Had a Omegas back in the mid 70's. And while in the Navy , I had left it in the shower stall . After minutes, I realize I had forgotten to retrieve it. Upon returning to the shower stall it was gone. And on a ship of 5000 men it would be impossible to find it. But I tried, with no luck. Watching you repeat this Omegas took me back so many years. That watch today would be worth much more than what I paid for it in the 70's. To replace it today it would cost 5000$+ . What a loss! Great job, enjoy the memories it brought me.

The single thought that keeps coming back to mind for me when I watch these videos is this. You are restoring the object's dignity. I know that may sound funny or overstated. There is a genuine Elegance in seeing timepieces that are good quality well in this case great quality that are brought back to as near to showroom finish and function as you can get. I am astonished that you are self-taught and that this is a hobby to you. To someone like me it is nothing short of miraculous and really admirable. I need to reach out to you for some help. Thank you for what you have shared.

It is stamped '17 Jewels' - if you ask me the whole thing is a jewel in its own right! Absolutely beautiful and a lovely restoration. I own a gold Omega Seamaster Geneve waterproof automatic that I bought new in about 1964 - I'd love to see the insides of that. 😎😎😎

Even if not filmed by Marshall, I would have him service,repair, replace parts on my watch than anyone I've seen on the internet. ..I'm here 04/24. Lovely watch ⌚ he has brought back. What utter skill and judgment of level of restoration to the watch strap replacement.

Doing up a watch like that for a gift is just priceless, my father has a classic Bulova watch from the 50's that has seen better days but no longer wears & could really do with treatment like that, thank you once again.

The seller offered to refund the purchase, but we ultimately settled on a partial refund so i have a hand wind frankenwatch. My lesson: get a photo of the movement before purchasing. Thanks for the video. Keep at it!

Oh, and apart from my comments already posted on this video, I'd like to say thanks for introducing me to watch making. I'm working on Mark's course, have an ST36 on the way, am now watching many other watch making channels, and am rapidly filling up my desk with new tools. I've gone from hardly understanding what I was looking at to writing what are probably very annoying opinionated comments on KZbin videos. I guess I should apologise for the latter, and have the good grace to wait until I've actually got some experience, but well... ;-) You see, watch making was something that I really should have done right out of high school (for several reasons), but that was in 1982 and it was right in the middle of the quartz crisis. It really didn't look like a great career choice at that point because it seemed to all be going disposable, and maybe it did for a number of years. It's still that way for maybe most people who buy a cheap quartz watch that looks ok, and they just replace it when it gets smashed or stops working. There's something magical about mechanical watches though, and it's great to see the skills and resources live on. It's also actually fascinating talking to the current young generation - many of them don't seem to be able to read an analogue watch which is just mind blowing to me, considering that there's plenty of jobs that still require being able to read a multi-indicator analogue dial. If they have trouble with a basic watch, how could they understand a micrometer, an altimeter, It's fascinating that some companies have been trying to push watches into the realm of disposable trinkets well before the quartz era. It's was Timex before Quartz - you wore the thing through thick and thin, then replaced it when it finally got smashed or stopped working. Interestingly it goes back even further than that - I have a 1917 pocket watch that I just bought off Ebay, which was obviously made in the cheapest manner available at the time with old technology (pin lever and no jewels) stamped sheet metal for bridges, and a steel nickel plated case. I'll service it when I'm confident I know what I'm doing and see how good I can get it, but it was never meant to come back from the trenches, if it even managed to get there. I'd like to document my journey right from the start, but we'll see how we go with that. If I do manage to do that, it will be pretty low res for a while.

Hi Marshall. I was really happy to see your new video on Omega Seamaster 30 (286 movement). It happens that I have one of these which I have had for 56 years (a gift from my father when I was leaving high school). Recently the mainspring broke and I got a replacement on Ebay. Yours are the only videos I have found on this particular movement, so for that I'm really grateful. But I wish you'd focused more on the oiling! You sometimes quietly apply oil, without telling which oil or even mentioning it. Maybe I'm hoping for too much!

I know it's an older video and you've probably improved by now, but when sanding on a flat plane (like your paper on the steel block), it's best to go in a figure-eight pattern unless you're aiming for a specific "grain" orientation. The figure-eight combined with small rotations will help hide and lines created by sanding.

You know, watch repair is not my thing. I've never even owned a decent wristwatch the truth be known. This said, I am a fan of your videos because they are so cool. Watch repair is cool. The tiny specialty tools are cool. Your enthusiasm for this hobby/profession is cool. And the fact that you talk about what you are doing, sharing tips and educating people like me is cool. The screws, the tiny gears, the overlapping component parts... Whew, they all look the same to me!?! Thank you for informing me on a topic that I had no clue. Marshall you are one Cool Dude!

I just watched you put that Seamaster back into action and I also like that click sound when you put the spring in the spring case. My wife bought me a Ernest Borel watch for my 21st birthday and that watch I gave to my eldest grandson for his 29 birthday and it is still going.

Absolutely love your videos; so professional. I also took Mark Lovic’s course and loved it. Best thing is I learn something from each of your videos as I try to get better at this fascinating and fun hobby, so many thanks for taking the time to share your experiences (and mistakes). I’m sure your enthusiasm has helped lots of people take the leap into this amazing world I wish I had discovered years ago.

Fantastic video, enjoyed tremendously. I have a 1975 Omega Seamaster purchased in Hong Kong when on my way back to UK. I have only once had it serviced in all that time and after watching this video I must take it in for another service. Many thanks for a great evenings entertainment. Gerry

EXCELLENT! So satisfieding watching as you disassemble, clean, replace and repair all the intricate parts of this watch. During the mid 60's, I came across an old Omega time piece the was inoperable/broken, the main spring was wound to the point where it completely stopped. The watch was very dirty and appeared to have been under water. Initially the watch appeared to be in utter despair and beyond repair, still the watch was attractive, solid, 17 Jewel, water resistant/proof to 100 meters. The band was one of those twist any which way and wouldn't catch arm hair! 😆 Having limited tools 🔧 but an overwhelming sense of curiosity, I set out to figure out what made her Tic 🤔 Watching 👀 you disassemble and go over each intricate piece, how you name each piece and its function! People nowadays have all this invaluable information at their fingertips! What I would have given for the internet. Thank you for sharing and the educational experience. Oh and yes I did get the 21 Jewel Omega Watch working, seems all I had to do was just to release some of the energy off the main spring, just wound too tight. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 😊
