Très intéressant, très bon travail d'artiste, les écritures anciennes sont devenues lisibles et jolies en couleur noire, merci d'avoir partagé cet excellent travail
Excellent tip. Thanks for sharing 😊. Toothpicks are generally very good tool for many things. I use it, among other things, for unlocking/locking incabloc springs. Making them a bit more pointy. Works like a charm.
Hi and thanks for watching. Yes, that is why I like this method better than using enamel, you can return the watch to its original condition with a simple cleaning. Then you can keep it as it is or modify the look again with fresh paint in just a few minutes. Great question!!
Yes, the next time you service the watch, in 5 to 7 years, you will need to reapply the paint. Which can be done in only 2 to 3 minutes. Thanks so much for watching!
Hi Bob, thanks for watching and for the comment. Welcome to the hobby, I hope you enjoy it!! I use a trinocular boom microscope from Amscope with a barlow lens. The barlow lens gives you more room between the bottom of the lens and your work surface. There's lots of info out there but that's a place to start your research. Hope this helps.
This works. Being that the original enamel is already gone I don’t see any reason to want to return it to that state. I use the enemal paint and wipe away the excess with a q-tip dipped in denatured alcohol. No mess and pretty quick. Do you have Instagram?

Hey Stephan, that's a great tip! Thanks for watching and for the great comment!!
Appreciate the tip !
You bet, thanks for watching.
That a wonderful tip, let’s say you wash all the parts later. Will all the acrylic paint be washed away?

Will this come off in a later clean, in solvent or with ultrasound?

I am really new to the hobby, what type of scope do you recommend and or magnification? Hope you read your comments
