Pressure about the weight of a bottle of water is the best analogy I think you could've made. Extremely helpful narration and video. Well done!

Thanks Chris. I do believe I heard that somewhere before when I was learning so I’m passing the torch 😉. I’m really happy the content was helpful for you my friend. That’s what it’s all about. 🤝

Great Video! Please keep making them. I love how you are supporting the Watch enthusiast community. This video takes the fear out of cracking the case.

[@Skyler.Santana]

Thanks you brother! I will definitely continue to create this kind of content moving forward when inspired. Modding has been a big part of my watch hobby so I enjoy sharing the experiences.

Another great video, this is the one part of watch modding that has me the most nervous but you explain it all really well 👍🏻

[@Skyler.Santana]

Thank you kindly my friend. I’m glad you liked the content. I really appreciate you checking in. 🫡

I have a few watches where the second hand has become detached but the watches aren’t really worth a potentially pricey trip to a watchmaker. I’ll send off for the tools I don’t already have which will likely pay for themselves within a couple of repairs so thanks for this walkthrough.

[@Skyler.Santana]

Ohh that does suck but I’m glad this video will help you out! It’s exactly why I wanted to put this out there. Best of luck reattaching the hands my friend. Thanks for checking out the video 🤝

Please help!: When i put the second hand on, the movement stops. Why is this? When i remove the second hand again, the watch continues to move as normal.

[@Skyler.Santana]

Interesting. 🤔 I don’t think I have experienced that problem before my self. @Dadmodswatches might have the answer. I’ll send your question to him to see if he knows. My guess would be that the hand isn’t properly attached tho it may seem that way when you push down on it.

[@Skyler.Santana]

@@alfredboling3779 so here are a few reasons why this is happening 1. Faulty or interference on the pinion 2. The movement is damaged some where in the transfer or regulation of power 3. You think the second hand is sitting correctly but it isn’t properly installed. Question for you. Have you applied to much pressure on to the pinion? About the pressure of a water bottle sitting on top of your hand is all you need.

Sweet bro!! Hands are a bitch for my blind ass so I have to use a cheater bar. I use the rodico to pick up the hand leaving just the applied sticking out. Second hand is always touchy😊
