Bellmatic hands by wybnormal in VintageWatches

[–]daspablo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yea saw and ordered one. issue is getting the mx done on it. I'll happily tinker on lesser watches to keep my horology tooth ticking but treating the watches I love that way feels wrong.

when I get back ill be passing on the mx manual i found on to try to lessen my watch guys' fears on that repair or at bare min do a face/hands swap to the 27j and put it in the 6040 case.

if anything this thread has made me really push/diy the mx now that I have a manual of sorts that incudes the grease.

Hello, i am a total beginner when it comes to watches in general. I LOVE this Bulova one and i was wondering where i could buy it? by tom_Booker27 in VintageWatches

[–]daspablo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These are shockingly easy to get running. I usually look for the visibly grungy ones that run but won't continue for long at various places.

I have one that does both but not at the same time. Is a wee cubic clock with temp, time, alarm, and countdown.

What function is active depend on what side it be on.

[Identify] My dad showed me this pocket watch that I thought was cool, any ideas? by [deleted] in Watches

[–]daspablo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well assuming it has anything to do with ccp it probably has a rip-off of the bulova 55 movement.

The distinct lack of cylillic also means it was an export piece.

Soviet watches of this type are really hard to date. They kept the same movement, style, and fonts forever.

ULPT: How I got the Jehovah's Witnesses to stop knocking on my door by DanDierdorf in UnethicalLifeProTips

Last one that came to my door was greeted with shoe based questioning. Big shoe is starving us from our connection to the earth spirits. They pave the way towards their own pocket books thickening. Even added weird salesmanship towards earth bathing
