I appreciate watchmakers who will go so far as to even polish and restore the case and bracelet. I've noticed that many just service the inside and not the outside. I think both matter. Maybe the owner of a watch doesn't care, but I think it's just as important as the movement. Thank you!!!

I have a similar vintage Omega with 7 bead bracelet, a bit earlier - around 1964 or 1965 I think, I bought it new. It has Geneve on the dial and a Seamaster back but has no date complication. I stopped wearing it about 25 years ago after it had been all around the World with me several times. In my ignorance I even took it scuba diving a few times in Fiji to depths of 100ft with no problem. I'm going to get the back taken off to have a look at it, it has only been serviced once, way back, when I can't remember - maybe around 1985? Lovely watches, and as usual you treat today's example with the skill and reverence it deserves. Subscribed.

Wonderful job! I noticed that you had the lift angle at 52 degrees for this 565 movement. How much does the lift angle matter when using a timegrapher?

@MagicWatchmaking

2 жыл бұрын

Thank you for the support, what a great question! The correct angle for this movement is 49 degrees. One degree lift angle increases the amplitude reading by 5 degrees. In my humble opinion it does not matter very much.

@Archer335

2 жыл бұрын

Magic Watchmaking, Actually, I was aware of the proper lift angle being 49 degrees; however, I wanted to be as polite and respectful as possible in asking the question. After all, you are the watchmaker, not I. Anyway, someone at a watchmaker’s shop recently put my 565 movement (1968 166010) on a timegrapher and left it at 52 degrees while checking it out. Now I know why. So, if the lift angle is increased by one degree, amplitude increases by 5 degrees. Got it. Thank you for responding!
