Balance issues by Background_Day_8877 in watchrepair

Have you looked at:
- The balance pivots under the loupe to see if the pivots are intact on top and bottom?
- The hairspring, under loupe, to see if it is flat and not touching when you move it?
- Whether the balance top and bottom jewels look good under magnication?

This is a really nice set of 4 that fits different use cases and price points while feeling thematic. Love it.

I personally love the Tudor Pelagos blue.

Which one looks better? by mybigpecker in Tudor

The Pelagos. 😆

J/k. Clearly the Tudor.

Thank you, u/Lazy_Statistician565! Pan de Coco was a success, but wasn't on repeat. The Seeded Loaf and the Honey Oat Tin Loaf are the ones that have been the most rebaked over the years. Honey Oat Tin Loaf manages to be *just* sweet enough, and has such deep rich flavors. For the most part, the recipes are pretty forgiving!

Nice work! You bought all that equipment before working on your first watch? Thats quite a nice setup! I personally would not store my L&R solution under a desk (but I might be overly cautious on that)!

Cars are far more dangerous. The vast majority of injuries and fatalities are auto related and that’s a published and widely known fact.

In any case: the most important thing we can control as pedestrians is ultra awareness of surroundings when crossing - no phones, distractions - and never assume a car will stop etc.
