Again, just went through the whole tutorial, it’s amazing big thanks for your hard work.
I think I’m gonna crack on my next 5513.

Hey guys. Really sorry about the loss of the pictures, and thanks again for the PDF compilation. I've had a quick look. It seems I was over the word / letter count by a massive margin based on the new forum rules (which I wasn't aware of). In order to preserve the post I will try and upload all the pages of the PDF separately and upload on to the first post again. For the time being please use the PDF version.

Just echoing what's been said before - an amazing step by step guide, to be used by any novice in taking watches apart. I'll definitely make good use of this for my first project. Funny story - found it through a random google search on how to age you watch, and it turn made me want to join the forum. Great stuff indeed.

Due to post size limitations the original guide was unable to show the pictures. Which is a shame of course. Please download the PDF Version to see the full guide.

Just wanting to thank you for this wealth of information. Always wanted to own a vintage Rolex, but with this forum and especially this PDF it's becoming reality. :)
