I want to try my hand at learning how to service a watch movement. Apparently pocket watches are easier to start on as they’re bigger. Managed to pick up this beautiful 1950s Smiths Empire watch from eBay.

Crazy thing is it only cost a few £ more than a #Casio F-91W. 🤯

@kev I have a 70-year old Omega that I paid to get serviced a couple of years ago. The repairman was able to source original replacement parts.

Not sure he’d have been so successful with an Apple Watch 2
