Anything worthwhile over and above a Weishi 1900 timegrapher?

Hey all,

I have a Weishi 1900, and it seems to work well, but I wouldnt mind a more advanced one, perhaps also to compare readings with?

So I see there is a Weishi 3000 and 6000 as well as a MTG-9900A. Are they worth getting over a Weishi 1900? I dont really care for printing (I am just a hobbyist), but I suppose an auto positioning mic would be cool. I am just trying to understand cost vs functionality of these timegraphers.

Please let me know your experiences with the above.

Thanks,

loiphin.

Your ultrasonic cleaner is more powerful than you realise

Placing a piece of regular aluminium foil (suspended on a piece of wire) into an ultrasonic cleaner (a very basic small one) with plain water for 30 seconds and it tears up like this.

So take care of your sensitive watch parts boys and girls :)

Some worn out pallet fork stones!

First time I have seen such worn out pallet stones on an old Stowa pocket watch.

Anyone seen stones in such a state?
