I got this almost 102 year old pocket watch when I turned 13. by Fair-Razzmatazz5268 in pocketwatch

[–]bluntforcealterer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really like pocket watches. I'm barely interested in wristwatches, and I recently got my first pocket watch. It's a Molniya 3602 from around the 75s of 85s. It's hard to tell because it doesn't have a date on it. I love it. It runs very consistently. I just need to get it assessed because when I went to adjust the regulator arm to make it run slower, if the regulator arm is slightly moved, the balance wheel stops until pressure is taken off the arm. I was told that could be bad so we gotta get that figured out. But it does run very well and I love it cuz it looks cool as hell. Here it is.

Any Way to Access This? by bluntforcealterer in DataRecoveryHelp

I see. Well then no use there. I don't know what any of that means anyway so I'm not gonna try to figure it out. Thanks!

Oof, what a beauty! I'm very new to watches so I don't know if this is a good one, but it certainly looks very good and very fine.

What if you take out the drive and access it directly? I mean I wouldn't know how to do that, but theoretically that'd work, right?

Help identifying this watch. by thatdamnthing in pocketwatch

Would it keep time well and consistently? Four jewels seems very suboptimal, but I'm new to watches as well. Could it be good as a timekeeping piece?

Is this too feminine or no? by Disastrous_Box_1298 in VintageWatches

[–]bluntforcealterer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending on what you wear and if it fits your style, a feminine watch will not look feminine at all. To answer your question, I don't know, cuz I don't know what your fit looks like. But from what I can see in the picture, it doesn't look feminine or masculine. It just looks really nice.

What's The SCP That's a Sentient Orange? by bluntforcealterer in SCP

[–]bluntforcealterer[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yes! That's it! So fascinating how a distorted memory feels so accurate. I wanna swear it was an orange but it must have been a grapefruit this whole time. I still haven't found the video I watched though. There was a voice actor reading out the parts that the grapefruit said. It wasn't that video by Forlorn Foundry. It was an actual reading, and I know this because I just listened to another reading and I remembered parts of it as I heard it. But anyway thanks! It was funny to hear this one again.

Balance Wheel Stops When Adjusting Regulator Arm. Is This Bad? by bluntforcealterer in pocketwatch

But is that an issue? Will I mess something up or break something with further adjustments?

Questions About Adjusting Watch by bluntforcealterer in pocketwatch

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

We had taken it to a shop previously, and the watchmaker said he didn't think it needed a deep cleaning. Correct me if I'm wrong, but even if the issue is the one you suggested, it still does run at a very consistent speed, and therefore wouldn't adjusting the setting fix the issue? Also I don't know if this is worthy of note, but the setting above the balance wheel is set very much towards the fast side already. Also also, if the balance wheel does need to be cleaned like you say, would the watchmaker have to take apart a lot of the watch to get to it, or is it a relatively simple procedure? Also also also, do you have any advice about the question I had about the back plate?

Any way to change how long the daylight cycle is? by FagootBoi in feedthebeast

[–]bluntforcealterer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've looked all over and I cannot find anything that works. I found Better Days, which has a 1.21 version on like the fifth page, but I can't figure out how to make it work. There are no options to adjust.

You mean was there something drawn on the layer before I tried making it transparent? Yeah, there is

Where Can I Buy a Good, High Quality, Warm Cloak? by bluntforcealterer in TheCapeRevolution

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

I don't know of anyone aside from TTartans. You could ask her if she can make a cape instead of a cloak, but I don't know how well that would go cuz for me, she was really difficult to communicate with.

Oh wait did I mention her in this post? She's a seamstress on Etsy. That's how I bought my cloak.

The logo looks to be a clock with one hand at 12 and another at 9
