  • With this first photo, we take a moment to compare the internals of the Apple Watch with that of a classic mechanical watch as old as time itself.

  • On the right, a pocket watch mechanism, circa 1890. (At 125 years old, it doesn't look a day over 39.) On the left, a smartwatch from 2015.

  • Which of these will outlast the other?

  • Although we're still dealing with a watch, this second photo makes it clear that the tools required for routine repairs have very much changed with the times.

  • You're already familiar with our friends on the left: opening pick, tweezer, driver, and tech knife.

  • On the right, the tool with the Mickey Mouse ears is none other than a pallet fork tool. To its immediate right, we've got a pin vise. Below that, a roller jewel shlacking tool...

  • ...and to its right, tweezers! Some things really don't change. (Though our resident watchmaker informs us that it's perhaps more accurately called "the lazy man's screw holder.")

Mit diesem frühen Foto vergleichen wir die Innereien der Apple Watch mit denen einer klassisch-mechanischen Uhr, die so alt wie die Zeit selbst ist.

Auf der rechten Seite der Taschenuhr-Mechanismus von circa 1890. (Die Uhr ist zwar 125 Jahre alt, aber würde auf keine Ü40-Party kommen.) Auf der linken Seite die Smartwatch von 2015.

Welche wird wohl die andere überleben?

Auch wenn wir immer noch mit einer Uhr arbeiten, macht das zweite Foto deutlich, wie sehr sich die Werkzeuge für eine Routine-Reparatur verändert haben.

Unsere Freunde auf der linken Seite kennst du bereits: Opening Picks, Pinzette, Schraubendreher und Messer.

Auf der rechten Seite, mit den Mickey Mouse Ohren, befindet sich ein Anker-Werkzeug. Direkt rechts daneben liegt ein Mini-Handbohrer. Darunter haben wir ein Werkzeug für die Justierung des Hebelsteins...

...und rechts daneben eine Pinzette. Manche Dinge verändern sich eben nie (auch wenn unser lokaler Uhrmacher meint, dies wäre eigentlich nur "die Schraubenhalterung des faulen Mannes").
