懐かしい、止まるようになって新しい時計を買った時に時計屋さんに置いて帰った。 まさかオーバーホールで動くようになるとは夢にも思わなかった。

[@macrorestorations1597]

Hmm, I used an online translator but unfortunately it desn't make much sense. I really don't know what you are saying. I hope you enjoyed the video 👍

[@manuelcaguiwa2352]

very nice case design.. love it

[@macrorestorations1597]

Thank you so much 😊

[@iggodos]

This watch is georgeos and the restoration was superb. I have a similar watch of the same year to restore. If restoration won't result like this, I don't want nothing.

[@macrorestorations1597]

Thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed it! It’s the polishing that makes a huge difference. I didn’t polish it too much, just a little. If you want to see it in detail, check out the full version of this video, it’s on my other channel, the link is in the description. Everything, including the polishing is shown in much more detail than it is shown in this short video. There is commentary, oiling guide, timegrapher, it’s with subtitles…

Thank you! 🙂

[@quanganh8325]

nice work !! you can attach sound or music would be better

[@macrorestorations1597]

Thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed it. There is a full version of this video, I made this one to keep it nice and short. The full version has commentary throughout. If you look at the description, you will see a link to the full version of the video on my other channel. There is a lot more in the full version, it’s a much longer video.

[@quanganh8325]

@@macrorestorations1597 i think 15 to 20 minutes is suitable. Hope you can make more videos bro 👌🏻

[@macrorestorations1597]

Yes, I will be making more videos. This channel is for the cut-down versions to keep the videos as short as possible. There will be full versions with commentary, music etc on my channel ‘Leo Vidal Watches’ and the same videos but much shorter on this channel so everyone can choose which version they want to watch. I only started making the short versions now so there is only one video on this channel so far but on the other channel there are more videos. All with commentary, music, subtitles etc.

Wonderful work, you are an awesome craftsman. Are you a professional or hobbyist?

[@macrorestorations1597]

Thank you! This is my hobby but I take it seriously 😉

[@gabrielbarnett4598]

Hi there, just wondering how it would cost to buy this model watch? Did you buy it to restore or did you already have it? Btw, great video! A bit of constructive criticism might be to record the sound of the watch and the tools on the watch etc, and maybe throw in some peaceful music. That's just what I would do, but you can do as you please! Thank you!

[@macrorestorations1597]

If remember correctly, it was around £60 on ebay. There is a full version of this video with commentary etc. on my other channel. Have a look at it if you want. The link is in the description.

[@mohamedkhalil4396]

رووووووووووووووووعة بس فين الصوت حتى تعم الفائدة كم سعر هذه الساعة لأنها عجبتني

[@macrorestorations1597]

Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it. I’m not selling it at this moment but I might do in the future. I know, a silent movie, it’s like going 100 years back, what was I thinking? I’ll be posting another video very soon and that will have music, I hope you will enjoy it 😉

[@ajjy1110]

Very nice watch not sure about the strap

[@macrorestorations1597]

It came with no strap and I had to get one. I prefer darker straps myself, the tan colour is not exactly to my taste either to be honest. The video is mainly about the disassembly and assembly. Straps are personal preference, some love it, some hate it 👍

[@pinchnsqueal]

I have a 7006-7007 very similar. I'd love for you to give mine the same treatment. Can you give me an estimate?

[@macrorestorations1597]

This is a hobby I do in my free time. I currently have quite a few watches I need to work on and cannot take another right now. I’ll let you know if my situation changes 👍

[@AhuCJ]

Which country are you from? 😊

[@macrorestorations1597]

I'm in the UK 🇬🇧 👍

[@pinchnsqueal]

@@macrorestorations1597 Thank you, please do. I'm in the US if it makes a difference

[@macrorestorations1597]

It makes no difference. It takes a few more days to ship but that’s about it. I will certainly let you know if I get the time to do yours 👍

my 1st watch is this same model but lost it

What a shame, it's a lovely watch

Are you selling this watch?

[@macrorestorations1597]

Not at this moment, I might do in a few months.

[@mytheen2129]

இப்படி வாட்ச் வேலை பாக்குறதுக்கு எவ்ளோ ஆகும்

[@macrorestorations1597]

I’m not sure I understand your question. It could be the online translator. How much does take what?

[@reco3406]

Seiko saate deri kordon olmaz ,saatcisin nasıl bilmezsin

[@macrorestorations1597]

I would have to try and locate the correct strap. It would be almost impossible to find one and considering the low value of the watch it is not worth spending money on

[@MohsinAli-kj1ux]

Hi, I have a swiss made westend watch of 1950, no date and day in watch, i want to sell this watch, any person like vintage watches, Thanks,

[@macrorestorations1597]

Sorry, no. Try Googling 'watch valuation', I'm sure you'll find plenty of places who would buy it or at least let you know the value.
