  4. OK guys, I got the watch fixed. Minor surgery at best, but for me a big deal since this was my first watch repair. It took me about 1 min. to put the screw back in once I knew which way it was supposed to turn. It took me longer to get the watch open. It took about 10x longer to get the caseback on correctly... why are some casebacks so hard to do? Anyway, without guys like you in this place, I would have been lost and probably paid a watchsmith some $$ to do such a simple job. Anyway, thanks again Zigmeister, Neuuubeh, and Fransisco. I love this place. w
  5. Ticket purchased! Here we go.
  6. Beautiful work Zigmeister. What size was the watch movement to begin with?
  7. Thank you Zigmeister, Neuuubeh, and Fransisco for your input on this. I'll attack it again tonight and hopefully get it fixed.
  8. Aw man! I had to look up "declension"
  9. After trying to wind the watch, I noticed something was wrong. I got the back off with the sticky ball without too much effort and extracted the screw and spacer/washer? (Not really sure what that's called). Put the parts back in position and soon found out how lame I am at this type of work. I tried to get the screw threaded back in for about 45 min. before I gave up. I suppose if I had better screw drivers and not so clumsy fingers, I might have been able to get it. I know I really know very little about this type of work, but am I missing something else? It felt like the wheel meshed ok with the stem gears and seemed to be able to wind ok (I only turned it very little). Should the screw be installed with the stem pulled out in the time setting position? Well, that's it for now until I get up the nerve to try again
  10. Hey, good tip! How about putting it in the freezer for a few hours?
  11. Thank you TZ. I'll try it. It probably needs a real case opener anyway, but we'll see what happens. w

  13. PAM experts please chime in. I need to open the back of my Fiddy case to reattach a screw and wheel that came loose. The case has a display back. Can I use a sticky ball to open it, or will this break the glass on the display back? I can post a picture later if needed, just can't do it from work. tia, W

  18. Maybe. I'd like to see it on a black faced Datejust or an Air King too. w
