This time I want to show you how a mechanical watch works. In my restoration videos I´m assuming this as known but do you really know how it works?
I hope you liked this video, if so, like, comment and subscribe ;)

@ElijsDima

This is a *very* good explainer, because you show not only the assembly but also what effect each component practically has. Imo the *best* "how a watch works" video out there. A followup with self-winding and chrono modules would ofc be great; though I appreciate that those might be more difficult to demonstrate. Random thought... It would be nice to have a movement like this (whether by ETA or a custom modification) where the back plates were transparent (e.g. milled sapphire); as is they cover up so much of the watch mechanisms...

Excellent video showing the precision machining required to keep the delicate interconnected parts in perfect sync and harmony . A horological work of art that amazes with its reliability and beauty. RDR , myself and other viewers would like to hear you rank watch brands from best to worst in terms of actual quality . The snobbery that is an unfortunate part of the luxury watch world makes an impartial appraisal difficult for investment and enjoyment.
