Is your order placed Will?

What an amazing piece of kit, the only thing that would make it better in my eyes would be to have it in a plain case. :-)

Roger Smith's watches are absolutely beautiful - as were George Daniels' - all out of my price range unless I sell my house!

Wowers!!

 

That thing is a pocket watch for your wrist!

I admire the micro-engineering and the amazing finish of the piece, but it's not my cup of tea.

For the same money I'd by a Daniel's watch instead, that to me is watchmaking in it's purest and most elegant.

 

PS. From what I've read it's a 7-10yrs wait on new RW Smith.

I just ordered 2 but had to cancel...they were not expensive enough and the built in toilet didn't work well! I figure I'd look at the Daniels better! :)

 

Lawson, we can order a Daniels between the both of us and take turns wearing it! How about that!!! :)

 

 

On a more serious note, I believe they are trying to find a design that is trendy and at the same time successful...something like the Oyster from Rolex that has such a large acceptance and other manufacturers tend to "homage"....

I want the video of the service of this watch !!!

Now that would be something to watch. I wonder if they would lend Mark one for assessment!

      Managed to clear the short, cleaned and oiled the movement. Now testing for 24 hours before I case it up. The movement is so small that it's loose in my smallest movement holder.

      Message board problem

      By Mark · Posted

      Looks like the kind of message that occurs when there are routing issues between your local network and the remote server the site is living on - there can sometimes be 20 or 30 hops and when there are issues some of those hops become unavailable temporarily for some people but for others where there is a different path being used the issues are not manifest. Another explanation, and this used to happen to me a lot with my ISP, is using the ISP DNS servers on your device or router sometimes is not as robust as changing to a public service such as 1.1.1.1 or similar. I was having a terrible time watching Youtube a while back - changed the DNS on my Apple TV to use 1.1.1.1 and problem solved. However, these issues tend to resolve themselves fairly quickly.

      As mentioned by the other members, it’s a dismantle job clean and inspect the solder joints. It’s an older generation using the paxolin pcb  not the glass fiber ones.
