I am so moved when you start disassembling it! I can totally feel your passion into watchmaking, and how you’d love to bring more people into this hobby.

This reminds me of electronics technical school when the guys next to me in the lab said the instructions to breadboard a simple AM radio circuit were incorrect as they couldn't get it to work. The instructor sat down and pieced it together from the instruction diagram and showed that it worked on the scope. The guys thought they lucked out and had it built for them. The instructor then pulled everything off the board and put in a pile and said "OK. Now you know it can be done. You guys do it". It was beautiful. I thought they were going to cry. :)

You gave Clint a watch kit, an assembly video, and spare parts. With patience, and a steady hand Clint can have a working watch that he built himself. He can be proud of his accomplishment. You are very generous in sharing your expertise.

The meticulousness of your craft, your voice, your sense of humor, the history behind each watch, etc. Very well executed, Sir! And thank you, Marshall, for this one in particular. I love to see you tackling challenging projects and how you problem-solve. I was half hoping you woukd take this one apart again, and then, boom! As a former Teacher, loved the didactic approach! Also, I see you wearing different watches, would love to hear about your own watch collection sometime. Or if you could take about your favourites. Im especially interested in the lesser known Swiss watches at the “bottom of the food chain” (under 1000$) 😂

Gotta admit my heart sunk when you pulled it all apart again, but you are right man... It's all about the journey, and he's got a map now;)

Many people go for cheap movements because if they don't repair it, they didn't lose much. It's GENERALLY regarded in the watch community that POCKET watches are the best for your first fixup. Just because of the bigger parts. I have found that watches are too small for me right now, and have been going for small pin pallet pocket clocks instead. Yesterday I got one that wouldn't start the previous night and got it to start but it would stop. So yesterday I stripped it down and it's running beautiful right now. Just trying to set the timing right on it because it was gained 7 minutes just yesterday afternoon and last night.

This was the best video I have seen from you so far. It made me feel like you are a true master of the craft by figuring it out for a student, then taking it apart for them to learn to do it themselves. See one, do one, teach one. Well done.

As always I love the narration you do and how genuine it feels. It really feels like I’m sitting right there next to you while you’re working.

What you did for that fledgling watch repair hobbyist was so Super Cool, I can not express my happiness at the outcome. You even managed to further blast my mind to pieces, when you sent it back to him in pieces, AFTER you successfully assembled and got it running. I think with your many other video's, of showing where to oil and grease the parts of the movement and the gems, Clint ? can properly oil and lube the watch as he assembles it for good this time. I hope you get a email, or letter from him, letting you know how well the watch is working, maybe, with a few pictures of the watch with a band, all ready to wear. OH .. By the way .. The NEW crystal ? That was a very mentor, old sage thing, to do for him. You are as good a person at heart, as you are a watch repair/restorer. God Bless you for what you do. Cheers from Michigan. P.S. I thought I would relate my one and only attempt at learning about time pieces. When I was but 8 or 9 years old My parents got me a wind up alarm clock, the kind with the two big bells on the top, with the metal clangor that rang back and forth between them. Very old school. It had to be wound every day, and it was not very good at keeping time. ONE day, when I was sorta left alone in the house, I had the bright Idea to see what made clocks work, and took apart my alarm clock, piece by piece. LOL .. I never was able to get it back together, as I had no clue where anything went. When My Dad got home from work, I just knew I was going to get the whooping of my life ( it was back when kids still got spankings for times they really messed up.). When I finally worked up the courage to tell my Dad what I had done, he smiled at me, and asked me, if I was going to try again to put it back together, he said he would help me if he could, but that clocks and watches were very complex, and people who fixed them have to spend years and years, learning how to disassemble and reassemble them correctly. I was in shock that I was not going to have to get my rear end taught a lesson. We both never did get that clock back together again, but it was fun, as we both tried to figure it out. Later in life, I learned to do a lot of things thanks to my Dad's patience with me, as I learned the things he was able to teach me. I miss him ... he went to sleep in 1999, Alzheimer's took him away from me, a few years before that.

28:35 maaan.... you like just saved a life of a patient whose heart is beating again... so much patience. Respect!

That was so fantastic that you simultaneously gave him a manual, simplified his task, and improved his final product while also facilitated his learning. I've been watching your videos all day while working as they're so relaxing and informative, but this video was frankly just so impressive!

This was honestly one of your best videos so far. I appreciate what you do here.

That watch is like putting together a 2500 pc jigsaw puzzle without the box photo to guide you!!I would think they had to have some kind of jig to put these together with if they were so mass produced, and if they were it would make sense to have a jig or tool that lined everthing up to just push it together and put the screws in. OMG I can't believe what you do at the the end!! that's priceless!!

My thought experience during this video: 1) Oh that's awesome, a viewer screwed up a watch repair and Wristwatch is fixing it! 2) Oh no.... he fixed it and now is disassembling it so viewer has to start over. 3) Oh wait... that's brilliant. Very good teaching technique.... never saw it coming. Hat's off

What I learned most from this as a noob is how to identify parts based on function. Hearing Marshall describe how he knew what part was what by the type of pinion, etc., has helped me understand the workings better.

Love how your voice went up in lightness just a little at the end as you took pleasure in disassembling the watch and sending it back 😅 Cracking job there! Good to watch 🙂

Ok, I don't really comment on youtube videos but I love that the watch was sent back in pieces. I know the "in over your head" feeling when working on someone else's project though. When I was 16 I got a ford van with the motor spread out in pieces in the back. We didn't have internet at the time either. I put it back together by simply knowing generally what the parts should do and we drove it for about 100k miles. It was definitely rewarding.

