The Waltham Watch Company founded by Aaron Dennison, David Davis and Edward Howard pioneered the manufacturing of interchangeable parts. Set up in America, Massachusetts to be more specific and incorporated in 1851, it produced a broad line of affordable pocket and wrist watches in a large factory located along the banks of the Charles River in Waltham, Massachusetts. The city is about 10 miles west of Boston.

After the initial early company ran into financial difficulties and was sold at Sheriff’s auction, Mr. Dennison and Edward Howard, embarked on creating the world’s first enterprise aimed at mass watch production. After a few years of difficulties and setbacks, the best engineers and a skilled labour force were eventually employed, considerably increasing the production of watches at a low cost in the 1860s. The Waltham Company went through several changes throughout the 1800s and with each of these changes came more unique watches, but most of the collectable, antique pocket watches come from before the turn of the century. Railroad watches are particularly appealing to collectors for several reasons, even though the faces are very plain. The quality of Railroad watches was very high, second only to chronometers and the company was also the first to comply with the needs of the railroad industry, but they were quickly followed by all of the other major American watch manufacturers, including Illinois, Elgin and Hamilton. It is these pocket watches, frequently featuring as many as 23 jewels and six adjustable positions instead of five, that are most sought after by collectors. American watch manufacturers were obsessed primarily with uniformity of their movements. The Waltham Watch Company continued to mass produce watches right up until 1957.

Antique pocket watches are not accurate by today’s standards. A good watch, cleaned and adjusted with care, can achieve an accuracy of +/- one minute per 24 hours. Watch cases were made in a variety of metals. You can usually find out what type of metal your case is made out of by looking inside the back cover. Watches would have to keep accurate time to within fractions of a minute per week. They would need to be impervious to temperature swings or the orientation in which they were held. Case parts such as bezels are mostly not available; they must be taken from another watch. Generic parts such as crowns and crystals can usually, but not always, be obtained. Cases are buffed, crystals are polished and bands are cleaned. Mechanical watches utilize energy from a wound spring. They keep time through a regulated release of energy through the wheel train, which is a set of gears, and an escapement.

Here are a few old fashioned watchmaker’s tips to get you going:

Removing Movement from Case – The first thing to do is take the watch, or rather its mechanism or “movement.” out of the case. In the Waltham, the movement is held in the case by two dog screws at the edge of the back plate. Having turned these, the movement can be pushed out from the back of the case. It will be noticed that near to the two o’clock there is a small pin in the edge of the movement, which fits into a hole in the case edge and keeps the movement in position when the dog screws are tightened. Having taken the movement out it will be seen to consist of a frame containing the barrel and train wheels. On the front of it is the dial and on the back, held by the balance cock. This, together with the hairspring, is really the most important part of the watch; the timekeeping depends on it, and it serves the same purpose as the pendulum of the clock. When set vibrating, or revolving backward and forwards under the influence of its hairspring, it will move quite regularly, whether it is turning only a quarter of a turn each way or a turn and a half. As a matter of fact, there is in most watches an extremely small difference between times of the long and short vibrations, but this may be ignored for the present. The consequence of this equality in time of the vibrations of the balance is that, provided the mechanism of the watch is in fair order and capable of keeping the balance vibrating, the watch is sure to keep fairly good time, provided the balance and hairspring are themselves in perfect order. If the balance or spring is faulty, then the best possible mechanism in the rest of the watch will fail to make it go well. The essential points of a good balance are as follows: It must be in perfect poise – that is to say, its rim must have no heavy part, but balanced exactly, so that no matter in what position the watch is held, the balance will act the same. Then it must have fine and smooth pivots, working in well-fitting and smooth jewel holes and the ends of the pivots must rest on smooth end stones. The balance itself must revolve quite freely, not being nipped by the presence of the end stones on the pivots, but having just the least consequence of lift or end shake to ensure absolute freedom. The balance must not touch anything as it revolves or its freedom of motion will be impaired. For instance, the balance cross-arm sometimes touches the outer coils of the hairspring, and in such a case it cannot possibly keep time. The hairspring must be flat and true in its coils, not wobbling as the balance turns; and it must not touch anything. So the first thing to look at, on taking the watch out of its case, is the balance and hairspring. Give it a spin, and see if it revolves truly. Hold the watch up to the light and look at the pivots sideways as the balance revolves. If they are bent, a wobbling will be discernible. Try the end shake with the points of a pair of fine tweezers, lifting the balance rim and letting it fall again to see what lift it has. When doing this do not look at the rim, as that may be bent, and so be deceptive, but watch the roller or the top pivot. Then the exact amount of lift can be seen. If the balance seems true and free, look at its spring carefully. If that is also free, and seems perfect, the balance cock, may be removed, together with the attached balance and spring, and passed as in fair order.

