Hello all.  I guess a little it of an introduction is in order.  My name is Jason and I only very recently became interested in watch repair.  I served in the U.S. Army for 12 years and was recently discharged for medical reasons.  I started working with chain mail as a hobby and found that the intricacy helped me focus and clear my head. From there I started working with custom made jewelry, and now I find I want to expand my knowledge base into watches.  I don't know that I will be able to reach the level of professionalism shown in your many excellent videos Mark, but I hope to be able to get close.  It's great to be here and I can't wait to get to know you all better over the course of time.

 

V/r,

Jason Dillard

      L&R Varimatic Needs Adjustment

      By clockboy · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, enjoy. I have a varimatic that went  out of sequence because it’s hydronic oil ran very low. Must admit it’s still in my garage just know time to fix it. Purchased a cheap Indian Junta/ sonic Pearl as a stop gap a few years ago and it still performs perfectly so no incentive to fix the Varimatic.

      Is this a 'hack' ?

      By dnhb · Posted

      The plate is OK, thanks. It seems the answer to my question is that this is a 'hack' & for me another reminder that in general, one won't be the first person to be tinkering with an old timepiece!. As you day, I've been fortunate to have gotten some good advice and, just as important, encouragement. I've been lucky then not to have the balance spring break as a result of my novice 'ministrations' - but I did remember to 'stroke' rather than bend per se. The clock is of sentimental value to the owner so I'm relieved to have now got it running to time with the support & encourage of forum members like yourself.

      L&R Varimatic Needs Adjustment

      Recently purchased a L&R Varimatic knowing that the piston does not fully rise in the cylinder. The likely cause is air in the system. The manual calls for using a bleeder cup, which is as rare as hen's teeth.Does anyone have any experience with this issue and if so, how did they resolve it?