I absolutely love that you figured out the watch, and then disassembled the watch for Clint to learn to assemble it himself which was the original goal! Great teaching moment!!!! Not everyone would have had that idea. I know I wouldn't have! So cheers!!

This was awesome, even tho I was a bit sad you didn't put the assembled watch onto your timekeeping accuracy meter thingy. Would've loved if you showed that, as it would probably be quite bad, but would really show the awesomeness of your other projects - like putting a 'regular' marathon runner in the olympics once in a while.

It might have been a nice gesture to run it through the cleaner for him, but that would have just been icing on the cake. Well-taught, sir!

As one Clint used to say: "There's two kinds of people, those with loaded guns and those who dig. You dig..." Now, this Clint won't dig, but assembling this watch may prove to be even harder than digging.

This is by far one of a kind video, not only does he show that an eBay watch can be brought back to life, but he showed one of his viewers a step-by-step guide on how to do it! I tip my hat to you good sir! 🎩

You gave the guy back exactly that what he was trying to purchase when he bought the two broken watches. . . . . Thank you, on behalf of that guy, thank you very very much for being a propper upstanding gentleman of a teacher. All respect to you sir for not only fixing the watch buy also for the repair job you did to the viewers attempt at a hobby. . . . . You are an answer to a prayer i tell you. . . .

I was sitting there kind of bewildered the whole time like, “What about lubrication? And is he not going to clean the thing?” Now everything makes perfect sense, glad I watched to the end!

I am into electronic repairs and building from scratch and I could never return a radio or something else in pieces even if better organized. However, that said, I just about bust a gut laughing yet nodding my head in agreement for how you returned the parts as a learning project/lesson. Well done sir :-D

This channel is just spellbinding! I know nothing about time pieces...but As somebody who loves taking things apart but often times never gets around to putting all the pieces back together, the logic and reasoning ability inspires me to have more patience and work through reassembly as you did. No parts breakdown, schematic or anything! An excellent, inspiring video and the narration is so beneficial as I could even feel the frustration you felt when the single cover wouldn't line up properly the first several times. Thank you, thank you!

I had to laugh when you said, "Guess what?" and I knew right where you were going. Great job figuring this one out and helping to grow the hobby.

Okay, I finished this one (after my earlier comment), and GREAT JOB, SIR! It is gratifying to figure something out without help. I used to be like that but then discovered that watching KZread videos simplified and sped up the process of fixing something I had no real interest in, beyond getting it fixed. (Think HVAC and plumbing work.) It is easy today to be a great DIY-er with KZread helping you get it done, however, it makes it easy to forget how well we can figure stuff out on our own, sometimes.

One of the coolest watch repair vid I've ever seen so far... My heart seemed to have skipped a beat or two there when the watch surgeon suddenly start reaping the pieces apart after all the hard work done at trying to figure out how to make something identifiable as a time telling contraption of sorts and ending up with a watch proper in his hands...And working all right.... Geez!... But again, it was all part of a learning process for both the video maker and the viewer... It all made sense again!... Thanks! Nice vid, now I'll need some vacation...

The fact that I can purchase a nice looking automatic dive watch for about $90.00 (Invicta) Is unbelievable. After watching your videos, I have come to have a great appreciation for affordable mechanical watches. Your videos are not only interesting, but educatilnal as well. You are a natural teacher.

I am a mechanic that fell asleep on tool video and woke up to your channel and ...O...M.....G is this exciting or what!!!! I have tools from 1940’s and love the history of things. I thought working on a carburetor was complicated but this is just another level. I already watched the video on tools you need to start and I just need to make some room in the garage and if we go!!!! Marshall you are amazing!!!

Great job figuring this strange, cheap movement out. I didn't think it was possible. Nice that you could help him out. I have thrown away a few "projects" myself. We all have to learn the hard way. Good luck with the main plate, that's the tricky one.

There is nothing like watching a new Marshall video on a Sunday morning: thank you so much. You could have left that one plate in place though. It is hard to imagine the poor beginner putting that back on.

That's the whole hard part!

Great video, Marshall. One of the very few times that it's OK to have left over parts after you finish!

Unexpected ending! I kind of hoped to see it on the time grapher though to see how well it was running but we'll just say it was perfect xD

This was just thrilling to watch. I admit I'm writing this (and have given the thumbs up) before having watched the complete thing. It absolutely appeals to the puzzle-solver in my brain. I was ridiculously excited to see a bag of parts! Lol. I couldn't/can't wait to see how you put this all together. And kudos to you for being a teacher to other watchmakers. Really is an exemplary moment in supporting this hobby.

Cant watch right away but droppin' the like ahead of time. Cant wait to settle in and watch this one. 💙

I love the fact you sent it back as parts,... ❤

So suspenseful! Most suspenseful video yet. It was very hard not skip to the end and see what happened. How is this man laughing; the tension is palpable. This is literally the most suspenseful movie I've seen all year!

I loved listening to your thought process as you reassembled the Sears watch. Also I see why it's best to start with a bigger pocket watch that is higher quality then this lower end time piece.

Excellent adventure! Early in my watch repair journey I set out to service a vintage Swiss Roskopf “dollar pocket watch”, which looked simple. I don’t think it had more than a few jewels (maybe none) and it used a pin pallet escapement rather than the usual pallet fork. The watch came apart easily, but reassembly was incredibly difficult because the pivots just didn’t want to go back in the plate holes. So I feel your pain! And watch out for Roskopf “simple” movements!

Dude... I was ready to throw tools down and take a break in frustration at that wheel train, and I don’t have any watchmaking tools! Your patience and perseverance are amazing! Excellent work, and thanks for the video!

I love how you ended this video… creating a detailed video for him to put it back together was such a great idea.. Well done
