to reach that goal , and a time frame to reach it ,....with out losing that hot desire .

Having said that , don't forget to post some pics with your Omega while you work on the next goal .

Gosh Joe I was slow to catch on but yes, your initials! JC! -- Louis, you are a genius! - I'm convinced now your Omega -- just the way you want it - is on the way!

Cheers,

Bob

Hey there JC , Here's an important part of the goal plan I forgot to mention . A picture or description of the item you want .......in detail .

Put that on your bathroom mirror to see when you shave and brush your teeth . Your dresser mirror to see when you comb your hair or put on your lipstick.....yuk yuk . Your locker at work , inside your motorcycle helmet , On the sun-visor of your car,  it's all positive reinforcement .

I'll do that on the inside of my driving glasses lenses! You don't really need to look when driving in Miami unless you want to die of a heart attack! :)

      @oldhippy, hasn't been on since the 14th of April, I messaged him nine days ago, no reply.  I  hope he's on an around the world trip with endless booze and supermodels.   joking apart, I  hope he's alright. Does anyone know anything?

      A lathe with indexing that won't break the bank?

      Some of the older American companies did at least claim to manufacture them so reliably that any one of their tailstocks should perfectly center any one of their headstocks. But it would take probably someone like nickelsilver to verify that in a big enough collection.

      You also have another potential issue with head and tail stocks, in my research it would seem that for the American style lathes the head and tail stocks were bored as a pair. So a matched pair is good a “pair “ made up from two different lathes cause some headaches. The Swiss Geneva style lathes are much lighter but were apparently made to fit any lathe. I have seen mention of being able to shim the tailstock as well to true up. indexing is again not so straightforward for a watchmaker lathe, at least not as I have found so far. Often a lathe will come with basic indexing which is limited to 60 positions. The full index plates do come up at times for eywatering prices. It is very possible to do that electronically. As well as what @SwissSeiko maybe able to point you to have a look here. https://imakewatches.com/projects/CNCIndexDriver.html   https://imakewatches.com/projects/MillingAttachment.html   Tom

      On a watch repair discussion group that you know that we love to see naked watches out of the case you show us a box? I think a book on watchmakers lathes should be helpful.   The watchmakers' lathe, its use and abuse; a story of the lathe in its various forms, past and present, its construction and proper uses by     Goodrich, Ward L https://archive.org/details/watchmakerslathe00good

      Got it. So a WW lathe will have that graduated drive pulley for different speeds and similar setup for the bed and tailstock, but they won't be fully compatible with one another in terms of parts. Thanks! The picture helps a lot.
