A Balanced Approach

Back_of_Watch_1.jpg

Learn from the Masters is the phrase of the day! I was jawing with my Master Watch Maker thinking I know all there is to know about watches and he brought up the subject of “compensation”, not money watch nerd, I mean balance wheels. Have you ever checked out a old watch movement that had a steel inner rim and a brass outward rim balance to compensate for temperature? I hope you have better things to do, but if you are the greatest of watch geeks, like myself, this is the stuff that makes us tick. I have the link and to save myself time, check it out on the Time Zone article that explains it in great detail, excellent! The watch pictured above (Old School Ball Pocket) is an example of such. Enjoy! CTWG
