@michael mccann ... Kinda crazy, so much radioactive material, for such a short period of useful functionality. A mere 1,600 years for its half-life, but barely half the usage life of a tritium based illumination. One has a short half-life that limits it usage period, the other can't last even half that time due to the decomposition of the zinc matrix it's bounded with; but then thousands of years of radiation still left.

I’ve been watching every single one of your videos since you began. And this is one of the videos I recall watching during our lockdown here in the U.S. - and much like yourself, I’m something of a sentimental man. I intentionally sought this video out again, as what you mentioned - that you hoped when the dark days were over, we would remember the kindness, compassion and love for one another - stuck with me all this time. Here we are, 4 years later, and what we’re seeing…well…maybe we can still hope. Until then, I’ll keep watching you perform your magic on these beautiful pieces of micro-mechanical history, and enjoying your narrations, poems, history lessons of the world of horology, and as always…I wish you and your family well. Thank you for doing exactly what you do. Cheers!

As a child, in the 1950's, I used to watch my Father strip down, clean and re-assemble time pieces for friends and relatives. I wouldn't talk, move or twitch, I was fascinated by what he was doing. I imagine you sitting there with a Jewellers glass, as you do this. My Dad never explained what he was doing, all I knew was that my Dad was a magician who gave people back what they needed. You speak about different oils and lubricants and cleaning methods. My Dad had lighter fluid for cleaning and 3In1 Oil for a lubricant. I now wish that I'd asked questions and asked him what he was doing and to teach me what he was doing. Hindsight gives you 20/20 vision. Carry on with what you're doing, I've shed a little tear for missed opportunities, but I really enjoy your professionalism and obvious love for your calling. More power to you and long may you continue.

More men like this one is what this world needs. There used to be more, before we decided that money was the most important thing. How foolish we were. Past generations learned that lesson for us, but we didn’t take heed. Now, we are seeing the results, but it isn’t over yet. We still have a long road to travel. I am sad about leaving this broken mess for the next generation. But my travels are almost over now, so I do my best to advise my family and friends. I listen to the old radio programs fro the late ‘40’s and ‘50’s to keep my spirits up. I can hear a maturity and optimism in their voices. It is unmistakable, like a Southern accent. I am reminded of what we once were and could be again. Or should I say, will be again.

I’m always amazed at the before and after pictures of the watches that you restore. It’s a natural talent reserved for very few people!

I'd go and assume he has spent a lot of time learning this skill instead of it being a natural talent :D

You have a dry sense of humor, I found myself truly laughing out loud starting with the happy face on your finger 😊 then with the yellow gloves and. Then the ice cream truck. The accountant lolololol!

@@NekkidWatchmaker Beautiful job. Just to let you know that a manicurist file/sanding block will shape itself to what needs to be filed. Its a small rectangular sponge block with 4 different file grits on each side. Much easier to use than a nail file with a much smoother grit to remove scratches. It also has a 90 degree angle with grit on both sides for corners. I was expecting to hear a southern Mississippi accent because of the name of your channel. 'Nekkid' is how we pronounce 'naked', here. I was pleasantly surprised by your beautiful accent and subtle jokes..
