Watchmaking Vlog Episode 16
I am in the process of making my first watch, and document the journey in these watchmaking vlogs. In this watchmaking episode I discuss my process of cutting the sliding and winding pinion slot to fit the Swiss made ETA 6498. I also give a brief explanation on how a watch is wound and how the watch can set the time from the crown. By showing the inner watch movement perform these operations.
Things didn't go too smoothly, and the slots didn't look like how I wanted them to turn out, but I'm still learning and the next prototype I will definitely have some very nice looking grooves and slots in the watch.
I'm getting closer every video to completing making the movement for my first watch. I am using a swiss made ETA 6498 as the base movement, and making my own bridges for now. I will hopefully be one day a watchmaker in my own right, making hand made watches.
My watchmakers lathe that I have been using this whole process of building my watch is the Cowells CW90 Watchmakers Lathe.
Cheers,
Dean DK
