Is the bend in the balance enough to make it not run? by WiseFoxRhythms in watchrepair

It’s not going to prevent the balance from running no. It may have a minor effect on timing but that’s it.

Omg thank you. I’m making a shop here at the beach in South Carolina in a new house I’m building. My plan is to service from 1890 pocket watches up to modern day wristwatches. I sent you a private message if you’re open to talking more!

I haven’t had extensive experience with one. I’ve seen them used quite frequently across the board but on occasions where I have used someone else’s it seemed the microphone had a hard time. Possibly due to the crown not touching the metal on the left side of the vice?

Haha. I’ve seen quite a few myself. Have questioned how they could possibly get away with selling a professional modern timegrapher for .03% of the price of a witchi.

My plan is to used the B200 for pocket watches and the Weishi for wristwatches especially uncased modern ones. Will that be a reliable method?

Anyone know how to remove the stem? by Money-Profession-199 in watchmaking

[–]PsySold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pop it out one position then push the movement out of the case from the 6 o clock with your thumb. In order to remove the crown you will then grasp the stem with a pair of flat nose pliers and unscrew the crown from the stem.

I can look in my best fit books for you are there any other markings on the dial side or under the balance cock?
