In-Depth: Introducing The Jaeger-LeCoultre Geophysic 1958 (Live Photos, Full Specs, Official Pricing
I get a lot of joy out of writing about new releases, but only those that I think are really well done. Frankly, it’s not often I can say that a brand new watch is offering you ( / me / us) a whole lot, but today, with this new Jaeger-LeCoultre, I can it say it and mean it. You’re looking at the new JLC Geophysic 1958 family. This 38.5mm watch will be available in stainless steel, rose gold, and platinum (all in limited numbers), features a heaping dose of vintage inspiration, and offers a lot of technology we want in a cutting edge piece of modern horology. Allow me to go into great detail on this one, because I think it’s worth it. The History of the (Original) JLC Geophysic 2 OF 42 Originally created back in 1958, the Geophysic celebrated two distinct events. The first was the 125th anniversary of the manufacture Jaeger-LeCoultre and the second was the world’s first "International Geophysical Year." This was an effort put forth

Need help with an Elgin model 430.
I acquired a ladies Elgin a while back in a group of watches. I wasn't much interested in it until I happened to look up the movement # and found it was produced in my father's birthyear. Anyone interested in playing wrist watch serial # liar's poker?My father passed three years ago so I thought my step mother might like the watch as a memento. I cleaned everything up. The movement had a broken balance staff so I transplanted a donor. My problem is the donor balance had a tweaked hairspring. So far I have had terrible luck trying to reform an overcoil or flatten a stretched hairspring and this one is no exception. Can anyone point me to a source for a new one? I would also like to replace the mainspring. Mainspring specifications are still like a foreign language to me. What are the magic numbers and end types for an Elgin 430? Would you recommended installing a + strength spring and is such a thing available?Thanks, Joel

AP "Equation of time" dial change: Royal Oak/Juels Audemars
Hey Guys,Im about to purchase my very first AP. I have gone throw the model lineup and discovered that the model i want does not quite exist. I would like to have the Royal Oak Equation of Time (.audemarspiguet/en/wat...uation-of-time) but with the skeleton dial from the Juels Audemars collection (.audemarspiguet/en/wat...T.OO.D002CR.01). The calibre 2120/2808 is the same on both models. I have not yet approached AP with my idea. What do you guys think, is it technically feasible and what the reaction from AP would be? will they even allow it even if its possible?I also made some photoshopping of how the watch will look. I havent decided yet whether whether i want it in steel or gold so i made both versions. I also changed the brown strap to black one on the gold version. Do you know if there is a rubber strap available for this model?

Stop too quickly?
hey guysi noticed that my 15400 tend to stop pretty quickly comparing to the winding i gave it. I counted around 30 rounds and it only last about 1 1/2 days. i don't know if i did it wrong, but shouldn't right, just unwind it till it pops and wind it clockwise. it happens 2 days in a row. but i remember when i first bought it the salesman winded it and that winding was good for 3 days.do you guys have the same problem and any comment on this issue?
