No annoying commentaries, no waste of time, no useless parts, just straight to what the title says and with great natural repair sounds. This video is amazingly satisfying 👍
I have a gold DateJust from the 70's that I'd love to send in to one of these channels to have them take apart and fix. Besides a tiny hairline scratch (that could be buffed out) on the smooth bezel, the watch is in pristine shape. Just needs a cleaning and mainspring.
Some brands you can see from the back if you take off the watch. When you can see the gears while wearing the watch it’s called a skeleton dial I believe. Rolex makes good watches but are far from being the best. To my knowledge, they don’t have an in house tourbillon, perpetual calendar, or a guilloche dial done by hand. If you ask a random person on the street what a Rolex is they’d likely be able to tell you it's a watch but probably not so much for other brands.
@@AJohnson0325 "...far from being the best..." do you believe yourself or something ? 60yo Rolex from my uncle and he wore it when he fought in the Jugoslavian war. Works like brand-new. Do you listen to yourself ?!
Idk what's more FN impressive the fact people can take these things apart and put them back together or the fact that someone invented and engineered the thing in the first place...
People tend to forget the marvel that is a wrist watch, so perfect and intricate. Every part works with eachother in perfect harmony. Something so complicated and beautiful
It's just watch buddy. Albeit a very good one. No rocket science there pal. If I need someone to fix my water problem , I call a plumber. Get my drift ??!!
I agree, however, it’s a very expensive watch so I think you’d still be upset if you cracked the glass. I’m not too bothered about scratches but it absolutely breaks me when I crack the glass on my watches.
@@HarshManohar”Every scratch tells a story” well some stories aren’t good ones. He cracked his whole watch which wasn’t a pleasant experience I would assume. Those scratches are a reminder of that
i love expensive things being used, shows the craftsmanship and quality instead of just sitting around locked away in a case. not that theres anything wrong with it but i commend people who actually use their things. like cars.
Oh thanks, I been looking for this whole time. I hate when my Rolex breaks it's sapphire. Once I forgot my Rolex on my Lamborghini Aventador's seat. I couldn't find it for a week (I drive Lambo tuesdays) and when I found it on seat it's sapphire was broken, probably someone sat on it.
As a rule of thumb that I would follow is if the sapphire breaks, immediately stop the watch as it’s very possible that pieces can get into the movement, especially because of the date window. Sapphire breaks are very common when dropping onto tile as well in case anyone is curious
wait: what is that at 3:18 ?? was not there before he wiped was it? looks like little scratches but I am sure it cant be? other than that excellent all around
How does one become a watch repair person or watchmaker, i assume they demand some prior knowledge and talents or can one just apply to an aprenticeship?
I’d love to be a Rolex fixer… just concentrating on the job at hand, not having to deal with pesky people in general, and probably having a relatively decent pay.
@@rutabega306as a geneva citizen like myself its pretty easy, you go into a CFP right after middle school where you stufy for 4 years about watch making. Then you go and get an apprenticeship at rolex
@@rutabega306probably by having enough money to spend on the machines required to do the work which probably cost an arm and a leg, especially if you want to fabricate parts yourself
@@AnimeVideoEditor you think when you finally get as skilled as they are, they're going to let you work and run your business on their machines and with their tools still? Even if you don't do an apprenticeship, you can still learn how a watch works and how to work on it, it would be much harder, but you can still do it. Not saying watchmaking is easy, but the gatekeeper isn't attaining the skills, it's having money to spend on your own machines and tools.
