There's a No.4 for sale as well....
Thanks for the report, Jon.
Some PuristS may know that Don is self-funding his hobby (Yes - he has a day job as well as being PPro moderator) by selling watches after Nos. 1 & 2 that obviously belong to Mrs Corson and Don.
As he is a moderator, Don would not "sell" his watches personally on our website but he stil needs equipment and raw material to continue. So, Mr PuristSPro (our anonymous website person) will sell the watch for him.
Check out the listing in our Market Place: click here
Please communicate with Mr PuristSPro directly, if interested in purchase, separate from this discussion thread and off-line. 
Regards,
MTF

Don's progress as a watchmaker is evident, a journey that a few begin and very few succeed at. It is a tough process, taking passion, dedication and an unfailing willingness to do what it takes. In the few short years since Don has started on this path, w...
I would like to thank our guest Don for attending.
Also thank you Jon for being our photographer. I would like to say a few things, as I am sure Don does not want to appear shilling for his own watches. Yes, one could be bought............ still......I think. And before I say a few things, one should emai...
Great post, Jon!
Thanks for sharing photos of Don's work with us. I have a lot of admiration for Don's ever-increasing skills as a watchmaker. He knows that I very much like his latest creation in particular. I think there is something marvelous about what Don is doing. S...
Thanks for the report Jon!
And thanks to jaysny for helping with organization of this luncheon! Quick question for Don: Which tool(s) do you plan on purchasing next? And why this tool(s)? Cheers, Anthony
Tools
First on the list is a milling machine. What I have now is a better toy. The necessary qualities for the new unit are accuracy and stiffness. As the prices of complete units are just astronomical I am assembling a unit from portions bought around the worl...

Great Report Jon!
Great Report Jon, and impressive watches Don! It's a pleasure to see we have someone who actually makes their own watches. I've been considering attending some crash-course two full day seminars about how to assemble wristwatches where they give you very ...

Instead of the course, another excellent option is to buy up a few old Seikos (the 63xx series for example), a few basic tools and have a go yourself. There are pdfs available of the (dis)assembly process for these movements. This way you don't have to wa...
Thanks for the report Jon
Looks like a lot of fun. I think I know some of the folks who were present, judging by the watches on the table. - SJX
