I’m not a huge fan of all gold tone bling but as this one belonged to my late father-in-law I’ll make an exception.  |

It's in need of service but running just well enough to make a day trip.

Once again I managed to escape horrible Berlin for a couple of weeks. Once again it's one watch for a couple of weeks. This one will do. Been in the woods today to see how the mushrooms are. They have been waiting form me.  |

 Hah! I was ready for you this morning; decided to bring this one out which I haven't worn in quite a while. First-gen Edifice; EFA-120 in all-original condition. This one was a Thrift-shop score aboot 10 years ago in Houston; took it home for 9 dollah. Aside from a deband/wipe-down/toothbrush scrub with IPA when first acquired to rid it of "previous owner cooties", it is untouched; I tried it on a black NATO band like I have on the Dolphin, but immediately went back to the original CASIO strap. I like the slightly-disreputable feel of it.  mnem touch my coffee and I'll slap you so hard yer momma feels it.Attachments:

New crystal, case bath and a wind....  If the goal is to cover all areas of the screen with dots - this is killing it:  Seriously though I am going to need to find a good watchmaker willing to take on a few of these Citizens that I absolutely love... |

Or just a digital photography artifact that was amusing? mnem It's running poorly, and the acoustic signatures it is producing are confusing the heck out of the time grapher (they operate solely by acoustic detection of mechanical events). I'd guess the hairspring is rubbing something.
These are tough to interpret as the data is really meaningless.

Ahhh.... yes. Like trying to tell whether the howl coming from the frontend of a car is a hub bearing or dying CV joint. You can't really tell until you get it on the lift, pull the wheels and poke around with a stethoscope.  mnem *toddles off to start a roast* |

This is the worst result I have seen on the Timegrapher that didn't crash it completely. This one is begging for a full overhaul.
