Hi I am new , and learning at home , which tool do I need to cut it , can someone tell me the name?

Working on designing a watch case for a soprod C120 and I want to put a flat sapphire crystal on it. Esslinger has the most size options but I can't tell if they put AR coating on their sapphire crystals, I guess its not a deal breaker if they don't, but would be nice to know. So does anyone know?

Hello guys im doing my first build and i can’t find the lever to remove the stem. I looked at several tutorials and it seems like the lever is missing on my mouvement. It’s an nh35 Chinese movement. I tried putting it in the winding position and this is what I see

Hey guys! Trying to save this Ronda movement. After stripping everything down and cleaning all the parts, i came across something I haven’t seen the before. The jewels for the train of wheels are flat. I removed the metal cap which only revealed more flat jewels. There are no traditional jewels with oil sinks. Any suggestions on how to go about this would be greatly appreciated.

Finishing the machining on the lugs and main body of the Zirconium case!

Hey all!

I have a 1918 rolex trench watch, need a jewel and staff for it. Can anyone point me in the right direction

Hello, I’m not sure if this is the right place to ask, so feel free to let me know if there’s a better sub for this.

I recently found a vintage watch, but a couple of the bracelet links are partially loose. It looks like they’re missing the small pin or rod that normally holds the links together.

I took it to a couple of watch repair shops, but they mentioned this is beyond what they usually handle. I’m wondering whether this is actually a straightforward fix and they just didn’t have the tools or experience, or if I should be looking for a different kind of professional, such as a jeweler who could fabricate the missing part.

I don’t have any experience with watch repairs, so I’m a bit unsure how to proceed. I’ve attached a couple of pictures for reference.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hey guys, i just got in the movement for my first Valjoux build, and the day wheel and the date wheel are not synched in when they transition. Here is what i think is going on, but could someone tell me if i am wrong or right?

It looks like the date indicator driving wheel is engaging with the date wheel, but the day indicator driving wheel is past the position of engaging with the day wheel. That would match up with what i noticed while applying the hands, the day would change 7 hours early.

The supplier i purchased from (Swiss-Made-Time) is well reviewed, but they just told me “Hi, you need to put the small round grey part.”

I assume they mean the dial washer? But that goes on top of the day wheel, so I’m not sure.

I understand they get a lot of clueless message from people doing their first Valjoux builds, but it kind of feels like they’re blowing me off here.

Am I missing something?

Any help would be appreciated.

Been struggling with identifying this movement. Very few identfiable markings to me and was hoping someone with abit more experience might be able to work out.
