Recommended Posts

New here on the forum and also watch making world, I'm Tosaphon or you can call me Paul to be easy.

I'm 27 and start to interested in watch making and around 5 month, the reason being that I trade vintage Rolex watch for 4 years now, sometime when the watch got problem I want to be able to fix it my self.

I study alot from books and youtube and start to practice on a scrap movement that i can find, now I'm jumping on some classic Rolex like cal.1570,1220,3035 and making some money !

I also attached the picture of my work space too, is getting bigger !

Sawadii khrap khun Tosaphon.

I do the same with humble Seiko, it helps my trading while I enjoy myself but I will have to take a break next month to visit your amazing country. You certainly have a fantastic space to work. Welcome to the forum!

    • The plate is OK, thanks. It seems the answer to my question is that this is a 'hack' & for me another reminder that in general, one won't be the first person to be tinkering with an old timepiece!. As you day, I've been fortunate to have gotten some good advice and, just as important, encouragement. I've been lucky then not to have the balance spring break as a result of my novice 'ministrations' - but I did remember to 'stroke' rather than bend per se. The clock is of sentimental value to the owner so I'm relieved to have now got it running to time with the support & encourage of forum members like yourself.
    • Thanks ww, its maybe not as much of a bodge trick that i thought it was.

    • In think you are effectively shortening the coil by shorting out damaged tracks. In my case as long as the continuity was good and the resistance not too greatly affected it should be ok .  One was on an era  movement,