I’m curious. When it’s not got the computer monitor behind it looks like it’s vibrating at the same speed no matter what pitch I change it to, but when I look at the string in front of the monitor, it appears to slowly… sort of swim, like a sperm tail would, and it changes at different pitches. Why does a computer monitor do this?

Raising your vibration is simply one of the fastest ways to see the Law of Attraction in action in your life. If you start to feel good the universe will immediately begin aligning itself to bring you your desires and as long as you maintain that feeling it is possible that everything you want will show up in your life with lightening speed.

Unfortunately many people still do not understand the importance of this very simple practice and they go from seminar to seminar, book to book and guru to guru because they think, just as I did at one time, that there is something that they do not know, so they find themselves continually searching for the Missing Ingredient, the one elusive piece of information that will take them to where they want to be.

Being positive and keeping your vibration levels high enables you to attract your desires quickly and efficiently, if you are deliberately trying to attract something and your vibration is low you will most likely get poor results, often you will get exactly the opposite to what you wanted. So it is important to keep your spirit up lifted, keep your mood light and happy and be sure to keep your thoughts positive.

How do you go about raising your level of vibration?
Watch the company you keep – there are many negative people in world and if you spend your time associating with them you will be sucked down into a pool of negative talk that will assure you of attracting negative situations. It is much easier for a negative person to pull you down than it is for you to pull them up.

Surround yourself with joy – spend your time doing the things you enjoy with the people you enjoy. We all at times must do things that we do not particularly enjoy doing but not many people go out of their way to plan events that they do enjoy. Do not make the negative your primary focus. Make an effort to bring joy into your day. It does not have to be a huge activity it could be as simple as going for a stroll, as long as it is something you enjoy.

Limit media intake – we all know how negative the media can be. Newspapers, TV and the Internet alike can easily fill your mind with images of doom and gloom. Make a conscious effort to limit the amount of news that you watch. Take that half an hour that you would normally spend watching the evening news and read and uplifting book, play with your kids or chat with your spouse. It is entirely up to you how much negative information you consume, you have the power to limit it and spend your time feeding your mind with information that will lift your spirit and help you to grow.

Seek out positive influences and people – take a look at the things and people that influence you. Are they mostly positive? If they are then great, but if not make a decision to surround yourself with information, people and events that will help you to improve your life.

Following these simple tips will help you to live a more positive life and therefore raise your vibration level so that you can begin to attract the life that you truly desire.

Vibrating Watches and alarm watches are becoming very popular these days and are packed with features that were not available when they first came out.

I think one of the first popular brands was Casio and I remember well spending a lot of time reading the instructions and setting my first watch up.

All though they were a new innovation at the time and they had a lot of ‘toy’ value they were not that reliable as I recall. They had many features but understanding how to set them up I found to be quite a trial.

I was surprised at how much noise one of those small wrist alarm watches could produce. So they have no problem at all in waking you up. You can of course turn the sound down. Do you remember the old fashioned mechanical alarm clocks that used to wake you up with quite a start? Well alarm watches that are set up correctly can do just as good a job without the jump factor.

They are not only useful for waking you up in the morning they have also many features that can be used throughout the day.

They can be used as popular reminder watches if say you have an important meeting to attend. Or you may have an appointment to keep. They can be used as Pill Alarm Timers so you’ll never forget to take your medication again. Some of these alarm watches have up to 200 alarms available per day to help you manage your very active and busy lifestyle.

There are even alarm watches that claim to waken you up at the most effective and alert time. How does that work you say? Well it works like this. You set the watch to waken you up not at a specific time rather a small window of time; instead of 6.45am on the dot you choose a setting between 6.30am and 7.00am.

The watch has tracked your sleep cycles all night through the different sleep states. So the watch chooses to waken you up at your most alert state some time between your chosen time points. The makers claim you will be woken at your most refreshed and energetic time. What a marvelous idea!

Alarm watches have certainly moved on over the last few years and there is a terrific range of products to choose from. The internet is the place to shop in my opinion but go for a branded company and then you are much less likely to get duped. And remember that alarm watches are also good looking these days so you can also view your watch as a fashion accessory.

I am taking a standardized test and the watch can’t have an audible timer.
