Today we have a beautiful old triple calendar Orator on the bench. It seemed like a bit of a bargain when I bought it on eBay, but there might be something hiding under the surface here...
Join me for a lot of rust removal and other repairs as we try to get this watch in running condition.
There will be the usual banter and tangents and we'll get very acquainted with the two words uh and oh in that order!

I'm a child of the 60s and I've come to love men's dress watches from that decade. I always preferred the 70s designs that were more flash and glitzy but now I'm older, I'm appreciating the understated elegance and simplicity of 1960s wristwatches. Interestingly I'm not lured by the expensive brands. I much prefer the lesser brands that the working man wore. To me they tell more of a story.

Is the hairspring different quality too? I've looked online a lot but unfortunately no info. Thank you in advance, love the channel :)

@nicklapietra3890 2 года назад

Great video. It is nice to know the rust can be overcome in some cases. I am lucky enough to have a triple date moon phase chronometer with the Valjoux 88 movement. It was not working when I got it. It took a long time to find someone to service/fix it but I finalky did and it runs great now. A pain to set so I try and make sure I wind it everyday even if I am not wearing it that day. It was my Grand Father's watch so that makes it all the more special. Thanks again.

BTW - Congratulations on that BE adjustment. Thanks again!!!
