Did you know...

That since August 1, 2020, Gebrüder Boley has been the official representative in Europe for all HERMLE spare parts and large movements.

In addition, we have been supporting the spare parts service of other large clock manufacturers such as Kieninger, SBS, Regula, etc. for many years and keep an extensive spare parts warehouse available for you.

Recently we have significantly expanded the calibre database for large clockworks. In our online shop you will find a wealth of information for your daily movement service for large clocks such as original illustrations, exploded views and parts lists.

Simply bundle your requirements and order your large clock parts together with your regular spare parts orders.

Always keep an eye on your order and always know the status of your shipment. 

As soon as we receive your order, you can already see the picking status at the light of the traffic lights. A yellow signal means that your order is in the warehouse and is currently being assembled, green traffic lights indicate that the shipment is already packed and on its way to you. 

Did you know that the processing time of your order between incoming and outgoing goods takes only 10 minutes on average?

We have now also integrated a tracking function. With a simple click you will be forwarded directly to the carrier of your shipment and can thus track the progress of your shipment exactly.

Boley has made himself smart for you at Langer Magnetschließen and was able to elicit some interesting news and information from the Aichhorn couple.

Gebr. Boley:

How did the idea for the new patent "X" come about?

Aichorn/Langer Magnetschließen:

When wearing bracelets with magnetic clasps, they often attracted magnetic objects such as paper clips, which was perceived as annoying. We wanted to avoid this effect with the development of patent "X". To achieve this, we bundle and center the magnetic force inwards and simultaneously reduce the magnetic radiation outwards. In addition, the demand for ever smaller strong magnets is unbroken.

Boley:

What are the advantages of patent "X"?

Aichhorn:

The shielded magnetic clasp, whose magnetic force is centered in the middle, has a higher pulling force. In addition, the outer shell is better protected and magnetic parts do not get caught. This makes it ideally suited as a bracelet clasp, even when working at a desk or work table.

Boley:

Does this also mean that these magnetic clasps prevent the accidental magnetization of watches or their movements? This is a big problem for watchmakers regarding the accuracy of quartz and mechanical movements. Who is the target group for Patent "X"?

Aichhorn:

People who wear a bracelet with a magnetic clasp parallel to their mechanical watch. Also people with a preference for heavy necklaces, e.g. with stones, due to the strongly bundled magnetic force. 

Boley:

How does the pulling power differ from ECO, Classic and Patent "X"?

Aichhorn:

Basically, the pulling force depends on the size of the clasp and thus on the size of the magnet. Not so with Patent X, it increases the magnetic force towards the inner center!

Boley:

Does the pulling force decrease with the wearing time?

Aichhorn:

When worn, the power magnets lose (almost) no tractive force, i.e. 3 percent in 30 years. However, when heated above 60° C (be careful when storing in shop windows/cars or when polishing) the tensile strength can decrease or be lost.

Statement from the international association of ear piercing specialists (EPM) e.V.

Assessment and recommendations on protective and safety measures for ear piercing

Aachen, 21.4.2020 - With the gradual opening of the retail trade and the resulting easing of restrictions in many European countries, we hereby outline our assessment and recommendations as the International Association of Ear-Piercing Specialists (EPM) e.V. for the safe resumption and practice of ear-piercing in times of the Corona Pandemic.

According to EPM's assessment, there is no extraordinary risk of infection in ear piercing beyond the normal risk of infection of the general population.

The safe resumption and practice of ear piercing is justified by appropriate protective and safety measures, which are already at a high standard, especially within the framework of the legal hygiene regulations. In this context, we also refer to the hygiene plans of the manufacturers of ear piercing systems, which cover topics such as hand and surface disinfection, as well as the necessary declarations of consent, which not least guarantee that customers can be reached subsequently if necessary.

In order to further minimise the risk of infection with the corona virus, we recommend, in addition to the applicable hygiene measures, further flanking protective and safety measures for the safe resumption and practice of ear piercing; in detail

1. ear piercing specialists should wear gloves and - where prescribed - also mouth and nose masks
2. where required, clients must also wear mouth and nose masks. Sick or infected customers should not be served.
3. hand disinfection should also be provided.
4. surface disinfection should be provided before and after each ear piercing process.

In the opinion of EPM, ear piercing can be resumed and practiced in times of corona pandemic, provided that the recommended protective and safety measures are observed.

Sony has divested its battery business and will be taken over by Murata.

The Japanese company Murata is already very successfully established in the industrial battery business and has been producing button cells for Sony for years. Due to the withdrawal of Sony from the battery business, Murata has also taken over the distribution of the button cells. 

Murata button cells are manufactured on the same production line with the same production team. This ensures that you continue to receive the quality and longevity you are accustomed to.

Murata button cells will be available from January 2020.
