New York Time's article on a watch repairer "Click" to Login or Register 
posted January 22, 2012 18:22
The New York times occasionally runs articles on unusual NYC business. A recent one is on a watch repairer, Dimitrie Vicovanu. He does every thing from battery replacement to very rare watches for Sotheby's. Maybe it will cause some people to realize that their family heirloom is repairable, or to get interested in the hobby.

Can anyone identify the watch shown in the photo?

Sorry, but it gives me shivers to see an exacto knife that close to a watch movement, especially this one!
