TUDOR Vintage Watch Restoration - Rolex case & Tudor Dial 😍

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

In this video I will restore this beautiful Tudor watch ref 7984 with a ETA cal 1156. I am a huge fan of Rolex and Tudor watches and this vintage watch is so perfect for me
I love the combination of the Rolex Oyster case with its beautiful round shape and the modern look on this matt black Tudor dial with this amazing vintage logo.
Let's see if can make this watch even better by fixing a couple of issues and by making it running great ones again.

    Lovely to see watches like this, Rolex and Tudor made them and knew that one day a watchmaker was needed to clean and oil the watch again. Great video.

    Hi Eric, Thank you for you support. I got a vintage staking set and it is very useful. So much tool to get if you want to do a proper job. I got my bench from a watchmaker who got it from a swiss manufacturer. The bench is very nice but I don't have much information as nothing is written on it (brand or model)

    I've never seen anybody put epilame on the balance hole jewels (only the endstones). Why do you do it? Also, why didn't you use epilame on the escape wheel end stones? I believe they serve the same purpose as the balance endstones. Thanks!

    You are probably right and I can only put epilame on the endstones. I put the escape and the pallet fork in epilame too. You can only see the drying in the video at 13:09 after the treatment.
