They will last very long time, especially if they are serviced from time to time. Even if they are not serviced you can still replace worn out parts if you can get hold of them or repair what needs repairing. I have done what I think is a better video than the one you’ve seen where I do some work on a 53yo Seiko that now runs really well: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fZKWf6RvncRlibM I’m glad you enjoyed the video! 👍

Nice, Leo! I just got an old watch last night with a similar shape and 19mm lugs, I did think for a second, "What am I gonna do with this?" A straight strap with this type of case shape gives it a unique look, so now I have an idea of what it'll look like cleaned up and strapped. Thanks!

Thank you for this informative video. Brings back many good memories when I was in my teens working at my Uncle’s watch repair shop in the early 80s. I did not pursuit this career due to playing sports and weight training in high school. My hands needed to be almost like a surgeon hands to deal with the micro gears and the mechanism. I do my own battery watch replacement and still have my vintage Hamilton watch that I fixed on my own at my Uncle’s shop 😁

This makes me want to get my grandfather's restored like this. Mine is a slightly different case, but the same movement and dial, and it stopped ticking recently, but I wore it with joy for months and it ran very accurately. It's really a beautiful watch and it's what expanded my attention from just pocketwatches to the beauty of a good mechanical wristwatch!

From the comments I have been receiving, I have realised that there are many people who watch my videos have very little understanding how watches work but they enjoy watching watch repair videos. I used to think it only would be hobbyists who want to learn something new or look at the movement because they are working on the same one or a similar one etc. The next video I’m going to release, it’s probably going to be in March, not too long, I do explain everything in a lot more detail. It’s not going to be perfect but it’s going to be much better than what you’ve just seen, I’d like to think anyway. It’s going to get better over time as I now realise I can make it more pleasurable for others who just like to watch the work. I hope you will enjoy it, do let me know after you’ve seen it 👍

Keenly watched your technique re cleaning the dial, recently had come in a very abused Sekonda branded Poljot Alarm, sourced a new set of hands from my fav chap on ebay, still trying to find the unique to case crystal and I may well pinch the crystal off of my Poljot Olympic 80 as the alarm is worth ten times what the 80 is worth but the dial is very grimy and I know I have one shot to get it right too. I remember the first dial clean I did, a 1980's Vostok 090 Amphibia... hit it with 99% isopropyl alchohol as the dial seemed to be coated with this grease film... how green I was and looked on in horror as every painted finish just dissolved before my eyes sterilising the dial completely, still got it but have hidden my shame under a thick steel grille bezel hehehe So folks never use any solvent on your dial :P

A perfect combo to be able to put something like this together. Way more advanced than the Chinese timegrahper you normally see in KZbin videos. I’m going to have to get my head around this software first but I will be showing some basics in the next video. It will be published probably in 2/3 weeks.

Crystal clear video. I’ve only dipped my toe into watch repair. Of the hours of videos I’ve have viewed, never have I seen such a liberal application of lubrication. Seems like some would get into unintended areas? It’s just a comparison observation.
@MacroTime28800
@MacroTime28800 Жыл бұрын
Glad to hear you enjoyed the clarity! Are you comparing the lubrication quantity to videos that were also done under the same/similar magnification? At times you see 7mm across your screen in my videos and a small amount of oil/grease can indeed look like a lot but in reality, it can be zero point something of one mm. If I zoomed out and you were able to see the whole movement rather than a specific area, it wouldn’t look like much at all.

Great job Leo! As someone that has bent my share of seconds hands using that type of crystal puller with too much force, I have a tip you may want to try. After I tighten down the crystal puller, I go under each tooth of the puller with a screw driver (usually my green handle one.. 200?) and gently push downward a little at a time. It allows you to slowly work the crystal up/off while it's still in the puller, without the force bending the hand. Try testing it on a crystal you know will come off to get your technique down. Cheers
@MacroTime28800
@MacroTime28800 2 жыл бұрын
Why didn’t I think of that? It would have saved me the time and effort straightening the seconds hand. I was lucky it was the seconds hand. The others are much wider and I don’t think I would have been able to make them look perfect. But they are shorter so there is less chance damaging them. I’ll certainly follow your advice if I face this issue again. I never got to the bottom of it why it was stuck. It’s as if it was glued but when I took the crystal off it was fine and I couldn’t see any glue marks or anything that would tell me why it was stuck. When I put it all back together I tested it and took the movement out with no issues so I don’t know what the problem was. Thank you for the tip! Cheers Leo

@@MacroTime28800 I use the old method, drop the oil with normal oiler then make the drop flows in with inserter tool which I created by modify a sewing needle to have the tip very thin and fine. The circle of oil gets bigger little by little and I have to repeat the process - drop and push - 3 to 4 times to get the right amount of oil. It's easy to do, takes more time but in the end the same result. Although automatic oiler is not the top priority among tools that I want to have, I may consider getting one in the future.

Great video Leo, spiced by some of your humorous comments here and there. I had been a watch repair hobbyist for the past 5 years after I retired. From the practical point , I would say that to repair specific areas here and there yes, particularly for me, many spares can be purchased from Taobao . However, to do a complete servicing for this 7006A , perhaps not. You might as well purchased a NH35 or even 7009 , 7s26 for the watch. So much work involved, and all the different oil types . Just my thoughts. For an original ETA or 7750 , I will do it. In fact, I am in the process the complete re-assembly of a 7750 movement once clean up all the parts and the new spares need arrived.

Nice to hear you enjoyed it! I checked out Taobao but I must say I don’t understand a word. I looked whether there is a selection for languages but I couldn’t see it. I know, it doesn’t make any sense to service/repair watches at this value but I do it for the videos, something other people can follow if they are working on the same or a similar movement 👍
