Wow. Just wow. I see a lot of restoration people take watches that look sad and dirty and then just get them mechanically working but leave them decrepit looking and say they’ve given them a new life. *THIS* is a new life! I love seeing things restored to their original glory because they’re something we’ll never get to see again as they were unless someone like you does this. This thing is beautiful and it would be a shame for it to not get to be fully appreciated like it was new. I’m sure this comment will get lost in the sea of comments, but well done sir.

Exactly my thoughts when I watched this video. The restoration was incredible and witnessing these things fully restored is like traveling back in time. Simply incredible!
In a throwaway society it's so nice to see this level of preservation, of a product so well made, beautiful work
Thanks again Joe for inviting us into your amazing world. The level of work you consistently display is unequaled. What a gift you have. Bless you and your family!

Thanks mate
You certainly showed the Force in restoring that watch! An absolute Jedi masterpiece!
I find it quite mind-blowing to consider the feat of engineering and design that goes in to making a watch, especially one of this caliber. Then to observe the skills of the watchmaker, servicing such a marvel of design. Sometimes, KZread gets it right in its recommendations. Thanks for sharing your work.
So much for no Star Wars references and jokes. 😆😆 I must tell you, my friend, this was one of the most enjoyable restorations you have done so far. Your work is impeccable, utter perfection, and a joy to watch. Seeing you even restore the box was refreshing, seeing as most people would consider that a throwaway item, but you did it anyway. Thank you for always giving us your best. It's greatly appreciated. I can't wait to see your next project, and I'm sure it will be breathtaking. Stay safe, and we’ll see you on the next one-much love from South Texas.🥰🥰

Sometimes, when I can't sleep, I watch one of your videos and it calms my mind and switches off the thousands of random thoughts enough for me to sleep. This is not to say that your work is boring. On the contrary, the steady, precise and fun way you approach your work, while dealing with the multitude of miniature parts, is so reassuring. Thank you very much
Nothing short of wonderful. What a perfect escape from this insane world. Many thanks from out here in KZread land!
Just finished watching this amazing video.having a mechanic father,and a mechanic brother,both disassembling and reconditioning car engines in the late 50s and 1960s,I do have appreciation of the dedications and experiences of folks like you.well done.
Wow, how on earth can somebody engineer such a precise tiny object, and your restoration of it is simply masterful - to see it so beautiful again is satisfying.
I'm a very mechanically oriented guy, yet this is truly incredible. The design, engineering, fabrication of the parts, and the ridiculous precision of those parts and perfect assembly and function, just amazes me everytime I view one of these.
Another complete banger! Been waiting for this for a while. The lengths Nekkid will go for perfection is much appreciated. The GoAT
OMG friend your skills are beyond Yoda's you are a true watch Jedi!😮❤
My DAd went to watchmakers school in the mid 19404's after teh war and had his own jewelry shop for 20 years. I saw all of these tools and never saw him work on watches. Your artistry, skill, attention to detail, and careful restoration bring me closer to understanding what my Father loved about working with watches; thanks.

Absolutely Beautiful Restoration Brother! ❤🎉 As the heir of a Swiss watchmaker, I can say WE appreciate the care and love you put into giving these timepieces a second Life.

Nekkid is the most amazing confluence of technically mechanical wizardry and natural artistry on KZread (or anywhere else for that matter)...with spiritual and the purest human calmness thrown in for good measure. We owe him our never ending gratitude.
That has to be the most complicated watch I've seen. I'm standing here beside myself with admiration for you and your skill as a watchmaker. Well done sir!! Your able bodied assistant Trouble deserves a lot of credit for keeping you awake.
Sir, you are a true artist at your craft. But the thing I'm most impressed of is. The was you gave our Lord the glory. Thank you for the video. Great work. God bless you and yours.
This is one hell of a restoration! Bravo!
Your skills have no bounds. That is without a doubt the finest restoration of a watch I've ever seen. You are the Jedi .

This is truly a revival of this watch, awesome. So pleasant to watch the video.
Oh my God! This is one restoration that takes the breath out of you! It’s a fantastic from start to finish! It really is over engineered for what it is! But the result you performs is excellent! Both box, bracelet and watch is a testament to your skill! Thank you again!

Also beautiful restoration work,you are truly a master at your craft. You are also very good at parenting,love the interaction with your children.
Wow, that's one of the best restorations of anything that I have ever seen - You are a true craftsman! 👍
Beautiful job!! Nice touch getting the children involved - I'm sure they appreciate your patience😅
So many many parts! Edit: just finished that was stunning I loved the editing and would have watched more!
I've watched a lot of your restoration videos, but this one is the creme- de- la-creme. It's the most complicated movement I think you have shown us. You have excelled yourself here, bravo, bravo!
I think my favorite parts of your videos are the case restorations. Such a cool process.

That is the work of a master. So many complications. Beautifully done
I don't know why your videos have suddenly been pushed to me, guess I watch too many diy videos. But out of all of the videos I watch, there's one thing that keeps coming up in my head. Where are all of the young ones? As an older guy, I fear we are losing true artists like yourself. The way you took something most would have thrown away and turned it into a ture gem, is nothing short of inspiring. The box sold me.
Absolutely superb. Love Omegas, love Starwars, this is a perfect watch for me. Just stunning. Love your resto vids.
I have never left a comment on youtube before and found your channel by a recommendation by them for this actual restoration, I was enthralled from the first moments and your true genius is astounding. this watch may be known as the Jedi but you have proved you are the "Jedi Master" Just Subscribed and now making time to watch your whole back catalogue, this truly is the very best restoration I have ever watched, thank you for your true passion shining through.

Another timepiece brought back from the dead. Such an amazing job. I felt so happy at the end of this video as if I was the one that restored it. Just to see the watch glow again, and come back to life is so rewarding. You must feel very proud of the job you've done. I think is the best restoration you've done on your channel.

I generally don't appreciate those big 1970s cases but this turned out beautifully. Wonderful work.
Well done sir! I have never seen this, that someone can disassemble and reassemble such a complicated watch so neatly and with great memory. I have a Siemaster Ocean 600 automatic, and I think it's all similar, so I sincerely admire you from the bottom of my heart, that you can remember all this, and put it together so neatly and conscientiously. I WOULD GIVE YOU THE TITLE OF ENGINEER AND CONGRATULATE PERSONALLY ON SUCH PATIENCE AND ESPECIALLY KNOWLEDGE! BRAVO - CONGRATULATIONS FROM THE WHOLE HEART!
That box… I have no words. I’ve learned a lot of techniques from you, but that was truly special. :)
What an amazing transformation, you did an absolutely fantastic job again. And the editing was top notch. Thank you for bringing us along on this and stay well!
Remarkable show of craftsmanship, artistry, great work ethics and a touch of humor. One of the very best videos on youtube; bar none.

Your sense of humor makes your video twice as enjoyable! Tis is my first one of your videos to ever watch and I will be back for more!
