In order to protect everybody as much as possible on this site I have now made the whole website run over the https protocol which encrypts any data you send including passwords when you log in of course.

This was a challenge as many people have previously linked to images off the website which are on a non secure website and this may throw up mixed content security warnings in your browser.

To combat this I have set the software to download a local copy of those images where possible so that they can be served with the other content securely as well.

I have run a script to try and automate this given the size of the forum now as it's not practical for me to investigate every post. 

I believe this was a success, however, if you do get security mixed content warnings and you believe it's because of the website then please post a link to that particular page here so I can investigate.

Many thanks in advance.

      What are these Seitz B-Jewels?

      By Jon · Posted

      I picked up a similar amount of these jewels some years ago in a watch and clock fair. Every now and then they come in handy. This week I've got a rubbed in bombe jewel in the balance cock that is cracked and needs replacing. Very handy to have a vintage assortment of these type of jewels!

      Diagram for 6497 motion works

      Great diagram with the teeth and pinion count. Simple way to reduce the speed of the hour wheel by the 12:1 minute wheel. Genius and yet so simple. Always good to reinforce the principal by what you have done in your drawing. Keep doing that. I had a drawing on my wall for years showing me this which is very similar to the drawing you have done. Here's a formula to work out the beats per hour of a watch movement. The movement's BPH is dictated by the wheel teeth and pinion count and the hairspring being vibrated to the correct BPH by finding the pinning up point on the hairspring using a vibrating tool.  The reason in the formula there is X2 on the top line is because there are two pallet stones.

      So I just wanted to say "thank you" again.  The angle is the key bit it seems and yes, it did basically just fall, or float, back into position when I got it lined up just right. I had meant to add that now that I see how it goes in, I totally see how it came out in the first place, and that whomever cloned the original movement didn't pay much attention to the fine details around the setting or how it interfaces with the balance cock or the "rings" on the regulator and/or stud carrier arms.
