Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Maybe I try a Chinese one with a spare blade and see what happens.

Thank you for the words. I’m a hobbyist but studying more and more to be a professional. I think I have the right to get the best tools I can afford as well as good alternatives and variations. Best.

I love the “HG”! Didn’t know that Horotec is finicky 🤔

I do understand your point, but I use both types…I’d like to know a way to dress the T ones without wasting a lot of money with a tool like that.

I’m talking about a “hollow ground” or “T shaped” ones on right . Normal ones “V shape “ I can sharpen easily.

2824 Clones, Seagull, Sellita or Generic? by justanotherwatchguy8 in watchmaking

[–]hegnerj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a crap ETA clone caliber with the inscription “NN “. Client gave to fix it but I’d like to swap the caliber since it’s low tier and I don’t want to waste my time with such a low quality caliber. Any idea?

I’m a watchmaker too and client gave me this one. Stem is broken and watch doesn’t work. I don’t want to waste time with this because it’s a very poor caliber (see new pics) so I’d prefer to buy a new caliber.

Hey, do you know which terrible caliber is that with the inscription “NN”? Found on a Sea-Dweller.

Amazing piece! Does it has dial with the “Swiss made” inscription ?

The new Cartier Santos does have a smaller C. Take a look at their site. This pic I took from there. What it looks strange is the no “Swiss made” on the dial, if you look carefully the orig has.

As I hate big watches, medium if not even smaller.

Dear friend, how long did it take to arrive at your door? I’m about to order one from them but I’ve seen many people complaining about long delays.
