Hello I am doing watch hobby for about an year. So far, I accumulated used watchmakers tools and successfully serviced around 10 wristwatches. I did mostly Seikos 6309 and 7009. Now, I would like to learn more and move into advanced Seikos as well. The strategy is to stick to few models so spare parts would be easier to obtain. I am also interested in theory of clocks and watches, can't wait for some books I ordered

Welcome George Daniels book Watchmaking tells you how to make a watch and the theories behind it. Georges book The Practical Watch Escapement is also a great book for the library. Although they are not cheap either of them from what I remember. Any books by Donald De Carle are also worth owning. He done a few on practical watch repairs.
Enjoy!

I am also interested in theory of clocks and watches, can't wait for some books I ordered Aloha From Hawaii, You might consider also this fine book by .... Mr George Daniels. Fascinating to read and learn a few things about just what can be done also. it's on Amazon USA and Amazon U.K. also. ( Might be around ..... $50.00 - $60 USD here in the USA., but don't know about the U.K. prices. Louis / LongBike George Daniels Watchmaking :
