This is my Omega watch! Marshall, thanks so much for the video and doing such a wonderful job cleaning and refurbishing it. My wife and I just watched the video this evening and we enjoyed your narration and seeing all the work you put into restoring it to good working condition once again. The watch has meant a lot to me over the years and I’m sure my grandson will enjoy wearing it too. You’re a master at what you do and it’s amazing seeing you maneuver all those minuscule parts.

Thank you so much for posting this video and sharing the story of the owner. I purchased the same watch (with stainless bracelet) in 1966 when I was a sophomore in high school, wiping out my entire savings account in the process. But, I still have the watch and it runs fine. I was so intrigued when you mentioned the Omega logo on the crystal that I had to check mine. Sure enough, it was there!!! You have such a talent...thanks for sharing!!!! BTW...I almost forgot to mention, that my watch had radium on the hands and on the hourly numbers (except at 12, 3, 6 and 9) which glowed at night after exposure to light. Only one radium blob remains at the 11:00 marker. I remember being so fascinated when viewing the watch face at night. Watches can be so special...smart phones not so much.

I was sitting at home taking a panic attack and feeling really low. I turned to my phone and RU-vid to try and distract me from the attack. I searched for watch repair and found your channel. I found your video a life saver and made me forget about my attack. I lay down on the pillows and just took in all the video. I loved it. I can hear your passion in your voice and how you handle the timepieces. Ty for helping me over a tough time. All the best from Ireland 🇮🇪

this is such an amazing video! My Grandfather received a 1969 DeVille for his 50th birthday (in 1969). My grandmother passed a few months ago, and we found the watch in a drawer. I brought it home from France, and currently getting it serviced and will wear it going forward. What an amazing coincidence.

Excellent video. My wife bought me the exact same watch for Christmas 1969, and I’ve worn it every day since, except in 2020 I brought it to a jeweler for service. They recommended sending it to Switzerland, which I agreed. I was without it for two months, but when I got it back I continued to wear it daily. It’s now 24 years later, and my challenge is to find a competent watch maker to service it. Sure wish you were near. Side story - on a recent Celebrity cruise, I stopped in their Omega wrist watch shop wearing my Seamaster, and when the staff spotted it their jaws dropped. They all knew of Omega’s Seamaster but had never seen one. My Omega made me somewhat of a minor celebrity. Again - great video.

This one choked me up a little. My father-in-law, whom I was very close to, had an Omega Seamaster that he picked up while in the Navy in 1966. Not a De Ville, but it still looked very similar except for an alligator band. After he passed, my wife had it serviced and gave it to me for Father's Day. I'm not ashamed to admit I cried.

For as much as you say you’re just a hobbyist as well, the amount of work you gotta be putting into this channel, all so people can watch and enjoy this hobby before they even start it, is so admirable. And its easy to tell you do this because you find so much joy and satisfaction from it. And then creating quite possibly the most convenient website to get into watch making on top of it? Thank you so much Marshal!

@putandro.740
@putandro.740 5 месяцев назад
As always love and enjoy your videos! Just a quick tip from a watchmaking student here… you need to cut the amount of lube you put in each piece by 50%. This is because if you put too much (very close to the amount you are putting) it will do the opposite job and it will disperse that oil everywhere and attract unnecessary dust that can get stuck and therefore affect time keeping as well as the wear of the gears and pivots. Also I don’t expect you to know this, but when you lubed the cap jewel and you put them together you can see that it isn’t a round ring of oil. Instead it goes on the side and that’s what we call the “banana”. This is caused by putting too big of a drop on the jewel so it will not get squished properly by the cap so it basically pushed the oil to the sides and none is left for the pivot. I hope I served some help!

The idea of passing it on is lovely, but how much nicer to get it serviced and pass it on now? Why wait? Enjoy the gift as a giver as well. Otherwise, the day he got that watch will be bittersweet instead of just all sweet. I say that to all of you. I had my grandfather's pocket watch for 50 years, but I gave it to my nephew (no children) a few months back and I am very happy I did. It went to a good home and I get to be pleased with myself and him.

Marshall, my grandfather was a watchmaker and he allowed me to assist sometimes when I was a tweenager. I didn't do anything super-complicated, but I was allowed to clean cases with the ultrasound and do some polishing, and once in a while, oil a cap jewel. :-) I have some of his tools (loupes and screwdrivers and the small anvil). You've inspired me to get some of the tools I'm missing. Then I'll start buying Omegas and Seikos and the odd pocket watch and get going,

It's funny that you post this video now, because I just got back my grandfathers Omega Seamaster from 1960 from the watchmakers. The watch is a 18k gold Omega Seamaster automatic which grandfather got gifted when he graduated high school in 1961, and he rarely wore it, only on special occasions. He got another nice watch (a gold tone Baume&Mercier Quartz) for his 50th birthday I believe, so he hasn't really worn the Omega for about 30 years because the B&M is much thinner, so it felt more comfortable under a dress shirt. For that reason, it hadn't been worn or serviced for 30-40 years and didn't run anymore. When I told him I recently got into watches around easter this year, he immediately wanted to give me his Omega. I got it to a watchmakers, there were some hiccups so it took a little longer, but they serviced the movement, replaced a couple of parts that needed replacement, replaced the crystal with an original Omega one (apparently the crystal had been replaced previously with a non-genuine one), and re-PVD'd the (original Omega) buckle. Now it's back, and it looks and works perfect. This is the one watch which I will definitely never sell my entire life, and, when time comes, pass on to my children or grandchildren.

