I LOVE these posts! Thank you!!
The finishing on these movements always amazes me. Seems like a nice treat for watchmakers that the rest of us rarely get to appreciate. Thanks again. |

I love these posts. Thanks for sharing. I noticed that the dial has various cracks in the material, although very light, what causes that? Just age? Or is it the material of the dial for 2 line subs that is prone to it?

Ashton rule: When you post update to your blog... you post here.
Very instructive and enjoy these types of pictures/technical explanations. Rolex should figure a way to recreate spiderweb effect. Subtly cool! |

It is so fascinating getting to know all the mechanical parts and how they all work together inside a mechanical movement. Thank you for showing us some insight into how a watchmaker goes about servicing a movement. Beautiful macro photos and thanks for walking us through, step-by-step, into how you took it apart, rectified the problem and put it back together again. Fantastic content! Thanks!

I enjoy reading post like this. Seeing the heart of the watch is amazing. So many tiny parts working together to tell time within +/- 2 seconds a day. A true marvel in engineering.
Kudos
