·As I said in a presvious post I just started my journey in the watch making world, after spent many hours watcing videos of restoring vintage watches just for fun I decided to bit the bullet and start my formation reading a couple of books and looking for information, watches and tools.
Talking about tools let me say before anything else that repair things and give them a second chance motivates me a lot, so tools are a necessity and vintage one that need repairs and are cheap are my thing.
Talking about that I am traiding one of my bicycles for vintage watch making tools, an Elma Super Elite, Boley staking tool set, Froidevaux watch press, Bergeon cristal remover (the kind with claws), three prong case opener and some screw drivers, movement holder, oil containers, oil picks, parts organizer and some watches and movements to work with among other things
The guy I am tradingn with has a lot of stuff and I would like to know what I should looking for to assure the basics to start in the hobbie
Thanks in advance for any help that could help
