That is mindblowing. It's amazing what passes thru your bench.
You should know, remember the Omega we stopped at the gate of eternal silence?

I was never really away, only from watches - it's been a least a month now, but I have been keeping an eye on things here all the time and seeing spammers out.
I am better, not completely well, it takes time to come back after a type A streptoccal infection - bloodpoison. It was really bad when it started, people loose their fingers, hands, toes, feet, face parts, arms and legs - or die. I don't die from things like this, that would be ironic when I look back on my life.

This hairspring is one resilient mofo, the goo has not given up to acetone, cleaning solution and other chemicals I have here, the god damn thing is completely covered with grease/oil and lint....everything is clinging together like a post it note....

One more proper bath and everything is gone, running like any Unitas/ETA 649X now.
