After discovering your channel I started buying tools and watches off of eBay to try to learn the hobby. Tonight I successfully disassembled and reassembled my first pocket watch. Thanks for being so inspiring.

@adamleis83 2 года назад

I've been on the fence. I reeeaally want to do this too. And particularly with this channel. I've seen others but this one is the only one that convinces me I don't need to be an expert to jump into something. It's a problem I've noticed with a lot of social media videos, you only see the best of the best and often get discouraged about your own performance before you've even began something. I like watching somebody who might actually make a mistake and admit it and move on.

This is my favorite of your videos that I have seen because it was so small. When you compared it to the pocket watch, it really put things in perspective. You have inspired me to do this as a hobby after I retire. Thank you so much, Marshall.

@blister762 2 года назад

Gorgeous little watch. Definitely had some mileage on it but it turned out beautiful. I've used blue magic metal polish for decades. I used it to polish the brass and gold plated accoutrements on my Army Class A's and Dress Blues. I also found out it was great for removing tiny scratches from the face of my military A11 style field watch. Watch faces got destroyed deploying to Yakima Firing Range in the 80's and 90's due to the volcanic ash that buried the place from the eruption of Mt. St. Helens in 1980. The ash is basically powdered glass that destroys everything it can get into. So our watch's crystals would get hazy from the ash grinding away at it so instead of buying a new watch every time we got back I tried polishing it. It worked great. It could take about an hour of polishing with blue magic and a cotton cloth to restore the clarity and then a tiny amount of carnuba car wax protected it and put a shine on it. I still use the polish today though I've been out of the army since the mid 90's. I use it on the canopies of my aircraft models to remove small scratches in the plastic. I also use it to remove scratches on CD's and DVD's. Another excellent video. Thank you.

@nikkiofthevalley 2 года назад

Using that on a CD or DVD is a horrible idea. The scratches destroy a part of the data on the disk, (but it still works because there's recovery data elsewhere on the disk, it uses some fancy math to be able to recover lost data. Of course, eventually it gets so scratched up that it can't recover sensible data, so it just doesn't work. ) and polishing it just destroys even more data.

Marshall, I found your channel by accident. I'm pretty sure it was a random RU-vid recommendation. I started doing this, and it is absolutely one of the most rewarding things I've dedicated myself to, and it's all thanks to your channel! I've actually gotten some watches, that are this size of smaller, and I love working on them. I've got a few Seiko watches that are smaller, but most of them are Bulova ladies watches from the 40's and 50's

@coloradopatriotbaker3069 2 года назад

I too collect early ladies watches, Bulova are some of my favorite because they are so different.

@lildive88ttv75 2 года назад

They are some of the most unique and clever designs both in their cases and bands, and the way they fit the massive amount of parts in to such oddly shaped and teeny tiny cases. They are for sure some of my favorite as well, both to collect and to work on. I haven't found two movements exactly the same yet, and I've gotten around 20 of these early Bulova ladies watches so far

@1955mercury 2 года назад

I've been collecting and working on Bulovas also. Men's and womens from the 1920's through the 1950's. Mainly because it was the only brand I could find the right parts for after getting a Bulova interchangeable parts catalog. It's a disease! I have around 1500 Bulovas now and boxes and boxes of parts.

You should get a geiger counter to check for radium hands. It seems like a good investment for your health, since you should really be wearing a respirator if you might create even tiny amounts of radium dust. Because even a speck of that dust is extremely dangerous if breathed in.

@Jes9119 2 года назад

The first watch I ever worked on was one this small. I managed to get it apart and back together again in about 5hrs. I never really figured out why it wouldn't run but I guess it might be the pallet fork or the hairspring. Unfortunately in the process I broke the setting lever spring when putting it back in place and lost the minute hand(it yeeted into the abyss when I went to pick it up). I couldn't find much info on the watch except the movement name but that was pretty much a dead end when looking for replacement parts. But I had fun working on it, I owe literally everything I learned about watchmaking/repair to you. Watching your content made me want to try it myself and my first watch was one my wife was given. But now that I've cut my teeth on the hobby, I love it. Thanks Marshall.

You inspired me to take 2 watches, a 1950's and a pocket watch from my grandfather to someone again to see if I can get them running. I have taken them twice to the shops around here, but need to widen my search. The 1950's watch belonged to my great aunts. Both were killed in a car accident in 1967. The watch stopped and in 2019 I was gifted the watch from my mom as I never met that grandfather as he died of cancer when my mom was 18. Watching your videos (5 in a row) makes me think I should try again just to see them run. Thanks! LOVE when they start running, and love the oiling process. Keep up the great work!

@patbrown5168 2 года назад

Marshall, I really enjoy your videos and I know you strive for great accuracy in your descriptions. Please allow me to point out that the lume in these hands is not Tritium (which is a gas), it is Radium 226 mixed with Zinc Sulfide. The radiation from the Radium 226 breaks down the Zinc Sulfide and the binder over time and turns the lume dark. It is a good idea to wear a mask and to have a Geiger counter that measures Alpha radiation to be sure that you have cleaned up the work surfaces and avoid spreading the Radium 226 in your workspace. Tritium is used in some very recent watches in small glass vials or very tiny glass spheres, but these Tritium hands and markers are far too recent to be in this watch. Sincerely, Pat Brown

I have a elgin pocket watch from 1914 that belonged to my great grandfather before he gave it to me (he lived to be 96 before he passed) but when I searched for this watch all I could find is its indeed from 1914 but what's unique about it is it has a railroad dial where it has every minute shown on its face, every hour shown on its face,and a second mini dial that counts the seconds. The entire thing still works but despite my best efforts I cannot find this watch literally no image or listing or so of it anywhere on the internet but its model is findable and the like. It also has a unique thing written in it's back plate and also a small etched by hand initials of my great grandfather which I'm probably assuming it was when he was a kid but it's in need of maintenance and restoration.

Nobody used to explain me when I asked what is that jewels mentioned on each watch case markings along with brand name on mechanical or automatic watches. You properly explained it with such a macro lens fitted camera videography......Ufff. simply awesome, today I came to know why jewels are used and how they are secured in place inside a small watch case. !!! Thx man.!

I love to watch you save things like this for possibly another 50 to 75 years. Great Job

What one learns by working on all movements is what is common to all movements and what can vary. This gives valuable insight into how movements work.

I will probably never take my watch apart myself but these videos are still addictive

Thank you for another great video! The dial came out so beautifully on this one. For myself, I would love to see an elegant dress watch like that on a black suede or satin strap where the stitching doesn’t show, but it looked beautiful on the gold bracelet too. Incidentally, I can tell you are a professional videographer. Your videos are smooth and seamless. I enjoy their peacefulness and order. And I appreciate your evident enjoyment of your work, and your skill. Thank you.

It was brilliant to see how you try to deal with this tiny thing. I was smiling the whole video. Very amusing.

My mother-in-law gave me a manual ring watch which is even smaller. Doesn't seem to work, but I'm not worried about getting it fixed. This is inspiring, I'm going to have to get a kit and try. Well, I'll start with some bigger watches for sure

Cleaning that dial made all the difference. A wonderful restoration!
