Hello people,

 

My name is Hans, i'm 57 years old. My job is to help incapacitated entrepreneurs to get back on their feet again.

My hobby is being engaged with watches. I'm new here, but not quit new. I'm watching the vidios from Mark for about two years now. I'm interested in watches since my youth. At some moment I started to chande batteries and did other small repairs. Then I wanted tot know more. I purchased some tools and so on. Because I wanted to know what I was doing, I signed op at the only watchmakersschool in Holland, the Zadkine Watchmakersschool. After I've received the message that that course was full, I decided to follow the Timezone Watchschool. course. This is a course mainly on paper with some photographs.  So I became a self-taught.

Than I became an offer from Mark . It was an offer you can't refuse. So I started again with the first and the second course. Because I learned a lot the last few years it wasn't difficult, but I liked following the course a lot.

Now I start with number 3. 

I hope to hear and learn from all of you.

Best wishes,

Hans

    • 🤔 leaving the EU meant that UK was no longer part of the convention and have already been turned down an independent reapplication. I'm pretty sure courts have to be held in Switzerland in this case. There will be a lot more watches stashed away in draws  tbh, folk wont be able to afford to maintain them. Cheap watches will be bought and top end watches by folk with plenty of cash that can pay for service and repair. The expensive once in a lifetime gifts and everything else inbetween will be at the forgotton when they stop working. I know i was being a numpty, get used to it 😄
    • although not in this case.  It was the Lugano Convention and its deficiencies that allowed a Swiss court decision in the first place.  This isnt really a Brexit issue at all.  A decision that affects both the EU and the UK should never have been heard in Switzerland. I bet the authorised service centres in the UK are pretty pleased.  It's a massive shame, though; I believe watch owners should be able to choose to have their watch serviced by whoever they trust.
    • Hi guys I think that old hippy is correct, it opens the gates for china to manufacture aftermarket spare parts. considering that they already do work on behalf of the Swiss I guess this decision gives the a little more legitimacy to tool up and I am sure they will take advantage of the situation either with or without the blessing of the Swiss watch industry  Having read about the protectionist machinations of the Swiss in the history of Europe they were the only ones to get fat at everybody else’s expense. I think the outcome could have been guessed at but ,  fair play to Cousins UK for standing up to them.  Now the question,  will everybody boycott Swiss watches and Swatch, no way they will still fill their coffers.  Me I stick with the Japanese once renowned for cheap shitty watches who came good through industrial effort and don’t for get the Russians that most dismiss as low grade crap. Wouldn’t buy a swatch product ever how about you all.? a
    • Hold the crown when in winding position, move the click away from the crown wheel, and then while holding the crown let it slowly unwind. I recollect that you must remove the automatic device bridge first, but maybe I'm wrong. You can first try without removing the automatic device bridge.
