Watch obsession
You know you've got the watch bug when you realise how much time is spent on Watchcrunch.
Then you realise that you have more than 10 "spare" straps bracelets.
The two watch boxes that show 10 watches are full.
There, are several packets of spring bars in the watch box drawers.
You have a timegrapher, microscope, demagnetiser, and all the tools needed to strip a watch.
You look on Ebay, and lust over tweezers. 🙄
You bought 5 watch movements of the same brand as spares, as they were a bargain. 😱
You decide that you can't live without the specific grade of oil that is made for lubricating pallet fork jewels and escapements.
You don't think it's odd, to buy 0.2millilitres of Moebius oil for £7.
A Jacot lathe seems a good thing to have bought, in case you need to polish a pivot. 🙄
Well, that's what a friend told me anyway......
Slightly eccentric, wicked sense of humour. Self confessed watch cheapskate, who tinkers with watches. Love motorbikes, to date, I've ridden about 250,000 miles, 113,000 of which are on my BMW 1150GS....
Seems pretty normal to me.
Seems pretty normal to me.
The voice of sanity, I thank you. 😊
Let’s no forget the hope of finding a set of Bergeron mainspring winders for a reasonable price.
And you forgot to mention that your wife thinks you have a serious "watch addiction" and she doesn't watch shows with you anymore! 🙄
Wife?! 😂
