a message from the
president
W
ishing everyone Season’s Greetings from the
Board of Directors and the staff of AWCI.
We have had a good year and many things have
been accomplished, but there is still much work to
be finished. Here are some of the highlights from
the past year.
ÄÄAt the midyear meeting we set some goals for
the education committee and other committees. A new mission statement was adopted,
which states: “Setting service standards and
educating the horological community.”
ÄÄWe had monthly Board of Directors’
meetings to keep everything moving along. Our attempt to keep the
meetings to one-and-a-half hours
was successful for the most part.
ÄÄThe spare parts directory has been up
and running for a while. Everyone can
see who will sell parts to the independent watchmaker, who is restrictive,
and who is very restrictive. This information is for the consumer as well as
the watchmaker.
ÄÄWe had one clockmaking class in
Harrison. While we would have liked
to have had better attendance, we
have plans for more clockmaking
education in the upcoming year.
Fred T. White
[email protected]
ÄÄOur watchmaking classes have been
very successful. Instructor Tom Schomaker
rejoined our staff earlier this year, and in
addition to teaching in Harrison, he has
taught some classes on the road and three
at the annual convention.
4
FRED T. WHITE, CMW21
ÄÄOur convention in Kansas City, Missouri, was absolutely the best. Good
classes for watchmakers and clockmakers were taught by a number of
outstanding instructors. A very positive attitude prevailed throughout
the entire convention. Everybody
had a good time and came away
looking forward to our next convention in Chicago.
ÄÄWe established a new Affiliate Chapter, the
LWT Alumni Association.
Ä
ÄWe
have plans to reach out to the retail community with battery-changing classes and to
work toward doing more in the way of clock
instruction. There is some interest in a new
CMW certification. We’d also like to see more
cooperation between watchmaking and
clockmaking governing bodies.
ÄÄWe tried the webinar conference call for the
first time in April with some success. This allows our members to sit in on a board meeting and keeps everything open to those who
want to be informed. We did another in November and plan to continue with the program in the future. Call the office to see how
you can join in.
I am looking forward to another great year
in AWCI. Wishing each and every one a
very Happy Holiday Season with health,
happiness, and prosperity. December 2015

Thank you for this observation.

that the oil actually only covers

the convention, we’re sure this
special scrapbook will bring back
good memories and make you

Hobo Nickel Watch
Hi Donna,
I want to compliment Alan
Chernomashentsev on his “Hobo
Nickel Watch” article—a fun,
creative, skillful, and satisfying
project. It brought the following
memory back to me. I want to
share with you a “quarter” dial
that I made and fitted with a
quartz movement into a 10 1/2
ligne case. I attended an AWCI
clock course many years ago
and, as luck would have it, the
NAWCC had their regional mart
at a nearby hotel. I picked up a
six-jaw 8mm bezel chuck/collet
and a slide rest. I could not wait
to see what I could do with my
bezel chuck. Since I had a lathe
and gravers with me for the class
and a few quarters, I decided to
take the lathe to my room and
experiment. I mounted a quarter
in the six-jaw bezel chuck and
turned away the surface, using
the slide rest, to about half the
quarter’s thickness. Needless to
say, I was pleased. After a very
informative and enjoyable class I
returned home. The “half” quarter
languished on my work bench for
a while until I noticed this case

