I’ve gained an incredible appreciation for mechanical watches watching your videos.

The ultrasonic parts watching the dirt and rust removed has to be one of the highlights of each video. Thanks for the great videos. Having an apprenticeship when I was in high school working on watches, seeing this brings me a lot of joy.

You not only acquired the skill, but also creative, loved the Tetris bracelet editing!

You make watch restoration look easy. That’s the sign of a true professional.

​@@Mark-sd7fc He only resotored easy movements so far. He sticks the lever in Rodico and lubricates the entry and the exit pallet. You dont do this like that at all. Speaking of lubrication: He lubricates the movement like someone who read the assembly drawing and knows where to put lubricant (in theory), but did not learn how to lubricate a watch properly. He mostly uses tools, machinery and substances that you can buy on ebay or in your local hardware store, while most watchmakers buy their stuff from specialist dealers (you can easily spot those things if you know how those things look). He uses a dremel-tool to polish. Watchmakers are using polishing lathes because its quicker and more evenly. He changes the finish on some parts like the bezel from matted to glossy. You just dont do that. Sure, it wont hurt the watch in terms of function, but you just dont do it. Especially when its a old watch. One really bad thing was when he pressed the hands back on, using a assembly pad as an underlay. Beause that can really destroy the balance wheel pivots. But luckily the changed that. There are some more hints but i think thats enough. He seemes like he started it as a hobby and reads himself into the topic. Which is completley fine for me, dont get me wrong. Heck, id even like to give him some advice if he needs any. The only thing thats bugging me is the praise he gets in the comments (he can do nothing about that, im aware of that). I know it looks really complicated to restore a watch and most people dont have any knowledge on this topic. But seeing that is called masterfully, while being a actual master watchmaker, just upset me a little. I see that he makes progress and I hope he wont stagnate, but he still got things to learn.

@@Ravel146 You are right, in the past I lubricated the exit and the entry pallet. But as you can see in the videos I've changed that because someone pointed me on that mistake. What's wrong with buying tools on eBay instead of expensive specialist tools? They are doing the job. Pretty well in my opinion. Polishing with a dremel or lathe: I think this is something of a personal preference. At the end both tools just turn around a cotton piece with some polishing compound. In my opinion those small dremel-swabs are giving me more control of where I polish. Bezel from matted to glossy? I've taped the bezel to protect it and only used some nevr dull. That's more a cleaning than a polishing. The surface is untouched. But maybe you are referring to the first Breitling video. Hand-Setting on the cushion case, yes that was bad, I need to get the proper movement holders for all those movements. I'm always thankful to any advice and feedback. I'm just a hobbiest and I have still much to learn for sure 😉 PS: No offense ✌🏻

The "Insert Coin" stop-motion edit is what really got me haha. Keep up the great work, RDR!

Thanks for not putting music underneath the assembly part. This is the perfect format now.

I am speechless..... I am into heavy construction and Powe generation...... We ain't seen nothing yet until wee see this....... Well done.... I take my hat off to people that bring a minute watch back to life..

Not only being top skilled at the field, but also being very patients and careful with every smallest detail to make it perfect. Your work is the closest thing that could consider a kind of art.

Big thumbs up to this in-depth restoration of function and form! Not just another cockameme cleaning that is passed off as a restoration. You and the Nekkid Watchmaker are two of the few who actually restore, not just clean, watches. A real pleasure to watch and learn!

i realised that your rust remover is made out of Terminator T-1000's

I'm only 1 minute in and I'm finding this watch stunning. Can't imagine how it will look in 20 minutes. What a beauty.

Can't decide what's more impressive: your work or your video editing.

The skill and patience level in the restoration are beyond words! As for the pathetic condition of the watch inflicted, I only have one thing to say: The owner does NOT deserve a Breitling watch.

another great restoration!! Such great watches! Love seeing them brought back and loved again!!

How can anyone dislike your videos? Magnificent craftsmanship!!!

I'd like to add that I've owned my Breitling Colt Ocean automatic since 2001 and I've worn it almost everyday. I haven't babied the watch at all. I swim with it and play water sports with it on. Two years ago I had it serviced for the first time. It still ran like new but I was concerned about the age of the seals. I was told that they degrade with time. After returning it to me the watchmaker remarked that the condition of the movement was really good considering that the watch was 20 years old. I don't know how the watch in this video became so rusty. I can only assume that as some point it was submerged with out having the crown screwed down. Either that or it was improperly serviced at some point.

I'm wearing an almost identical version. Had it for 20 + years. Beautiful timepiece.

This is like an ASMR video. So calming. So much hardwork and passion.

Beautiful job; thanks for posting. I'm a fan of the ETA 2824 movements. Really good work on the bracelet and bezel too.

How can there be people giving a thumbs down? This guy always does a FANTASTIC job restoring old watches.

​@@trollse8714 You make a valid point, however if it were my personal watch I would definitely want original movement restored. Besides nostalgic reasons of keeping watch as original as possible, the $200 replacement you mentioned does not have beautiful circular graining or Breitling winding rotor. Philosophically we as humans have been finding it way too easy to throw things away. Part of the charm of a mechanical watch is that if taken care of can last generations. The rust spots left behind are just part of this watches journey. As far as the video, basic 3rd party movements can be interesting as you can see where manufacturer spent $$, and where they needed to be thrifty. The whole video: the movement, case and bracelet restoration were fascinating to me, sorry it wasn't the same for you.

I can't describe how I am amazed by the video and the details of it .Seriously Breitling watches are master piece

Accuracy, precision, and patience at it's best!!

At the moment with the reassembly of the movement, I left the chat. Fantastic work!

I also wish that there was such a great master in Kiev, Ukraine, where I live. I have a Breitling watch - a present from my late mother, a very dear memory - and I can not service them properly here. There is a "certified service" for Swiss-made watch here, but... They charged awesome money for cervicing and afterwards the watch functioned wose than before: the self-winding lasts for less than one day (I have to wind the watch manually every fucking morning!), the watch is slow for 3-4 minutes per week etc, Man, why don't you live in Kiev! Anyway, my profound admiration to your talent!

Beautiful work and I LOVE that watch!!
