Introduction

At the beginning of 2011, I took up watchmaking/repairing as a hobby not only to make some money towards my very first watch, but to better understand the inner workings of these mechanical wonders. Taking up watchmaking was truly when my passion for watches began. I've come to appreciate the incredible finishes of haute horlogerie along with the numerous complications that the world of horology has to offer because I began to realize the sheer amount of time that goes into each and every hand-made timepiece.

I decided to create this blog to share my passion with my fellow horology enthusiasts and to document the projects that I will undertake on the path to my very first watch.

Thanks for taking a visit and I hope you enjoy what I've done!

It's Summer Time!

High school is finally over and college is only a couple months away. My time has freed up quite a bit, so I'll be posting more frequently. This is a short post to give a sneak peek of what I'll be writing about.

I only have so much capital to work with when buying watches, and having made the two most expensive purchases a couple days ago, I'm stuck with the two watches until I can resell them. In addition to those repairs, however, I'll be writing about other watchmaking-related topics.

Here's a brief list of what's to come:

-My "workbench" and tools
-My small library of watch books and catalogs
-My ledger
-Vulliamy Repeater a Toc (Dumb Repeater) Movement
-Tarts London Pocket Watch in a Repousse Case

As you can see, I stepped up the ante with the watches I acquired. Can't wait to show you guys!
