Easy maybe, but cheap? Never. Cost you an arm and a leg , if not the whole house, if you're not careful.

I have one, the mechanism can't be heard unless you take off the glass case and listen very closely in a very, very quiet room. Mine is from 1956 and is in dire need of work on the diaphragm system...

Over time, you will ruin the gaskets.
I go regularly to the sauna here in Germany and have a ruined Seiko SK007 as a result: the gaskets, over time, melted, hardened and abandoned their function,...
Two things:
1) It's an index, based to a set point in time, and the difference between 100 (the base time period) and the current value of the index is the cumulative change in the values of the...

Skip the bourbon, as they won't have the oomph you are looking for. Try a Rittenhouse Rye Whisky for something much, much more like a Balvenie or the like. Nothing has the peat of a Laphroig or...
OUTRAGEOUS!
Somebody in Switzerland - Martin Schneider of Brügg, to be exact - has decided that he can sell watches using the Precista name.
