Super Rare Omega Constellation From The 70s

Ойын-сауық

I am maintaining an Omega Constellation equipped with caliber 1012. The watch is from the 1970s and is in great condition for its age.
This particular Omega movement had several hidden challenges. I did my best to clean and lubricate it.
Hope you enjoy the video 😊

    Обслуживание часов , очень увлекательное занятие . Со родни ремонту или обслуживанию редукторов трансмиссии автомобилей , коробок переключения передач , с той только разницей , что если уронить шестерню редуктора , то трудно будет ее не заметить на месте её падения . С часами веселее , упавшую куда то деталь часов , порой приходится долго искать , и удаётся найти в самых неожиданных местах . Например выстрельнувшую пружинку противоударного устройства оси баланса , я нашел , когда посмотрел на себя в зеркало . Пружинка была у меня на брови . А в процессе её поиска , я исползал весь пол вокруг рабочего стола , подсвечивая себе фонариком . Настолько важна чистота рабочего места и хотя бы полтора метра вокруг него . Для этой профессии или увлечения требуется фантастическая усидчивость , аккуратность и терпение . А с возрастом , всё быстрее устаёт спина и неприятные ощущения сокращают время , которое можно усидеть за любимым занятием по обслуживанию механизмов . Лет сто назад и пятьдесят лет назад делали люди отличные часы , которые увы , стоили довольно дорого . А ныне их можно купить относительно не дорого , но все они нуждаются в обслуживании , а порой и в ремонте , поэтому умение обслуживать и ремонтировать часы сегодня ценится . Часов много , а хороших часовщиков всегда не хватает . Далеко не каждый желающий , может и захочет заниматься таким скрупулёзным занятием . Я умею обслуживать часы и имею для этого необходимый набор инструментов . Как ни странно , с интересом смотрю подобные видео . Возможно ещё и потому , что не все виды часов попадали в мои руки и мне интересно , как они устроены , и как их следует обслуживать . Сам до сих пор ношу механические часы , с удовольствием , хотя всё больше склоняюсь к мысли , что кварцевые часы проще в эксплуатации . В разное время , при разных условиях ношу разные часы . Главным образом , чтобы уберечь ценные для меня часы от ударов или замыкания ими электрических цепей , когда работаю с электрическим оборудованием , находящимся под напряжением .

    The watch has minus 2.5 seconds before cleaning. As I said it is not so bad. In general watches has to be regulated in PLUS. So I regulate it similar to chronometer values which is +3 to +6 seconds per day. Thank you for watching
