Hey folks, Peter here! I am trying to get in front of a camera more and learn lots of fun stuff along the way, ranging from watch repairs to toys to DIY work! If you enjoy the videos, please make sure to subscribe!
@alanssnack1192 suppose that is an option as well! I'm not putting anything rusty in my cleaner used for watch parts, though. Also, you need to make sure to use the right chemical for that. It is an option though!
@JoeySavage hey no problems there! I've never had an issue cooking my friends angus beef burgers and chicken on the grill, and I toss my veggie burgers on right next to them!
Power steering fluid is cheaper but you have to leave them for a week or two. I also use vinegar to soak rusty stuff. Malasis is good too. All the above have been used to clean motorbike fuel tanks.
@@karltaylor7378 interesting! I haven't tried power steering fluid or molasses, but I have definitely tried vinegar before! I was hoping to try this stuff out to see if maybe it'd work nice on watch parts. That test is next! Thanks for watching!
I guess so far no issues here, but I just use it for odd things around the house! The switch leaves a lot to be desired, you can't get in there without drilling the rivets out I believe, which is a shame. Oh well, I'll let it ride and then I can take those parts and use them on a MagLite! Haha. Thanks for watching!
I vaguely remember there being a part in the final confrontation when I played the Switch version years back. When the robot appears, the puppet tries to scream it away and then panics when the robot's unaffected. I may be remembering wrong, but I'm pretty sure that was in the Switch version, but not in the PC one...
@TRSCP looking at the ingredients, it actually does contain dried pineapple, and also coconut oil which if impure would also give off flavor. Some good old piña colada essence
@studiorobo oh! Well I can tell you the coconut oil was fine. I must have missed seeing pineapple in the ingredients as I was looking at the box. That could be it though! Again, not bad, just a wild experience.
Gas or vapor from the battery will attack anything containing copper and will cause nickel to peel. I bet the brown date wheel had a special blend of copper plating. Many cd players -especially after the miniature surface mount pcbs came along, have complete trace rot. Non fixable because you can't easily bridge the gaps with wire. I wouldn't fret the tritium. Just wet it to avoid airborne particles.
Yeah that circuit DEFINITELY is gone. I wish I new more about electronics/wiring/circuitry! Very cool stuff, but yeah can't save everything. Thanks for watching!
Hello David! I do indeed still have these bases but they're nothing I want to sell right now. You can go check out itzbases.com to see what's all available! Tudor is another good place for bases, so make sure to check them out too. Best of luck!
Probably deformed stator? Common problem with the Rondas. Anyway, your sticktoitiveness and patience was infectious. When I put my movements on the holder I need to display a similar attitude toward watchmaking. Thanks for the inspiration and video.
So, everything was working as intended, I switched out the metal plate around the stator and it ran the proper way! Watch is back together and functioning as intended. Glad you could find some inspiration from this and hopefully you can keep progressing in your work!
I'm a big fan of the Impossible Burgers!! Beyond Beef makes some great stuff too. I just generally like exploring what's all out there. Thanks for watching!
00:16 please pause and look at the box. How many veggie discs would you say are in the box? I would say 4 unless I looked much closer in the lower left hand corner. Very deceptive packaging. Pretting sure it's their way of dealing with shrinkflation.
Eres muy pero muy malo soldando......... primero limpia tu soldador y aprende a utilizar soldadura de estaño.Una vergüenza mostrar ese trabajo.No comentas.
You can also use a small digital multi-meter to do a continuity test on that coil - just touch probes to both ends with the meter set on continuity if it beeps its good if no beep its bad.
You know, I do have a multimeter, I should really learn how to use it a little more one of these days. I'll have to check into that sometime, thanks for the tip!
Thanks for doing this! Looks more robust and the clasp is def smaller in length than the bracelet that came on my Pogue (40mm L). I will probably order one. I have an Uncle on another watch and it's great.
Hi… you just helped me fix my Sandy P650 that had a leaking battery and a bad coil. With your guidance I ordered a brand new movement for about $30. Swapped over the battery contact the insulator, the coil and the circuit board. And Presto and irreplaceable 650 that I have had since the 90s is working again. I know most people don’t work on quartz movements. but if you look one of these up, you will see that they are definitely worth working on! But it’s working perfectly and your video definitely gave me some guidance in how to fix it. I even have a spare movement now because I ordered two. In case I ever have another issue. thanks again and cheers!!!!
Hey, I'm glad it helped! Some quarts movements you're able to swap around components and they generally will work again. Of course, the gear train might be worn but there again, it can be swapped around. Good job getting that working, and more time to enjoy the watch. Thanks for watching!
Great video. I just got a Pogue. It has an H link marked Seiko in the clasp but I am not sure if it is original. Anyway, its a big "jangly" because the folding clasp is very long and the links hit it when moved around. How is this Uncle, solid feeling or jangly too? Looks like the folder is shorter on the Uncle.
If I get the chance, I should do a short video on it! I don't mind it, but I'm also not after big heavy chunky links. As long as they're smooth on the back so it's not ripping hairs in all the folds I'm good! I can measure the folded piece too if that helps?
Neat video. Can’t wait for the next one to see the clean up and restoration. BTW have a question in your microscope. What is Brand and model number, please?
Just watched your video, fantastic.Very good info and look into the Ronda 715 movement. Thanks! If I may what is the model number and brand of your microscope? Maybe a good tool to purchase, specifically if by using the loop you have to get to close to the movement to do anything with it.
It would have been nice to see a record playing at the end just to see that it works. You do not need to let us hear it, just play it for yourself and we'll buy it! I want to see that ground working as well.
Yeah, that's a fair point. Couldn't play it in a video because of copyright stuff and all that. I can assure you they work flawlessly now though, if that's any consolation! Thanks for watching!
gap between the board & trucks is cause those are china trucks, which surprises me cause you said they have decent weight to them, might have to give them a try, but maybe the hardware just wasn't threading threw correctly, tends to happen Great video though, keep it up.
Yeah, I find with smaller screws and whatnot, tolerances can be a little iffy. Luckily nothing too bad and I don't think I really notice a difference? I don't know, works for me! Thanks for watching!
Your video has helped me so much I bought this exact same watch in 2005 after I finished college and a battery corroded in it. Going to order a movement a try to install it. I was thinking while watching about pulp fiction Christopher Walken watch scene as you where saying where is all this hair coming from. My messed up sense of humor 😂😜
