About

This channel is all about bringing old watches back to life—one project at a time. Whether it’s a vintage piece from the bargain bin or a watch that hasn’t ticked in decades, every timepiece gets a shot at redemption here. I’m a hobbyist watchmaker learning as I go, sharing the full process along the way. From teardown and troubleshooting to casework and reassembly, I try to show it all—successes, mistakes, and the unexpected problems that come with working on old mechanical watches. If you're into the technical side of watch repair, enjoy seeing how things work, or just appreciate the art of putting something broken back together, you’ll feel right at home. My goal is to make each video as informative as it is satisfying—sharing tools, techniques, and a few tricks that don’t always make it into other videos. Whether you’re learning the craft or just enjoy the journey, I’m glad you’re here.

Video Description

In this video, we dive into the story of a stunning single-owner watch that’s been cherished for an incredible 53 years—but it came to us with a huge problem. Despite its fascinating history, this watch had suffered from very poor repair work in the recent past, leaving it in rough shape mechanically. Join us as we take on the challenge of a major repair to restore its functionality and correct multiple small issues left behind by previous quick fixes. Watch as we bring this classic timepiece back to life, honoring its legacy and ensuring it runs smoothly for years to come!
