REBUILD, assembly made easy for ANY mechanical movement!

[@patricklogan8327]

Best watchmaking video I've seen in 4+ years of the hobby. Thank you very much. This information will stick with me always!

[@ChronoglideWatchmaking]

Wow, thanks!

[@francisleesc]

Thank you for the introduction. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙇🙇🙇🙇🙇🙇🙇

[@JeremyTyre]

Wow! A great video about explaining how to assemble a mechanical watch. I was always so intimidated by it I haven't committed to getting into the hobby. Now I think I can confidently get in it and enjoy...because it is all "child's play" Thank you for the video!!

[@matthewposter6226]

Amazing work explaining something complicated so simply! Love your function logic and method of thinking it through! Time to go fishing now... LOL.

[@THOMMGB]

I was just about ready to quit my struggling watch repair education and become a fisherman, but then I watched your amazing video. Millions of fish everywhere will thank you because they have escaped my magical fishing powers as I am going back with a better understanding of watch repair. :)

[@richardnelson7929]

Excellent tuition! Who wants to fish anyway! Many thanks.

[@PaulFisher-o4j]

Incredibly valuable tutelage sir, your pedagogy is exemplary. At this early stage in my watchmaking journey, you have really helped me lock-in the fundamentals that I need to understand. Next time I'm in NL, I will happily buy you a sack of your preferred coffee! Big thanks, more power to you.

[@wayneholmes637]

That's the first time I've seen anybody explain the pivot differences. Excellent!

[@MexicoBeachFloridaLiving]

One of the top three videos you’ve done, kalle. Bravo. Well done. 👍

[@charliehubbard4073]

Thank you for this! Very, very useful. Also... "There is no shame in fishing." LOL! Oh, I wish I had more than one like to give, just for that nugget alone!

[@James_K_L]

Kalle, what can I say that has not already been said? The logical explanations of the movement, wheels, pivots…I felt myself relax and get excited about working on movements. One of the most effective videos I’ve seen of yours. I owe you a coffee when I come visit The Netherlands!

[@ChronoglideWatchmaking]

So glad to hear and we’ll have that coffee!!

[@pkay1111]

Just love your sharing and great teaching ❤

[@joetallon4968]

Excellent, excellent,excellent! And may I add, if you get frustrated just walk away for a little while. When you get back to it, it will make more sense and usually go right back together.

[@jamesherr6671]

I enjoyed this topic. I almost spit my coffee when you said "again... there is no shame in fishing" :)

[@vytis513]

Thank you, Kalle. For me, the hardest part right now is figuring out the screws, especially when they look the same but are of different lengths.

[@SlickWillyTFCF]

That's still an issue for me too sometimes, but have you seen Kalle's video about screws? It helped out a lot. Edit: it's called "The Most Common Mistake in Watch Making" and is the fourth video in the "Watchmaking Tutorials for Beginners" playlist.

[@MagWatchTime]

@@SlickWillyTFCFscrews for me to , I always place them with the part they come from bridge ect…

[@vytis513]

@SlickWillyTFCF Yes, I saw that. However, Kalle explains which screw secures what, whether it clamps or centers. I’m having issues with the length of the screws.

[@SlickWillyTFCF]

@@MagWatchTime that's how I've dealt with it as well. The screws go with the associated parts in the divided tray. If i have to ill wash them together in batches too. I'm not yet to the point where I can put them all together and be confident I have the right one when the time comes.

[@larryscott3982]

Omg. I just said the same thing about the screws! I should’ve read comments before hand

[@christianmotos]

Kalle is the best!

[@Dyzon300]

Many thanks Kalle. One of your best pedagogic videos !

[@stevenl7878]

Always learn from your videos and got a laugh about no shame in fishing.😂

[@ChoocherFronz]

Thanks Kalle. So grateful of the way you demystify and foster learning. You’re a fine fella!

[@hanslindgren7175]

You are really good teacher. I love the way You talk us through the process. 👍

[@nigelnorris1972]

It takes a genius to explain something in such simple terms. I'm really looking forward to the book when it's finished.

[@donnyboon2896]

As someone who will retire in the next few years and be an amateur watch maker, this video is invaluable! Thank you sir!

[@car5car5]

Thanks, very good explanation!

[@WatchWiseUS]

It was like a lightbulb going off in my head. I'll never look at a movement the same way again!

[@user-pp2oj6pd1q]

Thank you soo much for.it. Now it's truly child's play. My plan is to restore (by myself) two watches for my sons. Now I've got the logic! THANK YOU!!!

