I'm not a watch maker however I do love it as a hobby. I've recently been gearing up

I'm not a watch maker however I do love it as a hobby. I've recently been gearing up [No pun intended] for handling a microstella wrench to regulate my 16610.

It's been a lot of fun. Granted, if I do damage the watch I am prepared to pay for any damages done.. though I find it unlikely as I progress. I've even ordered an extra 3135 to practice on.

So far it's mostly just getting a feel for the tools and working on cheaper movements. Really excited about my progress so far. I just started reading a book on the subject to avoid some bad habits!

Looking forward to bugging you guys for info/posting pictures of what I'm up to/answering question to others.

This could be your chance Chris.

Was it only me who noticed that Mr/Ms tweets just copied LordNinjas first post in this thread:

https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=203260

I just thought this thread would be erased since something is fishy.
