(Just checked the prices on Cousins for these professional TMs and O.M.G!)ĮDIT: Just came to think of it, the movement was in the movement holder when I recorded the video. The big question though is how we should relate to our cheap Chinese timing machines? If we can’t trust them, or find a reliable way to use them, they aren’t all that useful, are they? I guess slow-motion videos is an option, but I would assume only for slow-beat movements. If you feel like it, you may now congratulate me! So, it appears that I made a good job servicing this beautiful movement after all. The amplitude may not be 300 degrees but not far from it. As evident, at this point the balance has travelled well over 270 degrees from its position dead centre between the banking pins. In the image the balance wheel has just rotated clockwise and has come to a full stop before beginning its anti-clockwise rotation. So, I paused the video at the turning point where the balance wheel stops and took a screen shot of it (image above). Unfortunately, it no longer seems possible to upload iPhone slow-motion videos to YouTube. Today I made a small black mark on the balance wheel rim exactly where the impulse pin is located and recorded a slow-motion video of it.
