I have not had any experience, but it looks very interesting, there are other similar systems available on the market but at 99 euros this seems to be the cheapest. I have used Wildspectra which is very good on my Sony Experia but has to be used in a quite environment because it rely's on the phones microphone. My other half has been asking what I want for Christmas so I may put this on the Santa list but I would want to know if it measures beat error and amplitude first.

Dear Sir,

 

Thank you for your email. We sincerely apologize for our late reply.

 

We confirm that the Analytics measures the accuracy of your timepiece. It measure the "beat error", as you reffered to it, of your watch.

 

Thank you 

 

Best regards

hey! we're twins! this is exactly what i do. you're right - it has to be as silent as a graveyard. what i do is place the watch on my bed with either the covers or a pillow around it to muffle any ambient sound. i'll let the watch settle down on it's own and after a while sneak up on it to see how it's doing. it's a rather time consuming method, but i does work.

i accidently deleted the app recently. i did reload it, but i forgot all of my settings so i haven't set it up yet.

      Epilame / Fixodrop

      By Klassiker · Posted

      I agree with @JohnR725. Oil on an epilamed surface is essentially the same as water on a waxed surface. The same physical properties are at work (surface tension vs. adhesion).

      Without Our Forum

      By Waggy · Posted

      I think we all get a lot out of this group, and it has been pivotal in my development by the sharing of knowledge, experience and learning from more seasoned experts such as @JohnR725 and others (you know who you are!) as well as fellow novices. I think that having a backup communication plan in reserve so that if there is a future problem just makes good sense. I don't think anyone is trying to undermine the forum, but if something unthinkable happens, like the Ranfft website for example, then it would be good if those who are willing can still keep in contact. Speaking personally, and I know I risk a charge of heresy, it would be good if Mark could be a little more visible in this forum, and maybe give any insight from time to time on the future/progress of forum and instructional videos etc. even if its just to confirm the status quo. I appreciate he is a busy man with a full time job, but so are most of the rest of us and to post a few lines every now and then shouldn't be too much to ask to reassure the restless villagers. Best outcome for me would be a message saying something along the lines of: "Hi guys, all good, no planned changes... enjoy the forum, will message again next month!" Just my two cents.

      Omega cal. 565 - low amplitude

      By Endeavor · Posted

      A nice looking watch !! Did you try 9010, instead of the 9415, on the pallet jewels / escape wheel? And if you did, did you notice a difference?

      404 Club

      By Waggy · Posted

      Knocked out another 404 last night...when you are in the zone! This watch was a non-runner which I picked up as part of a lot of 8 watches, so works out to be $3.12 per watch. Before:   And the finished watch, new crown and stem and the crystal was cracked so was replaced. I also replaced the mainspring as the original was the old steel type spiral and very 'set' - all else is original: The Movement was a AS 1686, but in reading around a little the ACCRO watch company were sued for their use of the five point crown on their Jacques Pere range as it resembled Rolex, see below: ACCRO then reverted to just ACCRO on their watches - I have done some sniffing around the internet and haven't seen another example of ACCRO and the crown together on a dial so maybe I have something unusual, or maybe I was looking in the wrong places 🙂.

      Pocket watch escape wh

      By Bonefixer · Posted

      This watch was damaged when I got it. I didn't break the escape wheel pivot, and I bodged a fix with epoxy to see if I could get it running. I'm not yet ready to get into lathe work, or shellacking jewels, and may never be. But I'm learning plenty with each watch I tackle.
