Don't know if this is the correct chapter but I wonder if someone could do an online course on using a timing machine. As a noob(yes, I still am) and owning a Witschi Watch Expert, I would really appreciate a course or video for this as I am still very much looking for more guidance and knowledge how to use theis and interprete the readings.

thanks clockboy....great info. Just wondered if there would be enough interest for a live session on this...


Level 2 is still being developed and will be available in August. It contains a section on regulating and timing.

I do plan on building a timing machine mini-course which explains how to use a timing machine for fault finding as well as dynamic poising. But yes, the focus is building the main course at the moment.

Thanks Mark, really looking forward to the mini-course....I recently joined a "webinar", a live seminar with 100 participants all over the world, it is awesome to follow a seminar in an interactive way like that.

      Just a note for those who come searching for information on this topic in the future.  I did eventually find the Mark's video on how to replace these springs, as someone observed, he does in fact make the replacement look easy.  (It actually is relatively easy once you have the knack of it.) If you're enrolled in one of Mark's online courses, the demonstration of how to replace this spring is in the Bonus Videos section of his course site, and is called "C2B1 – Sea-Gull Style Shock Springs".

      If the metal was twice as thick, it wouldn't snap so easily.  The thickness is governed by the space available so you can't use thicker metal.  If you glued two pieces together, the likelihood of snapping would be reduced.  That's my theory anyway, could be wrong.

      there are various approaches to learning watch repair. A lot of people want to jump right in and every single watches something to be repaired restored. But other times like this it's disposable it's here for you to learn and when you're through learning you throw it away. yes you definitely should try this you have a learning movement you need to learn and the best way to learn is by doing something.

      Sorry, the friction will be so great that the wheel will barely turn, if the movement will start at all, the amplitude will be verry lo.

      If I can’t re-pivot the wheel, the logical thing to do is to descend the pivot hole.  Plan is to either stick a suitably sized hole jewel (from a barrel bridge or something) or fashion a blob of epoxy on the underside of the escape wheel cock so the wheel sits on its one pivot on the base plate and the staff with the broken off pivot (which I’ll polish as best as I can) becomes the upper pivot. As long as it doesn’t foul the 4th wheel it should work? I know it’s a bodge job, and if this were a rare movement, or belonged to someone else I would not do this. I’m just interested to see if I can get the thing to run.
