my new project big one


Recommended Posts

I prefer the second option. Crown has to be on the right for me!

"Chunky" lugs are very popular right now, whereas lugless cases remind me of 1970s styling. If that is a bronzed case, then also popular right now. Not sure about the yellow dial - I'm a fan of the Tudor black bay bronze with a brown dial.

If you would like me to do some field reliabilty trials for you, then please let me know :thumbsu:. I wouldn't make any charge for this service...

Is this an auto, manual or quartz movement? What kind of selling price are you thinking of??

Stuart, crown in the right is not a problem, I rotate case and adjust dial on fit, movement ETA 2824/2 automatic, also color of dial i can do all colors.

What about : " If you would like me to do some field reliabilty trials for you, then please let me know . I wouldn't make any charge for this service... " are you watchmaker ?

 

For JDM on the rendering i don't put second hand but in the watch i put it .

Sorry to confuse, no, not a professional watchmaker, was just offereing to wear one for a few months to make sure all is ok in the real world.  My version of a joke, which sometimes doesn't translate well I guess!

    • Here is the insert ring for rectangular or elliptical movements: Note that the length is the side with the stem cut out on the spreadsheet (in the picture below this is 15.15: Here is the fake pdf file, again you need to convert to .zip after download to access the FreeCAD and 3mf files.

    • as you took the mainspring out what did it look like? It's amazing how much amplitude you can get if the mainspring actually has the proper shape. last week I was doing a 12 size Hamilton and was very much surprised with the beautiful back curvature the mainspring had. Then the watch had a really nice amplitude the group would be so proud it was 350 until I dropped the lift angle down to 38 that drop the amplitude quite a bit below 300. then with the beautiful back curve it still had really nice amplitude the next day. I really wish all my mainspring's look like this as the watch had beautiful amplitude the next day. So many of the aftermarket pocketwatch Springs I see now do not have anything resembling a back curve may be a slight curve and that's about all. They still work but they just don't work as nice as a properly made spring. then Omega as all sorts of nifty technical documentation unfortunately every single corner is watermarked with where it came from who downloaded it etc. very paranoid company. On the other hand I will snip out images like from the document on recycling a mainspring barrel. for instance here's the section on what your mainspring should look like. water damaged a lot of times means rust was there rust on this watch?
    • I dont understand why a patreon membership would have limited places ??
    • Welcome to the forum, enjoy. It’s highly unlikely you will be able to purchase a new bezel look on eBay for a pulsar watch for repair to find a bezel.
