Welcome to the channel which shares quality motorcycle restoration tips and tricks.
In todays video I go in search of the next restoration project. I don't want to do the same thing again as I get bored easily. Here I restore not 1 but 2 Smiths 8 day clocks. Enjoy the restoration journey with me..

Wondering how many TFT displays on modern motorcycles will be still working in 65 years time. Mind you, by then we’ll probably be able to just print a new one. Lovely detailed work…. thanks for posting.

I wait and I wait…😊 Amazing!

Sorry!

[@TimH123]

@@MyRestoration1Not at all…worth the wait. Amazed at the breadth of your knowledge: how did you come to learn about horology?

[@MyRestoration1]

@@TimH123 I’ve been doing it as a hobby for some years now. It’s a best small workshop you can enjoy in the house!

Thank you Cemal 👍

Absolutely astounding!

[@daveco1270]

The breadth of your knowledge is really frickin' impressive. Is that your motorcycle or are you fixing it for a friend or client?

[@MyRestoration1]

Thanks Dave. It’s for my big investment in the AJS..which I can’t get to yet so I’m sorting out the smaller bits like the clock when I can.

[@volvogt21]

Is there anything you can't do? Fantastic to watch

[@MyRestoration1]

Many many things…I can’t do but thank you 🙏

I recently purchased a Matchless Model X. It has an inoperative Smiths M2 clock. The winder mechanism appears broken and is on the back side of the clock. Your video tells me that I should have an M3 clock with the winder on the side at about the 4:00 0'clock position. Can you be of any assistance? Trade?

[@MyRestoration1]

Hello Mark, yes this clock is a bit harder to find unfortunately I only have the fatter body one. If you want me to look at it for you you can find my contact details on about me. Send some pics in your email. Cheers to Friday
