I also took over the Seiko watch from my father. It has a simple design and works for a long time without breakage ! I hope she will live a wonderful life together with a reborn beautiful watch! Your fans from 🇯🇵

[@隼人-w8s]

It has revived wonderfully. I am Japanese. Seiko is a great watch. I use a 1971 Vintage Grand Seiko. It is amazing that it can still be used without problems 😉👍

What a fabulous service to a great looking Seiko.. Love the face and the new strap looks great .. The owner will be proud to wear her grandfathers watch.. I would. Excellent job once again.. Kudos to you ..!!

Great music 🎶 at the 12 o'clock!!! I'm a big fan of Seiko watches. Your video was fantastic, thanks

[@richardperrettwatchmaker]

Yhank you so much Stephen! Richard

[@DavidHalfordsLane]

Beautiful work. I am sure the owner was extremely pleased with how it was repaired. Bravo.

[@johncollier608]

Lovely restoration, Richard. Glad you could rescue it for your client - I hope she was happy.

[@frankkelly2245]

Love how classic men’s watches easily make the transformation to modern watch for anyone.

[@richardperrettwatchmaker]

Hi Frank ... this is so true. A nice 34m Oyster Perpetual looks great on a lady too! Good to hear from you sir! Richard

[@johncarter6238]

Hi Sir good beautiful job. what I like more is that you have given this beautiful old classic watch a new life

[@wesleywalker1594]

Watching your videos makes me wish I possessed the surgeon like skill you employ in your restoration work . It's certainly is an art to what you do.

Lovely watch, nice work. Good luck the beautiful classy dial wasn’t damaged. Thank you for posting!

Thanks Angelino ... That's exacty what I though when I took of the crystal! Thanks for the feedback. Richard

There are many YT watch repair channels, but only one with its own chorus of jackdaws! Thanks Richard, keep up the great work!

[@richardperrettwatchmaker]

Hi David ... Haha! If I win the lottery it will be a chorus of Sulphur Crest Cockatoos and the sound of the Caribbean sea crashing on the sun kissed rocks! Nice one sir! Richard

[@shawnmac1938]

Class!! Beautiful restoration. Looks great on the pink strap. Who knew?!?! Been a fan for nearly a year now. Thanks for posting. Watched most all of your vids. You are a true master. Every portion of the process video documented in such an articulate way. Love it. Keep up your outstanding work. All the best! DETROIT,MI USA here

Nice work, Richard. It is indeed fortunate the lovely dial wasn't damaged! Svetlana should be appreciative, I should imagine.

Her voice was so alluring. It has an ability to haunt your will power. If the photos at the start of this episode were genuine; this is a woman you can't say no to. Now that I think about it, there aren't many girls who would say no to her either. Well executed as usual, Richard. Please stay safe during this ever-mutating scourge. Cheers!

Hi, Richard many many thanks. I have a Seiko watch. I have purchased that watch in the year 1976. Now I am kindly request to you for restoration my watch. Kindly give me fruitful cooperation. Thanks for ever.

[@ant.9940]

You did well to fix this watch. I'm tired of fixing expensive watches. Excellent work... as always.👍👍

Hi Richard, WHERE IS THE JAEGER ! I'm joking 🤣. I really want to see the results. You have done a nice job this time.

[@markbyrum4743]

I like that deployant clasp where the tail tucks in under the strap. Nice watch when it was done. Good job. Good vid. Do it now and do it right, Dahrlink! Good vid. Keep at it!

[@thegolgatha5337]

Richard ! You‘re the One ! Love your videos, which together with the vids of the „Nekkid Watchmaker“ and „Wristwatch Revival“ got me started for this magnificent passion. I always will be grateful for learning from you, and the Otero 844 caliber from my father’s Pallas watch, which is now running again (after nearly 40 years) as well, even if it is only a low budget watch. Thank you !!!

[@PTI940]

Hi

[@petercampbell3828]

Beautiful old watch. It looks like it was worn a lot in the past and now hopefully a lot in the future. The pink does suit it after all!

The "magic lever" automatic winding system was way ahead of its time in, what, the late 1950s when it came out? Very clever. Simple and reliable.

[@Daud76]

Nice restoration, Sir! I inherited a 1964 Omega Speedmaster Professional from my late father and my restoration went as far as toothpaste to polish out old scratches on the plexiglass, but since stopped as I learned there is an Omega logo in the centre of the plexiglass and I am afraid of polishing it away. So all I did to my Omega is make a new calfskin leather NATO strap.

[@richardperrettwatchmaker]

Hi Daud ... Nice work! You were wise not to delve into the chronograph movement. It's a beautiful piece of engineering but some experience is required before the getting stuck into it! Thanks for the feedback. Richard

[@Daud76]

@@richardperrettwatchmaker Thank you so much, Richard. Many people are asking me if my Omega has the 321 movement (I do have the tools to open and check), but I will not as I know gasket will break and I might encourage an old enemy to mechanicals.. dust! 🙈

Nice looking watch after all your work Richard. Also good that you won't have to worry about the "not taking prisoners" consequences! By the way, I'm thinking of ending all my future correspondence with, "I am missing you savagely!"

[@richardperrettwatchmaker]

So pleased you picked up on the subtleties here. 'Missing you savagely" is a top expression. I used to use it when returning to highly fortified locations in my former life. I would clamber from my land rover and say to the soldier in the Sanger behind the machine gun "Guardsman Spencer! Have you missed me savagely?!". It always made the boys smile. Use it with confidence! Richard
