I really like the view that shows the 3D aspect of the movement. Most videos are directly above the work, making it look flat. Seeing the layers is super fresh and super nice!

Fantastic! About the coming up intro, as far as I am concerned, I will watch everything you upload anyway, so it won't make that big of a difference, to me at least. Brilliant result, the 0168 isn't the most atractive Genève out there but this particular one, dial and bracelet, is really fresh. Good job, Mat!

Appreciated Marvin, I was juiced over the dial, chocolate goodness in all it's glory, hidden behind that damaged crystal.

Hey Matt, great job once again. I kinda dig that 18 sec intro, the backing music was super fresh too; if it's easy to do then I vote keep doing it. If it's so cold where you are you can join me here in sunny Joburg, a balmy 31C during the day, jump in the pool when it gets a touch hot and beer in the fridge for days. Getting tools and spares is a bitch though, a bunch of us club together for a monthly buy from Cousins!

Enjoyed the video very much, especially the fact that you verbally narrate what you're doing and why. I'm not very fond of the videos of watch makers that just put text on the screen and don't say a word. It's not very professional in my opinion. Thank you and keep up the good work.

Thanks Matt. For reference the green stuff from the supermarket is approximately 300 grit. As to shorts and intros, they are the same for me, a total pain in the arse, I for one wouldn’t like them spamming my RU-vid feed. I hope, as you said, watchmakers tool’s will come back down in price on eBay et al, it has become ridiculous now.

haha thanks Ted. I never finalise the regulation until at least 24 hours later as I want time for the oils to settle etc. This was just straight from the bench. You usually find the amplitude even increases as well a little once the oils have settled which it did also with this Omega. 💪

Another great video! Super sweet! Just wondered...does every movement have the original ETA code on it? I just wondering how you know, for example, if ordering a new main spring, which spring to order?
@HorologyBiology
@HorologyBiology Год назад
Thanks :) Regarding that most movement will have a ref number on them. You can then search info on that movement to find out what the right spring is. In most cases the spring will be advertised for sale as for that cal. If you cannot find one like that then the other way is to search the info on what the measurements are of the spring then use a mainspring seller site where they sell via different sizes etc. So I basically just order the right length. eg 12 x 0.12 x 330 👍
