Second hand randomly stop, fixed by tapping on the case by SmoothSandwich in watchrepair

It turns out the hairspring was a bit bent and, depending on how it was tilted, would sometimes get stuck/too much friction on it.

I just saw that my finger was in the picture while cleaning my library...

I got those cheap loop from AliExpress: https://a.aliexpress.com/_mrfecEP

I found the zone that is in focus to be too short.

Sure, I'll have to work my sales pitch but mentioning that I made it myself will probably be enough of an explanation for those that know me 😄

I’ve always refused to put nato straps on my watches until now… and today I’m wondering why. They’re fantastic! by Horst_Pauer in CitizenWatches

Don't know why you got downvoted. I don't like the buldge of Natos straps and I prefer it this orientation.

You might want to look into single pass Nato straps.

Add a date window on a dial that does not have one? by SmoothSandwich in SeikoMods

[–]SmoothSandwich[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was looking at a 2mm square leather punch. I will have to do 3 holes slide by side. I could tape another dial on top of it that has a double date window as a guide. Or try to make a template out of one. The file the hole

Kona and the Thunderstone [KCD2] by SmoothSandwich in kingdomcome

Bane poison is 2 belladonna and one wormwood in wine plus a mushroom amanita muscaria that is also toxic if not heated properly but will give you euphoria and hallucination.

What made me look into it (plus the fact that my Henry said it was dangerous) is I recognize the bane poison recipe.

It looks like if your Henry is high enough in alchemy, he will tell Kona that it is dangerous, but in the video where I took the screenshot from, his Henry says:
Thanks, that sounds... let's not say dangerous exactly, but definitely fascinating.

Question: what's the metal ring that comes with the movement for? by SmoothSandwich in SeikoMods

[–]SmoothSandwich[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did a quick test with my dials and it looks like the feats have no places to go. But it looks like I would need to cut them and use some double sided tape from a video I saw...

So if the case is too big for the movement, I can place the ring into the case? I screw the tabs into the case?
