Hello and thank you again, do I have a question ? Yes , I need help /advise on purchasing a good reliable , inexpensive , snap caseback/ bezel opener/ remover , and crystal press , as i by now realize that outside service is costly , and I do some of it myself , only the basic , wouldn’t want to damage any movement that I have no skill to touch it lol , so please , any suggestion , will be appreciated , good day, kazd
You need to send us better pics but if this watch is as you say, it is worth several thousand USD at least. It is most definitely NOT a watch to practice developing your watchmaking skills on.
I have a five year old I phone and I just point and shoot. They almost always come out clear. 😊
Well, if it means anything, I want all of these.
Hello and thank you for this info , appreciated , yes my picture taking is well below standard🙃 need some secret tips of how you guys manage to take your clear crisp pics, will try do better,good day, kazd

Really nice collection.
I am not really good at taking pictures but here are some advice anyway :
- Avoid group pictures to start with and take them one watch at a time.
- just get a good light : a natural one, not too direct. Personnally I take mine close by my window by day without direct sunlight of course;
- Zoom in like 1.5 vs normal 1 as it enables not too have your phone too close to your watch and out of focus
- & Shoot 😀 straight dial pictures are the best to start before trying to take every angles of the case
Regarding how to open a case, again I am no specialist but I took the Bergeon ball as I thought I couldn't do any harm with one but I do struggle from time to time. I watched some tutos on YT and finally was able to open the ones I needed to. The simpler version is to go and ask your watchmaker. Otherwise you have very expensive professional tools/press that can be bought online but this safe solution is costly.
Can't wait to see your collection with good pictures.
Enjoy your weekend

It’s a sought after movement. Multichron 12hr EP 40. Sadly your pics are terrible. Is the dial stained or is it shadow? Looks like the case is rough. Better pics in sunlight might be helpful. There used to be a decent website on vintage Gallet. It seems to have vanished with its aquisition by Breitling.
Definitely better pictures…. Beautiful watch! 😎
great pic, beautiful watch !
Thank you, finally I got a needed complement and encouragement, love you guys👋🤗 and actually I’m wearing it today, i feels really good warm on my wrist , lucky ones that can enjoy such a legendary piece of history, good day ,grateful,kazd
Excellent shot of a beautiful watch. Some good light and a steady hand go a long way.
