SOLD AS IS This used Vibrograf Timer has been serviced by Jack Phillips, who is was an authorized service agent for Vibrograf before Jack retired and sold his service business. Since being serviced by Jack it has spent 6 years waiting for an owner. We have now dropped the price from $980.00 to $750.00. It is now sold as is and should be serviced again in order to use. The timer provides rate and beat on a paper tape. For decades the Vibrograf has been the timer by which others are judged.

This is a new type of timegrapher with high accuracy used to analyze and regulate mechanical watches. Why spend two to three times as much for a top of the line timegrapher machine, when this MTG3000 will do the job just fine with a Monochrome Display. Now you can test the Rate, Beat Error and Amplitude as required by Leading Watch Companies. There are two display usages: horizontal and vertical. 6 frequencies (18000, 19800, 21600, 25200, 28800, 36000) of mechanical watches made in everywhere can be tested. The power supply is single phase AC110V-220V(+/-5%). Frequency can be self-identified by this apparatus, it also can be fixed manually. 9 test-azimuth can be used. Daily rate (+/-300 s/d), allowable tolerance (+/-1 s/d). Amplitude: 100 - 350 degree, allowable tolerance (+/-3 degree). Beat error: 0-4.0ms, allowable tolerance (+/-0.1ms). Life angle: 30-60 degree, ex-works value: 52 degree. While testing using the TYMC tester, you can hear the sound of the beat noise from a built in speaker, you can turn the sound off by pushing the "sound" button.

The Witschi Watch Expert2 is a new machine by Witschi. User friendly, modern electronic test instrument for mechanical watches. The LCD graphic display shows the beat trace, as well as numerical data on the rate, beat error, and amplitude. The WATCH EXPERT II is based on new measuring technology by Witschi, called Chronoscope. The instrument offers the watchmaker all possibilities for testing mechanical watches. A diagram of the watch beats is presented completely silently on a LCD graphic display panel. Numeric values for the rate accuracy, amplitude and beat error are automatically calculated and displayed numerically, i.e. the diagram no longer has to be manually evaluated. Operation for conventional watches is largely automated. The measurement parameters can be manually selected for special watches or for special measurements. With the new measuring mode, watches with a special escapement system can also be measured. The Watch Expert 2 is today the only homologated Instrument for Omega Coaxial escapement. The WATCH EXPERT II provides all the test facilities that are needed for a competent repair service for mechanical watches. The instrument is mainly intended for use in service centers and in leading specialist watch suppliers.
