ASMR: Maintenance of Jaeger LeCoultre Reveil
Ойын-сауық
Today I maintain this beautiful Jaeger LECoultre Master Control Reveil (Alarm) Automatic. It looks good, but has never been maintained at all. I share with you how I clean and lubricate this watch and make it as beautiful as it originally was.
The watch is equipped with JLC Automatic Movement Calibre 918. It has a rare complication, a Reveil, which is French and means alarm. It is a mechanical alarm. Furthermore, the watch has an coil gong to sound even better when the alarm starts. Listen to the alarm function in the video.
Enjoy watching this ASMR video.

Masterfully done. I'm afraid your work is overshadowed by how beautiful this watch is. Not only on the outside, but also on the inside. I don't remember seeing a movement this pure. The owner of this watch must be very proud. Thank you for sharing.

Come on Paul, JLC is too far above Seiko, can't even think of them using a Seiko or for that, any other movement. That watch could cost up to 10k.

Mr. Lmar, upon further review of your reply to my comment I believe it was intended for the benefit of Mr. Stephens whose comment appeared just before mine. He made reference to the Seiko movement while I did not. However, I still agree with your characterization of JLC’s movement choice.

Beautiful video - love the 4k. The symmetry of the keyless works is nice. I kept thinking, "this looks like a nicely-finished Seiko movement." Maybe the extra jewels are like spare buttons with a jacket or spare fuses in your car 😁

I am guessing the three jewels are not completely non-functional: they probably protrude slightly above their plate and provide support for the alarm dial.

Down below in the comments there is a very plausible description. This movement can carry an chronograph module. That’s why the jewels are there. Thank you for watching ☺️

I have a question... Does removing the balance cap jewel or the entire chaton assembly before running the movement through the watch cleaning machine increase the risk of damaging the balance staff pivot? Or is it quite the opposite? Also, fantastic video! This is such a beautiful piece and the movement is absolutely gorgeous. Thank you for sharing!

I never experienced damage to the balance or balance staff while cleaning in dedicated watch cleaning machine. With or without cap jewel. The movement is truly amazing. Thank you for watching.
Great vid! But im curious, is there a plastic parts anywhere in the movement ?

No plastic inside at least I didn’t see or finde one. Why you ask about plastic?
Is it normal that the date changes at 1'30 ? I have the same issue with my Amvox 1 that changes date at 1'00 and not 12'00. So I'm wondering if I must consider servicing. Thanks for your answer
@MagicWatchmaking
Жыл бұрын
There are movements with instant date change. Date change will be exactly at midnight. Other movements have slow date change. Can start 11:30 pm or later and they need one hour or longer to finish. If any service needed I can’t tell. You have to test the watch by watchmaker.

It is normal in this movement (JLC 918), it has slow date change as @magicwatchmaking says. You don't have to service it, at least for this reason! ;)
that's an extremely clean watch, kinda surprised anything would cause it's time not to be accurate, probably just dried oil, seeing how long it takes for dissassembly makes me understand why they charge about 1000$ for a service...

The movement has few variations, and maybe the three jewels are for the extra complications like worldtimer or calendar.