Column: From the Workshop
When I attended watch repair classes, I was most impressed by the Watchmaster G47 timing machine we had
available. I could not wait to get a watch ticking and put
it on the machine to check the rate and beat error. I even
studied the Lewis and Lee book2 that explained how to interpret the line patterns made by the machine on the graph
paper. The only problem I encountered was that I was not
able to diagnose the problems by studying those lines.
Finally, I asked the teacher, a Mr. Kolb, for his assistance
and he gave me some of the best watch repair advice I ever
received. In his heavily German-accented English, Mr. Kolb
said, “You fix the watch; the machine doesn’t fix watches.”
My book still is not written, but from time to time I will
use this column to share diagnostic skills for watchmakers
I have collected over the years. Today we have excellent
diagnostic equipment available to us from Witschi and
Greiner to help us solve watch repair problems. Such
equipment was available only to major factories a few
decades ago and is now within the reach of almost every
watchmaker. Regardless of the equipment on our benches,
the machines still do not repair the watches. Watchmakers
still need to diagnose the problem, confirm the diagnosis
if possible with test equipment, and then make the repair.
Sometimes we can solve a problem with a full watch movement scan by taking the entire watch apart, but very often
that wastes time and still may not remedy the problem
because we did not know where to make the chalk mark.
We need to know where to put the mark.
Making Some Bread
and Cake as Well
In case you have not heard, ETA, as of October 31, 2015,
has discontinued the sale of spare parts from its Customer
Service division as per the announcement below taken directly from their website.
As announced in our letter dated from September,
26th 2014, the Customer Service of ETA SA is
only providing spare parts to watch brands after
January, 1st 2016. We will accept spare part orders
from you up until October, 31st 2015. These parts
will be delivered until December, 31st 2015. Up to
this date the “Spares Tracking” will be available
on our Customer Service Portal. For future spare
parts needs please contact the watch brands
after November, 1st 2015. We would like to thank
you, for our long lasting business relationship.
The last sentence of their announcement seems, at
best, insincere as they unilaterally terminated numerous
long-term relationships with their international partners
who supported their products for many years. This certainly
adds another unwelcome change for both watchmakers
and material distributors. As time goes on, we will acclimate to this change by forging new relationships with the
various brands that have utilized ETA movements in their
watches. More than ever before, we will need to be assured
that spare parts will be available to us, for each repair we
accept, before we begin a repair. It really makes little sense
to get deeply involved in a repair only to find out that some
needed component is not available.
However, all is not doom and gloom. Many independent
watch brands have known for a while that ETA was gradually discontinuing the sale of movements to their competitors. These brands have been taking steps to assure
a supply of movements for their products. Some brands
with sufficient resources have been developing their own
movements, while others are replacing ETA movements
with those from alternative independent movement
manufacturers that include Sellita, Ronda, and ISA. These
movement manufacturers are providing after-sales service
support by expanding their spare-part distribution, utilizing traditional supply channels.
The ETA policy change will certainly have an effect,
as yet unknown, upon how watchmakers will earn their
“daily bread.” We have been handed a lemon and now we
have to deal with it. My hope for the future of watchmakers is they will survive and prosper because of their innate
resourcefulness, skill, and perseverance to make enough
dough for their bread, plus some extra dough to make
lemon cake from the lemons they receive in life.

Technical Discussion: Replacing Chronograph Push Button Gaskets
Replacing Chronograph
Push Button Gaskets
By Dale LaDue, CMW21

intage chronograph watch case
push buttons that are water
resistant should have their
gaskets evaluated and checked for
resiliency, or replaced, when the watch
is serviced. The typical gaskets used
were a type of rubber in an O-ring configuration that sealed against the inner
wall of the case tube and the outer wall
of the button’s threaded post. The push
button represented in this procedure is
composed of a screw, a knurled case
tube, a short-coiled spring, and an inside knurled button cap with a threaded post. The screw has a robust head
that presses on a lever and activates
a chronograph function. The knurled
case tube is threaded tightly into the
case and houses the gasket material
and a metal sleeve that seats the coiled
button return spring. Figure 1 shows an
exterior view of the chronograph tube,
and Figure 2 is a view from the case inside showing the empty gasket recess.
It appeared that the return spring
seat would have easily been removed,
and the gaskets then simply inserted
from the outside, and the seat slipped
back in place. However, the seat was
bound in place. In order not to damage
the internal surfaces of the case tube
trying to extract the seat, I used a
small section of thin binding wire as
shown in Figure 3 to pull the O-ring
gaskets into the recess. The end of the
wire was bent in a U shape to gently
grip a gasket. As shown in Figure 4,
avoid bending the wire farther into
a loop. The wire was inserted from
inside the case, Figure 5, through the
chronograph case tube. A gasket held
in the wire, Figure 6, was drawn into
the gasket seat with attention to the
clearance between the bent wire and
the tube hole as shown in Figures
7 and 8. Once the gasket was fully
inside the tube, the wire disconnected
from the gasket as it was pushed back

The American Watchmaker
The American Watchmaker
circa 1957
From the files of Henry B. Fried
W
hen the watchmaker in America meets
a jeweler who has travelled abroad he is
always sure to ask questions which indicate a great
interest in the makeup of the watch repairer in
other countries. Correspondence from European
countries and meeting with visiting horologists
reveal that there is just as much interest in
the American watchmaker by foreigners. The
continental watchmaker, picturing the great
industrial country of America often wonders just
how this industrialization affects his American
counterpart.
To obtain a true picture of the American watchmaker, one must know a little about the country
itself. One must understand that this great democracy is composed of people who trace their origin to
every country in the world, and that the genius and
skills peculiar to these once foreign peoples have
blended to produce what is America, its thinking,
its inventions, and industry.
To say that today the overwhelming majority of
watchmakers are native and trained in America is
true, but the statement may be shocking to some because it implies that this was not always the case—
which also is true.
The first watchmakers in this country were artisans from Holland and England who came here
to make watches as a trade but found themselves so
busy repairing those brought to this country by settlers that they never got around to actually making
a complete watch. Therefore, watches made in this
country before the eighteenth century might indeed
be rare. On the other hand, the American clock
industry was a very active one, and some handsome

