Lucifer... if you have a Harbor Freight store near you, they sell watch opening and closing kits. Check them out! I don't remember how much they cost... but having one of those and using a very very small flat head screwdriver will help open a watch. Most watches now a days don't have cool parts in them tho...

OHHHH you're so lucky! Those parts can get expensive! This hat is a great design. I'm totally 'favoriting' it so I can use it for inspiration. THANK YOU! Happy

Thanks!


It never hurts to ask.

I can't find anyone willing to give up old watches. And pocket watches....forget it. I really want to work on some miniture Steampunk stuff. Maybe I'll break down and buy some parts off Etsy or e-bay.

AGH YOU ARE SO LUCKY! >O
I should ask around at the repair stores near here..
I have a crap load of dead old watches, but the backs are near IMPOSSIBLE to take off..
Maybe I'll go to a few and ask them to open my watches, then smooothly ask if they have any left over gears and crap that are useless to them.. e--e

You should sell some off them to those of us that are so unfortunate to not have such a connection.
