    Nice work. Movement had some real moisture damage. Did you ever get the beat error adjusted? Hopefully you also got the amplitude up higher. I noticed it was only around 240 on the dial down position. 👍🏼

    Hey, thank you. Yeah the beat error could be adjusted very easily. As soon its at about 2.0ms you can use the balance arms (I actually dont know the english word right now sorry!) to adjust it. The amplitude is not that high you are absolutely right but what I have seen from other watchmakers who know this movement they told me its not a typical high amplitude movement. Most are in the range from 240-260. But keep in mind the mainspring in my video was not fully wound up. I think 250 is realistic for this one. Thanks for the comments and I am happy to see people are looking concentrated! Hats off to you sir :)

    Well done, you obviously put in a lot of time and effort to restore this old watch. I love the Frankenstein watch cleaning machine, I half expected you to say “It’s Alive” when it started running. You need come up with cooler name for your channel though, or is Uhren Dantler super cool in your language?

    Thank you! Yeah its some Kind of Frankenstein machine. I am currently working on it! If you are interested I will post some pictures on Instagram :) Yeah the „Name thing“ is somehow difficult. Uhren Dantler is a kind of a local used term in my hometown region for a person who is doing things with watches (what things? It can be everything! :D). But if you have cool suggestions let me know maybe I will choose a more english based name. I absolutely got your point! Cheers

    Fine video Kudos for doing the job with the rusty movement. A lot of effort and time put into the work Impressive job on the cleaning machine- I think you have to minimise the frothing though. Perhaps be more consistent with the finger cots Keep up the good job

    How did beat error turn out using beat corrector. I question if a balance complete at $120.00 wouldn’t have been better use of time and money.
