Howdy, y'all!

I'm a relative newbie to watch repairing, but learning fast. I have done levels one through three of the TimeZone Watch School and have been consuming Mark's videos voraciously. I have a little collection going... several "nice" watches that I mostly don't touch other than simple regulation if needed, plus a growing number of lower-end pieces that I'm willing to sacrifice to my education.

Watches worked on so far...

  • ETA 2801-2 – disassembly, reassembly (TZ watch school level 1)
  • ETA 2436-2 – full service (TZ watch school level 2)
  • Seiko Recraft SNKN37 – full service and adjustment (dynamic poising)
  • Seiko SRPB41 – adjustment, followed by balance replacement ;)
  • Vostok Amphibia – full service and adjustment, crystal polish

Next up...

  • Poljot Sputnik – full service and adjustment as needed
  • Elgin 1905 18s pocket watch – full service and adjustment as needed

I'm an electrical engineer (analog/RF IC design) by training and have had various hobbies including windsurfing, paragliding, astrophotography, coffee roasting, general aviation, and now watch repairing.
