I found a very cool website not that long ago that detailed mechanical watch movement disassembly... I thought I had bookmarked it but I guess not. Anyone know of a website that details this with pics??
Cheers
I'd be interested to know how much of that $120 surchage makes it into the hands of the watchsmith doing the servicing (and how much is pure profit), since automatic servicing in north america is about the same price...
I love the description:
"This dial is all 100% original except we believe that it has had luminova added to the hour markers by the very best dial makers that can hardly been detected"
Best dial makers?? The Zigmeister runs circles around the amateur that ruined this dial...

I agree - my EL 177 is fantasic, with the exception of the CG lever which is too skinny and looks a little weird. New crown, lume, and high pin and this'll be almost perfect!
