Time may have moved on, but inside Prithviraj Bhola’s Dehradun watch repair shop, it still ticks by hand. At 86, he repairs vintage mechanical watches—some over 300 years old—preserving a dying craft passed down through generations. https://english.mathrubhumi.com/multimedia/videos/prithviraj-bhola-dehradun-master-watchmaker-y4a80w9f?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #PrithvirajBhola #Dehradun #Watchmaker #VintageWatches

Earlier today I had a one handed Cartier Tank homage, because the hour hand fell of the shaft of the moment.

But this evening, I finally mustered up all my courage and decided to try to fix it.

I am really proud of myself right now, because I (yes, me) fixed it.

Jörgensen Jörgensen, “Dog King" of Iceland, brother of famed #watchmaker Urban Jürgensen, died on January 20, 1841 at the age of 60. A few years earlier, fellow convicts memorialized him, carving likenesses of the king and his queen on the Ross Bridge over the Macquarie River.

As his brother Urban became #watchmaker to the Danish royal court, Jörgen Jörgensen spiraled through years of gambling, drinking, and debtors’ prisons, with interludes as a soldier in Spain, a spy for British intelligence, and a failed gambler in Paris.

Qui sont ceux qui assemblent, règlent et réparent le cœur battant de votre KOURA ? Les horlogers ! Armés de loupes, de brucelles et d'une patience infinie, ils manipulent des composants parfois invisibles à l'œil nu.
