My other hobby. I'm currently servicing a 1930's German mantel clock. Three train clock movements are always a bit more of a pain to reassemble. I keep all the parts on a "wheel board" that I made to keep things organized. On a two train American clock I usually don't bother, as it's much easier to keep track.

Oh look, another self-proclaimed horologist waxing poetic about the superiority of "dumb" watches. 🤔 Because evidently, wearing a glorified bracelet that only tells time makes you a sophisticated Luddite. 😂 Meanwhile, your phone is crying in the corner, wondering why it has to be compared to a Swiss Army knife in this ridiculous metaphor. 🕰️📱

Have you ever seen a watch shaped like a crucifix?
This extraordinary piece, circa 1630 and signed J. Gaspard Duval, is a rare French pendant #watch in a rock crystal case.
Fun fact: You can tell genuine rock crystal from glass by touch, crystal stays colder longer.

What goes into making luxury watches in Switzerland, where timepieces can sell for millions ⌚ 🇨🇭 🔍

Luxury Swiss watches made by Richard Mille, Patek Philippe, MB&F, Jaeger-LeCoultre and Philippe Dufour are pricier than some homes. Craftspeople carefully design and construct the timepieces.

Probably gonna get into watch making. Is there a horology crowd on the Fediverse?

No idea where to start so I'll probably try DIY Watch kit to get going! An on-ramp with little friction and some tools that'll last if I stick with it feels right

Perhaps the most comprehensive, modern horological texts are those by George Daniels, the Master himself:

Confessions of a Watch Geek ⌚

My year of getting deep into perlage, three-quarter plates, and micro-rotors.

One month ago I picked up a second wristwatch (anticipating summer sweat and knocks): A digital Casio discounted to $17 at Walmart. This turns out to be the most freakishly accurate watch I've ever owned—running a good 2 orders of magnitude better than the claimed "±30 seconds per month." I recall some watch discussion here and I may be a new Casio fan. https://www.time.gov
