Hello! Last week me and my brother found an old pocket watch in the woods while metaldetecting. We have managed to open the back two hinges and cleaned everything there. However, the glass of the pocket watch is still very dirty and we would really like to see the face of the watch. I...

Hello everybody! New to the forum but have been reading threads for a while on here. Anyway I have my grandpas old 10kt gold Benrus and while it may not have any financial value to it, it does have sentimental value to me because I never met him and it's the one thing i have of his that I can...

Hi everyone. I am a noob in the mechanical watch world. I found a vintage watch with a Swiss Avia movement. I wanted to give it some help with some oil. Not doing my research, I used household 3-in-1 oil. This is too thick and it bogged down the balance and escapement. Is there any way to clean...

Hey, I've been lurking the forums for a little while looking for a new watch. I'm looking for something with a really simple clean design on the face. Nothing extraneous like tons of dials or markings. I've only found a few brands that seem to have something like what I'm looking for. Examples...

Yeah, I'm fairly new to watches, if you know what I mean. I own 4, and recently got a PRC200 (hopefully it's genuine) I've always just cleaned my watches with a small amount of glass cleaner and microfibre rags, then a once over with those velvet like cloths you get in glasses cases to remove...

All, I'm after something very thin and need a date window. $200 or less would be great but I'll keep saving for something more expensive. MUST HAVE: Needs at least date, day would be nice too. Must be under 7mm, 5-6mm would be fantastic. Might have to go just over, see Orient pic below...

Hey WUS members, I was considering buying a white G-SHOCK ( GWM5600A-7) and i wanted to know how the color stays over time. This has a matte white finish. I looked up other threads and didn't really find anything useful. Pictures would be helpful. Also, if some dust gets...
