Good morning, CoSo. Let's get the week cranked up and start with a coffee. #caffeineclub ☕
🌎: Honolulu, HI.
I don’t think I’ll ever have the real thing, so I built this. It suits just fine. Explorer II Polar White homage. Want one? Link in profile or DM me. #watchmaking
Good morning, CoSo. A visitor courtesy of one of my trail cams. Let’s get a coffee and hang out. #caffeineclub ☕️
🌎: Bremond, TX
Went down to the place today to check the trail cams, and found this. Surprise water well rig. Wasn’t expecting that, but it’s nice to see it there. #homebuilding
1 of 2 - Okay, listen up. I need to explain a few things regarding 'setting your own price' for COSO PRO. Hear me out. Reasons why this is a). impossible and b) a bad idea.
1). I am bound by the constraints of our payment processor & need to set a price for a service/product.
2). "I paid 10 bucks last month, can I only pay zero bucks this month?"
3). "I'll pay 10 bucks but the extra 5 is for this <other person>"
4). Absolute chaos. Some folks can't figure it out when it's this simple.

Finally, some good news with this Waltham pocket watch I’m working on. I sourced a new balance “hole” jewel and installed it. Rec arrow is pointing to it, and you can see the top of the balance staff pivot.
The old jewel was worn and the hole was too big, resulting in too much play and end-shake in the balance wheel.
I’ll add a new cap jewel on top, which will hold a tiny drop of oil to lubricate the pivot.
ICYMI I teased this next watch build a couple of weeks ago. I got the parts in today, so I hope I can get some pictures of the completed watch with the option of one of two different dials.
I may have to wait until I get back from visiting the kids, but again, keep an eye out. #watchmaking
