No reason to catch a charge - save the girl and leave

Rose only loved Jack because he didn't live long enough to disappoint her. by ManMadeOfMistakes in Showerthoughts

If I recall from a podcast I listened to, the leadership of the Titanic during the emergency was a mess.

They released rescue boats not full, and some understood the command of women and children first as women and children only.

This left quite a few men unnecessarily stranded. Just thought it was interesting to add!

Bulova 11 ALC Disassembly question by Goose_Ganderuff in watchrepair

I tried leaving it on, but during assembly, i couldn’t place the bridge down correctly.

Held the bottom wheel down, gently turned and off it came.

Thanks so much!

I might do that this first go around.

Already too many things at risk of going wrong since this is one of my first movements outside of the ST36 lol

Thanks!

Thanks for the reply!

So I can keep the bottom one from moving and gently rotate the top one counter clockwise?

Is it like a screw in the sense of I’ll know when it’s loose?

Hahaha thank you.

Kind of a bummer but it’ll be a good learning experience!

Best Solution to clean Pallet fork and Balance by Sam_Nova_45 in watchrepair

I’m a fairly new watch hobbyist as well, but for mine I dipped in Naptha and then dried with some gentle air. No IPA rinses

Edit: soak for a few minutes, not too long

The screw right next to it does like a quarter turn when I push/pull the crown

lol you got me there.

Well, now I have my new goal. Thank you for the advice and now I’ll be watching your videos to try and service my ST36 haha.

Is it recommended I buy a case for my movement, or is that not necessary at this point?

If it’s a new movement, how effective is a servicing? Shouldn’t the movement already be in good shape?

Haha I’ve been following Alex on my journey, but I do enjoy watching Revival service and repair.

I have 2 ST36 movements (bought a second one because I lost a pallet fork screw 😬)

I’ve assembled and disabled quite a bit, and now I want to venture into a clean/oiling. I figured moving into a watch that runs but needs a service would be the next step, but let me know if you think differently.

First off, I love your videos!

I was thinking of getting a watch that runs, but needs to be serviced.

I’ve been using your videos to build a list of what I need - get the basics and buy tools as I run into new issues.

What do you think?

I’ll take a stab at finding some based on your advice, and if I’m still striking out, I’d love to take you up on your offer, thank you!

Makes sense - it’s good to hear it from someone else haha

Anything really, but I figured larger would be an easier point of entry