examples of the clockmaker’s art were produced before the revolutionary period.
It is rightly said that watch repairing in this
country was an immigrant industry. Take the case
of the oldest horological society on the American
continent, the Horological Society of New York. It
was founded by German immigrants in 1866 at the
close of the War Between the States. At that time it
was known as the Deutscher Uhrmacher Verein. The meetings were conducted in the German language. It is probably true that this language was that
employed by more watch repairers in this country
at that time than is imagined. Other watchmakers
soon came to the American shores during the great
expansion period; these came from Switzerland,
France, England, Austria, Italy, the Scandinavian
and Baltic countries. Facilities for training watchmakers was virtually nonexistent, and the long apprenticeship system had no appeal to the young, impatient, adventurous American so that only a very
few took up the trade of their fathers.
The advent of the mass-produced American
watch and its ready sale provided ready employment for any watch repairer who arrived with simple tools and ready skills.

First-Ever Swiss Mechanical
Watch Testing in Microgravity
By Aaron Recksiek, CW21

Specially designed microphone rack with 10 individual pickups.
microphones from the incredibly loud aircraft noise as
well as vibrations that could disturb or skew the readings.
The first Swiss-based parabolic flights were launched
on September 21 and 22, 2015. The Dübendorf military
airfield is only the second European location to offer the
microgravity experience. The University of Zurich and
the French company Novespace are working together to
offer the flights. The first day of flights consisted mostly
of scientific experiments, while the second day offered
flights to anyone willing to pay nearly $10,000 for a
90-minute experience. Each flight can accommodate up
to 40 people.
Traditionally used by space agencies to train astronauts,
a parabolic flight is a way of creating near-weightlessness
using fixed-wing, reduced-gravity aircraft specifically
modified to perform repeated parabola, named for the
trajectory the aircraft takes during the flight path. Each
parabola lasts 65 seconds. First the aircraft climbs at a
45-degree angle, creating almost twice the force of gravity
for 20 seconds. The pilot then levels off the aircraft at the
top of the arc of the parabola, creating microgravity and a
feeling of weightlessness for 25 seconds until the aircraft
begins to descend again at a 45-degree angle. During
each 90-minute flight, the pilot performs the maneuver 15
times for a total of around six minutes of space-simulating
conditions.
the first-ever test of its kind, Witschi Electronic
was on board a parabolic flight in September
to measure the timing and amplitude effects
of weightlessness and hyper-gravity on mechanical
watch movements. The invitation was extended by Swiss
Manufacture H. Moser & Cie, which had arranged to take
complete watches and watch movements on one of the
first-ever Swiss parabolic flights. H. Moser & Cie CEO,
Edouard Meylan, participated in the testing with his team,
including members of their sister company Precision
Engineering AG, and a development engineer from Witschi.
The 30 watches and manufacture movements provided
were equipped with in-house oscillator and escapement
components. The testing was done to gather data about
using new materials in escapements and hairsprings,
as well as different hairspring end curves, varying
frequencies, and lubrication. H. Moser & Cie produces
about 1,200 watches per year, while Precision Engineering
AG produces 50,000 escapements and oscillators per
year. The company expects the data compiled during
the testing to improve the development process and
isochronous performance of their timepieces. They also
expect to achieve several new patent applications.
The watches were tested by Witschi using a custombuilt Chronoscope MR featuring 10 individual microphones
mounted on a single rack connected to two laptop
computers. A lot of planning and preparation went into
setting up the instruments. The equipment had to be
secured to the aircraft floor to prevent anything from
shifting around and becoming a safety hazard. They
also built a special soundproofing hood to protect the

As the authors draw closer to the present, they
note that Chelsea is really the only major American
clock manufacturer extant today. If true, this certainly begs the question, why did it survive? Of all
the dozens of American manufacturers—many larger and more famous than Chelsea—how did it alone
remain standing when so many others fell? Was it
higher-quality products, superior management, better marketing, or just sheer dumb luck? This would
be an extremely interesting line to explore further!
The rather hefty price of $128.50 for this 350+
page hardbound book is quite reasonable considering the high quality production, the importance of
the indices (especially for the Chelsea Clock enthusiast), and the credible commitment of the authors.
The Demeters have assembled a huge amount of
information on the history of the Chelsea Clock
Company using original correspondence, inventory
records, and interviews with long-time members of
the staff. Notwithstanding some shortcomings in
the historical narrative, overall, the Chelsea Clock
Company: The First Hundred Years, provides a useful
and well-researched overview of one of America’s
outstanding and long-lived clock companies.
Daniel Benson is a graduate of watchmaking at George Brown College, Toronto, and a first-place graduate
of WOSTEP in Neuchâtel, Switzerland. As well as a career in horology, Daniel has worked extensively in book
publishing and communications