This is all a bit crazy and coincidence . Just saw a post on a forum asking about an old school Omega with a picture that already had me like wth and now this! Just 2 days ago I found my late fathers watch again. A Omega Seamaster 600 in the original red box. Being into watches since this last year and knowing it was from my father I had to make the best of it. Seriously, I cleaned it up with the proper materials and I was amazed. The quality the looks how well and precise it is made, just unbelievable. It even runs! The leather strap and clasp on it with the Omega logo are still the original one and are still like the day it was bought I think, no cracks or whatever. The only thing I can see is a small scratch on the crystal and on the faceplate, but you really have to magnify on the camera and look at a certain angle. It will only be worn for very special occasions and will be passed on to my son. I also found 2 Tissot watches which I still have to check but I believe they are from my grandfather.

Hi, Marshall! I started watching your videos during the pandemic, and find your approach so inviting. I’m a former broadcaster, and I’m actually jealous about how natural your delivery is. I was totally stoked to hear about the website you started! Congratulations! Your channel has had me beginning my watch journey (I’m 55, so obviously coming to it late). I’m at the stage where I’m figuring out what automatic I want to buy. Given a limited budget, I have been waffling between some American microbrands or a vintage European brand. I will figure it out eventually, but I’m not there yet. Your videos make me pine for an Omega for sure. Those vintage ones are beautiful, and of a more wearable size. So cool. So, gee, thanks a lot, Marshall, now I have another website to sink my time into to make this even more confusing! 😂 I do have one ask: when you post a watch on your site, is it possible to let us know its story? Like what movement you think is in it, whatever you know about its provenance? Or even just links? Thanks for considering that. Last, I really like your SH logo! It would look good on a watch face! Not to bag on a company, but I have held back from buying a certain US watch company’s Swiss Watch because their logo doesn’t look good at all. It makes their otherwise great watches look very, very budget imho. Your logo would look great on anything from a mid-century aesthetic to a modern dress watch. Nice!

Hi Marshall, very new to your channel but I’m hooked on your videos. This one is special to me, I have my Dad’s wedding gift from my mother just like this one! They married in 1961, my dad’s still alive and well but my mother passed away a couple years ago. My dad’s already given it to me to ‘do with it as I will’. It still runs though very slow and knowing my dad it’s probably NEVER been serviced! I’m inspired to get it serviced and crystal replaced because it’s cracked. But with no logo on it I’m sure it’s a replacement anyways. And I’m letting someone qualified do the work because it’s too valuable for me to ‘learn’ on. Thanks for your amazing videos, there’re facilitating to watch.

Wow, we see a lot of beautiful watches on this channel but holy smokes this was a stunning wristwatch. Great work on the crystal 👍

Marshall, You're the guy. I never thought in a million years I'd enjoy watching someone take apart a watch and put it back together. I don't even OWN a watch anymore. If I won the lottery, sure I'd buy a nice one but I really don't see myself *needing* one. Having SAID that, I've seen every single video of yours, often more than once. And your channel is the ONLY watch restoration channel I need. Everything you do in your videos is absolute video gold. If I ever find myself with the opportunity to refer a friend or acquaintance to your channel or website, you know I will. This sounds like a really fun hobby for those who want to try it :) Thank you for doing what you do.

Exactly the same here! Have no watch, need no watch, I'm not a watch enthusiast. But enjoying Marshall's videos tremendously.

Very entertaining & informative video. I have a similar Omega Seamaster from the same era that my dad bought in Germany in 1970. I was also stationed in Stuttgart at Patch Barracks.

I completely agree about having your watches serviced. I've got to get my Bulova C860929 serviced but there aren't any places, local, that do this. This watch was the first "nice quality" watch I owned. My wife got it for me for our 20th anniversary. So it's time for a cleaning. I would also like to have it polished too. Back then I wore it regularly and it got scratched a little. It's my dress watch now. I would never attempt to do this myself though...lol... It would never run again. 😂

What a gem of a watch to perform the service on. That is crazy that the original crystal looked that good.

My father had a Omega knockoff of a very similar watch. He wore it daily from before I was born in '69 all the way the way through the late 80's. He replaced it with a Japanese market Seiko quartz tank he bought in St. Maarten. The movement stamped Omega Kleinhaus Student. I have a real Speedmaster. But I still wear his old Seamaster KO when I dress formal. I had it serviced back in 2000. It still keeps perfect time.

My father gave me his father's 1909 Elgin pocket watch when i was 10. I'm now 60 and realized I've been sitting on this watch for a life time. Your videos have motivated me to find a watchmaker and get it running before i pass it to my son.

When I got my Private Pilot License my dad gave a Speedmaster Omega, stop watch, tachometer, I lost it. I wish I still had it. Great video Marshall.
