Hi
This is my first post in this forum.
This forum is for me "godsend". I have had an interest in watches since early 2013 when I bought an Omega 30T2 from 1945. As the watchmaker where I bought the wristwatch shown me the movement I was quite impressed. The technique, wow that you can produce these small mechanical wonders …
After some time, my interest was now in the Vulcain Cricket, this movement and its histore did that it was the fire that really caught my interest. In the beginning of 2013 I took a week on the Danish watchmaker school to try the watchmaking profession. After these 5 days I was determined that I, despite the age of 50 soon would train as a watchmaker. Unfortunately I could not fine a solution to getting in learning when I founded the home just before the financial crisis and therefore will not withstand the low pay as a learning relationship will bring. However, I have now decided that I must study on my own and in that way get more and more skills. I just signed up for an online course http://learnwatchmaking.com which is quite fine and are gathering tool to get properly started. I found this forum when I googled for Elma Super Elite and SSteel has a very fine tread on such a machine ... .. I am looking to use this forum!

PS: Google translate is often my friend .... hope you will bear with it ...

      Watch of Today

      1947 NOS Ambassador 'C'. Actually, the case came without the movement so the movement isn't NOS, but she sure is pretty.

      one of the problems we have is visible versus invisible. For instance millennium disulfide another high pressure lubricant black in color. I was told by somebody worked for the Boeing company that they had a piston like device somewhere that has eight call it around it to grab it so it has to slide and in the collet has to grab. But if somebody puts that type of dry grease on where grease with that in it it embeds itself basically in the metal and they have to throw the whole part away they get use it all. So I suspect on all the dry powdery lubricants that they will go into all the basically microscopic cracks and crannies of the metaland that's where it is visually at least until you scrub it off your visually going to see it which is good because you want your lubrication the stay word is. But I'm sure it doesn't last forever on the metal it's just a really nice lubrication
