I don't know where the time goes most days, I mean.. its not as if I am busy, I just get sidetracked by this and that.

Today I was finishing off a watch repair for my aunt. Fortunately it was a simple case of realigning the keyless works which had slid of the stem. It will probably go again but it won't be my problem, as I swear I'm never touching another ladies size watch again. They are too small for my feeble eyesight.

3pm and I realized I hadn't taken my WRUW shot yet. I really have to learn to prioritize

I understand completely. It's the same for me a lot of days. Great Timex!

Thanks a lot, James 🤓

Such a classic looking Timex, John. Reminds me of a Timex Seamaster!

You’re a brave man - probably best to never touch another mechanical ring-watch movement again!😄

·

Love that Timex, John. Such a classic.

You're becoming quite the watchmaker, as well. Better watch out, or the whole town will be knocking on your door, wanting you to revive their pretty little pieces from days past.😁

·

So understand your point John..some days just go off the rails! Love the Timex and the beautiful pics you took of it though!

·

Beautiful #timex and paring with that red strap OMG

That ring is COOL! Not that I would wear it but it's such a wonderful craftmanship!

What we know is the Watch Whisperer is a busy man and has many talents 👏🎯. You deserve an extra beer or two tonight! 🍻

You are a real watchsmith, I love it! Beautiful pics. I will retire in 6 or 7 years and am considering tinkering around with these. You are inspiring. Have a wonderful day John!

Love the pictures, John 🤩 and how cool is your aunt’s watch!

Your family have excellent taste ✌️

Cheers, Lawrence.

I got lucky with this one. But please believe I am never going anywhere near anything that small again. It literally took me weeks to fit the pieces back in their rightful place.

But I do have a small project in mind for my Spanish Trip.. watch this space 🤓

Thank you 😊

And believe, me.. the ring is not cool. I have no idea how the pieces can be made so small. I could not see the screws as they lay on my work mat 🤓

Do it, David.. I'm just learning as I go along, and I may not post my mistakes on here, but it is addictive 🤓

Thanks. Trevor. I'm not sure about my family having excellent taste. I think we're more of an acquired taste 🤣

Good lord

Relaxing and rewarding... As long as it goes your way. Best to start on something you don't care about though. And take baby steps

Salient advice. Yes.

Your aunt has good taste. ;) And, your vintage Timex is really cool.
