w hello all

I do a lot of watch repair. The watch & clockmaker's supply company S.
Larose
http://www.slarose.com/ has a very good selection of loupes of
various types (hand held, eyeglass mount, headband type). Go to the
site & search "loupe". Since I wear glasses, I find the eyeglass mount
type especially convenient, they can produce 2 strengths & flip out of
the way easily if you're alternating tasks.
