Hi all,

I am serious. I want to service my first watch and I have plenty of stuff bought. During the next days more will be shipped to me. Today I made my research on oils/ greases. Please have a look at my list and telle me what you think. Is it ok, does something miss etc.?

1) Moebius D5

1. I use moebius 9104 (HP 1300) for D5

2. You can use molykote dx for grease, very cheap

3. You don't have to have 9415 at all early on. It's only used on 1 pallet fork. Use a tiny half drop of 9010 instead.

4. Yes

I wouldn't worry about barrel grease or oil right away. Wait til you get some more skills and tools to work on main springs. Until then just replace them if needed.

9010 for light oil
9104 for heavy oil (D5)
molykote dx for grease

Service away!
