EdwinekI think a "wowee!" is appropriate here. Fantastic engineering and goed looking as well, though maybe not an every day watch. Of course, the price is even more astronomical than the watch.The Christiaan Van Der Klaauw Grand Planetarium Eccentric Meteorite<a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/watches" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#watches</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/meteorite" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#meteorite</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/watchmaking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#watchmaking</a> <a href="https://www.fratellowatches.com/hands-on-christiaan-van-der-klaauw-grand-planetarium-eccentric-meteorite/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.fratellowatches.com/hands-on-christiaan-van-der-klaauw-grand-planetarium-eccentric-meteorite/</a>

ClemOclockStill in love with this one. My first big work on a watch.

Bruce MacDonaldSince we're highlighting Canadian companies we like, I recommend an outfit I've used in the past to order clock movements and watch bands. Don't know what the future holds vis-à-vis cross-border commerce, but I've always had good service from Perrin.Take a look if you need tools or parts having to do with horology.

Bruce MacDonaldDid you know you could buy a Patek Philippe watch in Bloomington, suburban Minneapolis? I, frankly, did not. The big billboards advertising such just didn't sink in till now.The claim in this column is that the big Swiss watchmakers are reticent to maintain relationships over ownership changes, so the store will go out of business when its owners retire.What will become of the in-house watchmakers? and the Labradors?“You walk in those double doors and, if you’ve never been here before, you can be kind of intimidated,” Hope said. “We might have beautiful, spectacular things, but we’re just regular people loving our dogs.”Not a jewelry person but I found this story interesting. <a href="https://www.startribune.com/ramstad-wixon-jewelers-a-destination-for-luxury-celebrations-and-petting-dogs-is-closing/601228106" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.startribune.com/ramstad-wixon-jewelers-a-destination-for-luxury-celebrations-and-petting-dogs-is-closing/601228106</a><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/business" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#business</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/watchmaking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#watchmaking</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/dogs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dogs</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Minnesota" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Minnesota</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/LocalInterest" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LocalInterest</a>

rodluxWhile we often turn to <a href="https://maly.io/tags/Switzerland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Switzerland</a> when it comes to the craft of making <a href="https://maly.io/tags/watches" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#watches</a>. Increasingly some really oustanding (and affordable) ones can be found in : <a href="https://maly.io/tags/Germany" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Germany</a>, <a href="https://maly.io/tags/Thailand" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Thailand</a> and <a href="https://maly.io/tags/France" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#France</a>.

Josh JohnsonSo <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/watchmaking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#watchmaking</a> has been a great hobby for me that allows for detaching from the computer, but also still use similar skills to development…. I can't count the times I've had to debug something going wrong, test and measure improvements, or just think about the stack of things connecting to each other while working on watches. I just completed my second watch service this weekend and thought I'd share all the ups and down of this watch.<a href="https://jnjosh.com/posts/elgin-watch/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://jnjosh.com/posts/elgin-watch/</a>

Josh JohnsonI'm surprised how much <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Watchmaking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Watchmaking</a> has been probably the closest non-programming thing I've done that gives me the same enjoyment. It seems to actually exercise some of the same skills. Tonight, for example, I had to debug something where the crown stem wouldn't engage which led me to disassemble a lot of my previous work to figure out what thing needed fixed. I might as well set up a JIRA instance for my watchmaking. 🙃

Josh JohnsonThese parts were disgusting before I cleaned them, now nice and shiny. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/watchmaking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#watchmaking</a>

Josh JohnsonWorking at my newly organized <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/watchmaking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#watchmaking</a> workspace. Using my standing desk to raise the tiny parts closer was really helpful!

Josh JohnsonSneak peak at my 3rd <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/watchmaking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#watchmaking</a> project! Yes I have three in progress now 🙃😬🤣

Josh JohnsonOne of my favorite thing about <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/watchmaking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#watchmaking</a> so far is when you order replacement parts they are so small they are just taped in a plastic bage to the receipt.

Josh JohnsonI’ve been working on this watch for a month or so. I disassembled, cleaned and oiled it 3 times. Now it’s working! My first watch restoration! <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/watchmaking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#watchmaking</a>
