This was awesome to see and makes me think about when I had my Great-grandfather's pocket watch fully serviced a few years ago. It was in rough shape and not working and it ended up costing more than the value of the watch itself, but it was worth it to know it might keep running for another 70 years. My Grandmother gave it to him as a gift when she got her first paycheck after turning 18 and he kept it in his front pocket until the day he died. It had the same level of wear and tear as this watch and I would have never considered getting it replated and covering up that history, just like you were saying. Thanks again for sharing this!

I just pulled my great-grandfathers pocket watch out of my safe and found out more about it. It's a Hamilton 912 made in 1933. It's Nickel with a gold chain and a knife fob. Still works. Had this watch for a few decades after my grandmother gave it to me but never thought much about it until I started watching your videos. It's not railroad quality nor is it very valuable, which isn't a big deal to me. Makes me want to start wearing waistcoats so I can wear it all the time. Thank you!

This is amazing- I bought a couple of early 1900s elgin pocket watches movements that are in remarkable shape. I bought the pocket wat movements because of your advice on your videos, and then I learned about how there are different sized pocket watches, and the ones I bought were size 0 LOL. So they aren't alexactly larger and easier to work on, but they are unique and I love them and have enjoyed troubleshooting the issues like a broken pallet fork jewel! Thanks for making the amazing videos and for getting me into a new hobby and obsession!

Just bought a pretty vintage (80-90s) watch while thrifting and thanks to ur vids I felt confident enough to pop off the back and I’ve ordered a replacement battery, it’s in such great quality so I think it’ll be able to run after I replace the battery :D
@ammoalamo6485
@ammoalamo6485 2 года назад
The Goodwill and other thrift stores are chock full of discarded quartz watches. They have no dollar value, and can hardly even be given away in today's smartphone and smartwatch culture, but if the style and condition meets with the seeker's approval they can be worth their small price plus the cost of a battery. Just remember that most of them can be replaced with brand new similar models - including ten year battery - for $9.95 to $39.95 at discount big box stores. If changing batteries is desired, I suggest looking at the case back to find the battery number, then ordering six or ten of them from Amazon for less than the the price of one at a retail store. They also sell several batteries of six or seven different types all on one card, very cheap. Those old case backs are friction fit, and have one small slightly raised spot where they are supposed to be levered free by a semi-sharp tool. Cover the back with a couple of layers of painters tape to prevent scratches - I guarantee for beginners the tool will slip and scratch the back if not protected. Don't use a knife - the blade is too sharp and the metal too brittle.

@@ammoalamo6485 I bought a guess chrono from ebay for about $10. It needed a new battery. I had taken an Omega pocket watch, cased in the USA by Elgin, in rolled gold, to a Horologist. He replaced the spring and serviced the watch. I asked him if he could get the pressed back off the guess watch. No problem he said, I will use a guillotine. Well he tried but could not get it off. I had tried other street vendors who also could not open it. So I took the watch home, got a thin screwdriver, and a light hammer, and tapped away. Its was the hardest back I had ever removed. I put the new battery in and put the watch on the cover press. There was no way it would go back on. I put some small cuts in the rim, but retaining its seal edge, and press fitted it, but it would not fully seat. I got a cloth and the light hammer and gave it a sharp tap. It seated. If a Horologist could not get it open, this old motor mechanic managed it.

Got a similar pocket watch Elgin 303 grade 7 jewels non-working off Ebay as my first foray into this hobby. I followed along the video to take it apart and put it back together. (don't have the cleaning stuff) At 16:04 gave it a test wind as well and the movement moved! YAY!! Then realized made the same mistake with the keyless and had to take it apart. The 303 (??) has a different keyless works. On the face there is a lever on the side for that curly spring. The pieces at the 18:00 mark was not present. This was really fun!!

Fun fact, the reason soldiers started wearing watches upside down, that is the watch face on the same side of the arm as the palm of your hand was because as they were holding their rifle waiting to fire their weapon at an exact planned time, as they were holding their rifle in the firing position the watch face would be facing them so they could the exact minute or second to fire. Especially in WWII when they had center second hands.

I use an old trick to clean porcelain/enamel dials by suspending the dial over a small container of distilled/processed water (paper clip on a peg wood stick). Drop in a common Polydent denture cleanse tablet and let sit overnight. You will be wonderfully surprised to see how clean and bright the dial has become! Hope this helps.

I have that model, passed down through generations, and it has quite the story. It originated from my great, great grandfather born in the mid 1800's. He came to Pennsylvania where Kansas marshals tracked him down for cattle rustling. They extradited him back to Kansas, where he was acquitted of the charges. His initials are engraved on the back of the watch. It runs and keeps good time, but I will likely have it serviced in the coming years.

"the more of these pivots it covers the more you have to get lined up." Tell me about it! I overhauled a cheap wind up alarm clock where it was a plate movement and ALL the arbors, including the alarm clapper and spring arbor and the balance staff, had to be pretty much lined up at once. At least the balance had it's own bearings for endshake and I could do that last. And I did it all with nail clippers, tweezers and an eyeglass screwdriver. It worked better than when I started though 😁 fixed it running 5+ minutes per day fast.

Thanks Marshall for your video's. My dad gave me a 14ct gold pocket watch which belonged to his great grandfather. My dad had it since 1962 after his dad passed and was given to him. I had the watch valued and serviced at Wallace Bishop (an Australian jewellery store). It needed the same work as you have done for your Patreon also with a new main spring at a cost of $1,200au. My great great grandfather worked for Citizens Life Assurance Company Ltd and the watch is engraved with this, his name and 'excellence in field service' 'Queensland Branch'....1896........an employee appreciation reward I guess. My dad told me travelling back then was with horse and cart and kids would chase my great great grandfather asking for a ride!! Citizens Life Assurance Company Ltd of 1896 is now MLC Limited (Mutual Life Citizens) insurance company still going in Australia today..

Fascinating! I have the patience to watch the video, but could never have it to actually work on it. I oil paint, and that's about as far as it goes.

The measuring tool that you called a micrometer is not a micrometer it’s actually an indicator. Love your content

I have a similar watch! I got it from a thrift store for $35 and it’s being fixed now! It’s from 1911 (also Elgin) Atleast I think so based on my research. It kinda ran on and off so it really needed a servicing.

Marshall, thanks for making these. You've inspired me to join you in this hobby. I'd love to see your setup. Any chance you could show everyone what your setup looks like?

my grandfather left one of those to me its beautifully worn ive been thinking about having some maintenance done to it. The way he talked this watch was worth more than a grand but i doubt it is.

My grandpa gave me his. Probably about a 1915 watch. Still works.

I'm sorry for sending you this message to general comments but I have a pocket watch that has been in. My family for almost a hundred years or posisbly since being bought from Tiffany and co. Not sure because the Tiffany records office in Chicago had a massive fire in early 1900 and they were lost. It's in not the greatest shape it runs, but it has no hands and the case is wicked rough. I could restore the sterling case my self but was hoping you would take the restoration over because the watchmakers near me,southeastern mass, only deal with newer wrist chronographs and things like that. . if you could help me with compensation I would appreciate your time . Thanks so much. Btw it's a lognines movement and it has a secondary second movement both hand sets are loss but almost sure that both are originally the blue anodized coated hands. Thanks again for your time love your vids !
