SUMMARY:Watch 230: Balance Staffing and Timing
DESCRIPTION:  \n  \nThe purpose of this course is to teach the student all the fundamentals of balance staffing. Topics covered will include the verification and analysis of the escapement function\, poising (static & dynamic)\, truing and timing adjustment in a mechanical watch. Cutting out a balance staff on a lathe and adjusting the balance staff\, and removing balance staffs from Glucydur balances with the Horia tool. \nPrerequisites: \n\nMinimum 3 years full-time experience in watch repair (and/or) having attended the following AWCI Courses:\nWATCH 200: Modern Automatic Watches\nKnowledge of watch escapement\nKnowledge of the oscillator unit\nOwnership of necessary hand tools\nOwnership of the books The Theory of Horology and The Watch Repairer’s Manual is essential. Must read pages 99-166 of\nThe Theory of Horology prior to attending the course.\n\nLength of course: 40 hours in 5 days\, (Monday – Thursday 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.\, Friday 8:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.) \nCost $1195 for AWCI members $1345 for non-members \nFor the syllabus and the tool list for the class click here. \nContact AWCI to register for this class at education@awci.com or 866-367-2924. \n
