Marshall restores another vintage watch, this time a Rotary watch that belonged to Jim Hume, a journalist in Canada for over 70 years. He was 98 when he passed away, leaving behind a long career in journalism as well as this watch. His family wanted to have it restored to working condition as it has stopped running and has a weird issue with the hands.
Join Marshall as he dives into this restoration and learns a few new things!

Imagine being Jim Hume having lived through WW2 experienced the invention of the vinyl record into magnetic tapes into compact disks into fully digital streaming media. Imagine having halls full of shelves replaced by rooms full of equipment with magnetic tape storage into being able to store billions of pages of written text into a device the size and thickness of a fingernail, the invention and spread of home phone lines into cellphones into smartphones and a furniture size tube driver radio receiver turned even bigger furniture television turned color, turned from tiny CRT to big CRT to projection to LCD to plasma and now flexible OLEDs as thin as cardboard... It is astounding what humanity achieved within about 150 years from first steps in electronic and simple circuitry into the first semiconductor transistors making tubes obsolete into logical clusters of millions of those with each being only a few hundreds of atoms in size...

@Watchdoc65 Год назад

That’s sage advice when it comes to attempting to clean a dial; best just to leave alone as very often can be made worse in a cleaning attempt. One issue I have had with that Speidel band is the multi fit lug width type is spring loaded and it causes a lot of damage to the inside of the lugs! I have actually ground the lug ends and polished the ends so there’s no spring tension pressing against the lugs. This is something customers have not taken issue with and preserves the case itself. Thanks for sharing!
