Dr Fun Socks 76 Posted February 26, 2021 Your meteorite pepsi is one of the best builds ive ever seen. You should start producing those dials on an industrial scale. I spent a long time figuring out which organs I really needed when the last one was up for sale 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brang1 4,011 Posted February 26, 2021 I admire you greatly-amazing work me on the other hand, I would get all the parts out like this pic-then stand up, belt would get caught on the edge and that lot would fly to every corner of the room never to be seen again 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flinnt 2,009 Posted February 26, 2021 I’ve admired your work over on RWI. Ever since a child I’ve wanted to be able to pull a movement to pieces and reassemble it. When I discovered reps I realised this is my chance. Spent what I thought was a lot of money on equipment and proceeded to learn. Learned how to disassemble, clean and reassemble with correct lubrications as I went. Then realised in order to fix broken movements I would need to spend way more money on equipment and gain way more skills. Both out of reach for my budget and my desires. Seeing your skills and your equipment made me drool. But this is not for me in this lifetime. I reached my goal of knowing how to disassemble and reassemble and now I can just live vicariously watching your work as being the real deal as a watchsmith. Thanks for the post. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Psssniper 84 Posted February 26, 2021 There's something about seeing a well organized workspace with proper tools that is inspiring, comforting and simply awesome to behold. I would feel confident, based solely on your pictures, sending you any watch I own for repair or service! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

markismyname 70 Posted February 26, 2021 I started the repair journey then stopped when I started my new job but this post re-invigorated me to start back up this weekend. Thank you What are your thoughts on becoming a member of AWCI? Was it worth it? What cleaning solution do you use? What's been the hardest part of cleaning/reassembling?