[@techman9894]

Brilliant, Your a great teacher. 😊

[@optimis9]

Best Watch movement explanation! Thank you very much.

[@bvillas]

Thanks for this video, it's hands down THE BEST content in watchmaking for beginners in such little time, there's a lot of hour long videos that's not that informative.

[@allanpullin7435]

You just turned on the light bulb in my brain. Thank you for making things so simple.

[@snafu673]

I would just like to say that you have taken the mystery and the complication out of the watch movements and Horology, I am hooked on this craft!

[@ChronoglideWatchmaking]

Likewise!

[@pgprentice]

Wow! Thank you! That was so helpful. Now I think I have enough info to have a go at fixing my Grandfathers old pocket watch. Cheers.

[@ChronoglideWatchmaking]

Glad it was helpful!

[@richardraby6266]

Brilliant; these are the sort of tutorials that are so helpful. I´m gearing up to start experimenting on a couple of old Seikos. Thank you sincerely.

[@peterelson2828]

Thank you it was very helpful and I'm grateful I discovered your channel

[@jimcollins9999]

Excellent my friend 👍

[@morgansinner]

I'm so happy I've discovered your channel. I love old American pocket watches, Hamilton , Illinois, Waltham, Elgin. I have around 50, some work, some don't. I bought them because I love how they look. I have been wanting to attempt to repair them myself , though I have zero experience at my 60 year of age. You've helped me understand the basic underlying concern of all the wheels..it makes sense now. I only have my left arm, so I'm certain it will take me longer. I'll need to figure "how to hold it, etc" problems as I come to them, but at least my initial hesitation has been relieved. Thank you for your valuable time and expertise. Russ

[@rotorcraft5485]

Hi Kalle! This is the most easy description of a basic mechanical movement. Simple and efective for beginners. Thak you

[@problemwithauthority]

Always start with what you know! Brilliantly stated.

Delightful and informative presentation. Now I want to take watches apart, it's really fascinating and addictive work, especiallyy as I like to make things work..

[@lucaconte9451]

You teach very Well, thanks!

[@startmeup775]

I'm guessing that it's always the same...LOL. Seriously though, thank you for making this video, an easily understood way to show the logic of so many watches, much appreciated!

[@edspengeman3407]

I’ve watched a thousand watch videos and have not seen an explanation like yours. It’s great. I’m going to check what else you have. THANK YOU B

[@tomhill4003]

You are a true teacher! This is the absolute best watch making video I have seen to date! I have procured some basic tools and have a small collection of derelict watch movements to work on. I really can't thank you enough for your great teaching 🤟

[@ChronoglideWatchmaking]

Wow, thank you!

[@speed_racer]

Thank you for taking the time to explain this, and making it "childs play". This is one of the best videos I have watched explaining the basics of how an automatic watch works.

[@Guillaume_Ulysse_Morya]

Hi Kalle, I really appreciate your approach. Always try to find the logic of how it works and how to applicate that theorical logic on practice. As Einstein said, "If you can easily explain your Theory to a 4 years old child, it means your undertand yourself what your tryin to explain". That's really the case with you. And you also push ourselve to act on the same way. Thank you.

[@waldoroeg9604]

Thanks Kalle. It’s the movement I’m learning on. I love your explanation and how it goes my thing is confidence. So when replacing the balance making the corrections for instance end shake or the depth of the palletts effecting the amplitude so one thing putting it together another thing regulating it so it keeps time 😊 I’m only 10 weeks in but still nervous!! Your video has helped me a lot.

Thank you so much for your support, merci!

[@StephanJPPL]

Very good introduction for beginner watchmakers. I think many found it very abstract when it is not. In basic it is not complicated but it there is no end how much you can expand this hobby or profession. That makes it so great. More short teasers for newcomers is excellent👍👍

@@ChronoglideWatchmaking Do you have a video with advice about cleaning a movement without the machines?

[@martinthomas5194]

My coffee sipping inspiration 😂

[@N7492]

Excellent video! That said, Kalle has something that we beginners lack. Decades of experience. How to pick up, place, and remove/install tiny screws without them flying off into unfindable oblivion on the floor. How to not damage the hairspring. Ask me how I know! Which screws go into which holes. Assembly order of the many parts. How to get the right amount and type of lubricant into which bearing. How to clean the parts... All this can be learned with careful persistence and patience.
