Anybody ever hear of this stuff or has anybody ever used it for anything?

Maybe MC Esher used it?

hehehehe

Actually, never heard of it.  Looks like it's a thin oil that doesn't degrade and is used for watches.  What do you want to use it for?

Bill, tgo

Came here looking for some Jean Giraud bass related content...

Not just a bass, this is an Alembic!

I thought it could be used for some wonky tuners on a non-Alembic instrument that some of us, myself included, might have.

I use plain old 3-in-1 oil for open tuners.   Squirt a little into the gears, then take one of those hand crank winder tools and wind back and forth a few dozen times.

Didn't the Grateful Dead use this product?  You know..."just like a Swiss watch!"
The only thing that stays the same is change.

I had just one very tight tuner on the Rogue despite the others were turning like butter on this second hand Rogue that I bought, after some time I figured someone had tighten real hard that screw at button on the gripping tuner and was just a matter of losening it a little...

Alembic tuners aren't sealed? Never thought on oil them in 20 years...

That's the only oil I'll use when my Moebius gets squeaky.
