Your professionalism, knowledge of craft, calm demeanor and movements, and attetion to detail are unparalled.. This is the 4th time I have returned to view this build and your other work. I do not even own a 7750. I am 11 years surviving a highly destructive 60mph mortorcycle /car t-bone crash. The injuries to body and brain were massive. I eventually accelerated towards vintage watch restoration a couple of years ago as the perfect vehicle to enforce improved micromotor function and control, extreme focus, and reduce unwelcome tremoring and misfires throughout my central nevous system. The chosen therapy method and "hobby" has well surpassed my personal expectations and I expected a great deal. The numerous repaired timepieces are a very nice fringe. Wont be the last time I view your gift.

Had the same type of accident in 2007, I learned about Nero plasticity and rewired my brain with simple repetitive actions!

Basically a very similar concept. One i was not aware of. I created my own rehabilitation program of enforced repetion, on every imaginable level. My journey began with first re-learning to move, think and exercise, My entire body was rigid and in protect mode. My chosen first cognitive, physical and connective therapy, was to wash the dishes. along with unending exercise, writing/typing/researching. It would take so very long to handle those dishes . I would stand or kneel one leg to relieve pressure on a chair, for hours tyring to finish what was previously a very simple , near thoughtless process. My numererous broken bones and tissue injuries were not seen or recognized for over a year. My neurosurgeon was afraid to share alll of the damage inflicted for fear I may give up. That is not my nature! The initial care was shameful, bordering on criminal. Thats another story. I refused to use the dishwasher to wash those dishes. It took over 6 years to normalize that previously simple task to the same proficiency as before. After 10 years of an intensely complex string of processes. Watch repair became my focus. In my circumstance, they have been the main key. I still restore watches , near daily. They are deeply enjoyed. I'm strongly involved in the watch communities.. I must consistently maintain, and handle micro processes, but do so with fairly surgical precision, now. I still have to force the concentration of hand and fingers, to the mind. I can actually feel my brain controlling those functions. The process is forced, not completely natural. Never will be again. I'm good with that. That takes incredible will, considering the amount of permanent damage. There are many ways to skin a cat, petepenn1. I appreciate you sharing your recommendation. Not all want to or can repair watches. Many love very specific challenges. Perhaps myself and others may gain further knowledge and cognitive control of functions as a result of your suggestion of Nero plasticity. These remarkable Watch Repair Channel videos will forever reach, inspire and help others in unexpected ways.

@@robertagodsil7951 Too True. WoW! I have not used a dishwasher since my accident either , it is a part of my therapy also. i misspelled Nural Plasticity ,which was considered Voo-doo science in 2007. It is almost mainstream today. Your routine is very similar and would also rewire the brain and stimulate new muscle movements. Made my first Opal ring in 1973 and a year later was learning from a master in Bombay, India. I started collecting gems to mount and antiques to cherish. Gem trading became the means to see the World and meet many masters of their trades. I have the Highest Respect for watch makers and repairers. Most jewelers skills are way below a watch maker! My hat is off to you for your determination and fortitude! After losing two wives with no children, at 58 yrs I found my old friend and present Love who blessed me with the baby you see in the thumb nail photo. Sandi and our baby JasmineJade are the blessings + Major reason for my recovery of Life! She is 7 now and growing up way too fast for me! I am putting the reins on and taking every day with them on our tree farm in Canada. Stay Blessed Roberta!

Well, Sir, I have never seen this done before and all I can say is that I raise my hat to you in salutation for your skills and courage to tackle something as complex as this in such small dimensions. Your fluency in indicating the parts and your gentleness and dexterity of your hands indicate that you are a man of great experience. I am just thinking that many nations and many people are the proud owners of what they buy, but pride does not exist in what we buy but in the skills we own. It is what makes an individual in fact more than that, the basics of a whole civilized nation which has a lot to learn by watching the harmony that is created by a man like you is a watch. There is much more than a watch in that case, there is the principles that make a modern nation. Congratulations.

It's unbelievable how intricate these mechanical watch movements can be and watching someone like you tear these down piece by piece and reassemble them is just hypnotizing. Great job on this repair. I'm sure the owner was quite pleased, even though he had to buy a few more parts than he'd hoped.

​@ekim andersom To the people that say "it only takes you x hours it shouldn't cost that much" in any field I say "Do it yourself, see how many hours it takes you to learn how to do it and how many hours it takes you to actually do it once you know how, then get back to me about how much it costs, even if you count those hours as paid at minimum wage.". On top of that not many people fix these things which makes the specialists rare, these specialists have few clients so to survive they must charge high prices or it's not worth their time and might as well find another job. No matter what field you work in, if you are skilled, once you considered how much time you invested in acquiring the skills, the nature of the job (whichever job that is) and once you get acquainted with the complications you might encounter in it I'm pretty sure you also wouldn't want to charge minimum wage like any unskilled laborer.

I don't have any Breitlings and would not want one. Since I began I have stuck to the swiss and german watches. I'm 72 now and my parents bought me an omega de ville which I wore to summer camp. When I got a real job, I just had to have a Patek golden ellipse which I picked up in Montreal for 4,500$ really cheap for a patek even then... but I digress. Thanks for your tutoring and be happy.

I really have to give credit where credit is due. I looked at the task at hand and see that it was a difficult task based on the condition of the watch. And with those magic fingers of yours and your knowledge you transformed that watch. I still say a BIG THUMBS to you.

Incredible video. I find it interesting that you must use a torque wrench to tighten the head gasket on a Chevy 357 engine but there are no torque indicating tools required for the screws on these amazingly precise and delicate timepieces?

I just bought Breitling Navitimer A13022 today for £2500 unscrewed the cover to make sure its genuine and I can say it is for sure. I am watching what you doing with your hands and fingers. That is amazing and very professional job. I am handy man but will never touch Breitling lol. Only little problem that my watch are faster 5 seconds in 12 hours. Hopefully I will sort it:-)

Before I married my wife, her dad would repair her car. He'd almost always end up with a ziploc bag full of miscellaneous nuts and bolts and bits of kit. She had a theory that if she let him work on it long enough, she'd end up with enough baggies of parts to build herself another car. :D

First of all, the level of craftsmanship exhibited here is a wonder to behold. Some questions: how many years does it take to achieve this level as a craftsman? Beyond knowing to to handle the parts, repair them, remove rust, etc. How long does it take just to remember what all those tiny things do and where they go? Thanks for sharing this with us. Just a reminder of how amazing old world craftsmanship can be -- people who devote entire lives to just getting it right.

Thank you so much for this video. I appreciate your precision in the handling of the mechanism, something very British on the other hand. That partly explains why UK it's a great country. It has a very meticulous professionals. On the other hand, even though my understanding of the english is not very good I have to thank you for your good pronunciation which has allowed me to understand all your explanations without problem, which is not always the cae.
