How to polish your vintage watches - Part 1 Introduction 

Thank you from Istanbul.

That Is something I want to know even at this late stage of life thank you Kalle😃

Great stuff. I rarely have my vintage watches restored… don’t know anyone to do it correctly and I really don’t mind the patina… thank you Kalle for posting!

Excellent content ❤️

Just a subject I got more and more involved in when "servicing" a watch. Looking forward to the next one. Enjoy your Eastern days 🥚🥚🥚

Thanks i am looking forward to the next installment.

Can,t wait to see your next video Its a realy interesting topic. Its a small ballans between destroying and restoring Greetz Gertjan also from the Netherlands😊

I’m sitting on the edge of my couch 😁

Great, looking forward to the next video. Thanks Kalle

Thanks Kalle, you're a star.

Really cool, Kalle. I love your videos! 🎉🎂🕐🕰🍸🍸

Thank You! I have been eagerly awaiting this series.

WOW!! PROFFESIONAL POLISHING JUST MADE SENCE!! thank you for the lesson. I can see the difference in my collection. and all the watches that have been "miss-polished" are going in the trash!

interesting topic, thank you for sharing your wisdom 👍👍

Thank You Kalle, I have been looking forward to this series very much

I can't wait to see the next videos! thank you for sharing this, Mr. Slaap

Been doing this for 30 years. Can't wait to learn something new!

Thanks Kalle. I look forward to more polishing content.

Enjoyable video. And I have a question for the viewers here. A few years ago I watched a three part series on RU-vid on watch case polishing (at least I think it was 3. It may have been 2). I think each video was 20-30 minutes and I think it was hosted by a watchmaking school in Switzerland. The presenter beat up a new watch case with a hammer and then polished it clean. Does anyone know who hosted those videos? I can't find them anymore. I remember the presenter had a very calm and soothing voice.

Best way to polish vintage watch without ruining it: "The Visa Polishing" - I send it to Kalle along with my CC number ;-) Seriously, as a hobbyist there are certain watches I will never work on, including my dad's Omega that I inherited. If I messed it up I couldn't forgive myself. Most watches, though, are fair game, so thanks for showing us how this works!

Your passion is alluring and your knowledge is vast, I want tot watch more.

Hi Kalle, Dave from Phoenix Arizona, a world away. :) I really appreciate your attention to detail, amazing. I love the training. Thank you very much.

I love you man!

Triple aaa rated (as always authentic)

Thanks Kalle! Can’t wait for the next episode! 😊

So Interesting. Looking forward to the next instalment. As a home hobbyist using a 5' x 3' table, which also holds my computer, the facility to polish and repair cases is not an option I could do. However, these videos will give a good insight and are of great benefit to the knowledge needed to restore watches. Thank you Kalle.

Once again it’s a great video. Hope you cover the different types of wheels.

Great info, thanks for the excellent content! Cheers!

Hello mate after watching your videos for some time I trust your opinion. How would you suggest one find a coach for this locally? What profession is closest perhaps. I am quite isolated in Perth Australia but I believe I could do this at a professional level. I would like to start properly with a certified pro

kalee great explaining as always i want to came with n this treinings you have 2 week sessions so can samone contact me or whear can i contact you thnxs in advance ♥️♥️♥️

Depending on the material of the watch case, they have to be treated differently. Most of the time it's not worth to polish gold filled or plated cases. Adding texture like a sunburst treatment is difficult to do with out correct machines.
