As always when I look at a watch movement I am surprised by how small everything is. It's a shock compared to what is shown in a large monitor with a good camera setup in an online video for instance.

What really caught my eye was when I took a look inside the case back. There is tiny 0.5mm writing: MB (initials?) and 1288 (month/year?) 

Also I am testing uploading images as well, so sorry if it isn't formatted correctly :)

Also I was a little worried about my screwdriver technique but after looking inside I don't think any one will be able to tell my slips from what is already there, heh!

There will be a glorious attempt at disassembly, followed by many a muttered epithets. Then victory will be declared whether in the scrap bin or not. Please do not tell my wife how much a real set a screwdrivers actually cost!
