About

Hi, I'm Richard ! I used to fix tanks but now fix watches ... Richard Watchmaker - Pembroke Dock

Video Description

See the watches I make: https://www.majorwatches.co.uk/seawolf This time I restore a beautiful, and somewhat weirdly designed, Flagship watch by Longines. The watch has recently spent several years trapped behind a chest freezer but was eventually rediscovered by an old British Army colleague of mine, Sandy Carrick-Buchanan. Sandy received this impressively finished Longines Flagship from his Godfather who was a German gentleman called William (Wilhelm) Suckro. William had served as a Fallschirmjäger in World War Two, had been captured and ended up living his post war life in Scotland. The Longines Calibre 340 in this Flagship model has many design approaches which are different from other watches of the period and in these video I show each of these. Music is from the YouTube Audio Library ******************************************* Track: Home For The Holidays Artist: Tracktribe
