Having a bit of bother with Incabloc jewel retention springs......... the last three watches I've serviced have been rendered non-runners as when I come to replace the jewel I manage to break the spring....

I    now have to source replacement springs of various sizes..... any ideas where?

Cousins seems the obvious choice. anywhere else?

I see your from my neck of the woods Kent.

I recommend Cousins, deliveries are really quick and prices reasonable. The other source is Ebay if you have time. I have picked up lots of watch & clock spares here.

That's great, I had looked at cousins and saw all the springs, but they only gave the Incabloc part No, not the calibre. What I have now found is the Incabloc site and drilled it down to the parts catalogue. Click on the link below, then on the "Spare Parts Catalogue", (bottom right corner), the main makers are there and pdf docs with all the calibres are shown.

Sorted the ones I need and ordered from Cousins........ Sorted

      The best and almost only way to achieve the magical £ 4.04 individual watch cost is via the loophole ploy of job lot buys Ross. Dividing down the outlay by the number of watches purchased. I've managed it many times in the past, this then gives you the extra edge of choosing any watch from that lot. Maybe we should have an all time winner, whos prepared to troll  through the last four years of posts and pick some worthy contenders. Unfortunately i have a poorly shoulder so i cant raise my right hand and my left shoulder is out in sympathy for my right shoulder. Put your right hand up if you think i talk a load of bull 💩     🖐

      £10.00 is not a huge amount for a watch these days with the increased asking prices. Let’s count ourselves lucky we don’t have this for tools, it would be £404.00 🤪   Tom

      @rossjackson01 it's only getting harder and harder to get 'cheap' watches to work on, I have done some reading and depending on the source the prices of vintage watches is increasing somewhere between 10% and 50% a year. The only way I have found to get watches to lay the 404 game with is to buy a bulk lot say 10 with an average price of < £4.04 but even that is getting harder and harder, hence the re-boot. I see that £6.99 is looking like a popular choice - but I ask the members, is £6.99 realistic, can you actually find watches to work on for £6.99 - maybe its better to cut to the chase and jump to £10.10 for example and allow more people to play? Jut a thought.
