Your closing in on the magic 1000 subs keep up the good work! I have just started my channel

I've been following you for some time, Adie, and you've given me the itch to have a go at watch maintenance / repair. Can you point me to some resources which will show me the gear I'll need and how to get started?

Very interesting and informative 😁👍 thank you.

Just found your channel. Very nice work!

Nice watch Adie, long time since I’ve seen that type, proper old 70s style. could you get the scratches out one looks pretty deep 😊

Oh my goodness. Lid off, Lid on. Wasted exercise, but great work young Jedi

The guy from My Retro Watches did fix a watch similar or equal to that. He has a collection of those watches. This watch is interesting. It is the opposite of current digital wathches that use a digital screen to mimic analogue hands.

What an unusual-looking watch, Adie I've never seen a jump watch before. It's a shame about the lost footage but these things happen 😥 Looking forward to the next one, keep up the good work!

These watches are interesting. I have a Lucerne jump watch in my growing queue to repair. It has a Baumgartner BFG 866 pin lever movement (not as nice as the movement you have). Some day I will get to it. Until then, I have your video to watch.

May I ask two questions?. From where do you order your jewels, and are they particular to the movement or do you order them by size?. How do you measure the OD?. This is one thing I have not had the opportunity to do yet and would have no idea where to even find new jewels. Cousins?. Sorry for being a pain.

Ive been wanting to get my hands on a jump watch also, id like to have one in my collection. Very cool

This "ruler" that makes the spiral cuts on the screw is pretty interesting. How do you keep it sharp? Does it have a proper tool to keep it?

I know that it is just a simple thing, but the ability to make a screw by yourself is amazing!

I'd like to see the case refurb and strap....err...Making?.. not something I've seen really.. Thanks in advance if You do film it!.. and No Worries if not Matey!.

Not my style at all...but a total bargain at £15!.

Now you'll be able to do things that C Spinner Watch Restorations can do.

By the way, this table is nice 22:39.

It's funny every time you say "it will need a little bit of persuasion to..." It seems like you are calm outside, but inside you are about to throw it on the wall.

16:47 "I did googled some new bushes for this, but there are weird size and I can't seem to find any" This motor advertise itself as "universal motor", I don't think it is so universal as it claims😂.

Excellent work on the watch! I have one similar to it - cylinder escapement 8 jewel. Beautiful dial. No maker's mark on the main plate just a curved arrow. Mine has severe wear of the 3rd wheel pivot. The pivot will have to be replaced. Could you repeat what you thought was the maker's name? Thanks! John H.

I’ve got a tiny Sekonda watch similar to this that was my Mother’s. I took it into a watch repair shop yesterday but they said they don’t repair old watches. You are so clever to be able to. I remember when I was a child there was a Russian man who used to repair watches locally. Now it’s all big shops who just want to sell expensive battery operated ones.

Been a fan of this brand since the 60’s. Great AFFORDABLE watches. That are accurate if that actually matters to you. 😉

Walk away and give yourself 5 minutes is the best advice in watchmaking. Great video! I have just recorded a video on this exact movement! I did not see yours; if I had, I'd have skipped on to the next one in the pile. Hopefully you don't mind me covering the same ground. If you want a strap to use on one of your videos, give me a shout, and I'll send you one, on me! My info is on my channel page - All the best, Dave

Thank you everyone for the advice and tips, it's very much appreciated. Please keep them coming 👍😁

I restore torsion clocks and I have done a few videos using a graver, very satisfying making things using a graver, if interested search UA-cam for TorsionDell, use Castrol Hyspin 5 spindle oil to lubricate headstock, the gravers you show at the beginning have the wrong handles and way to long as they should sit in the palm of your hand and they are engraver handles , easy to make your own with hardwood dowl and brass tubing, the tool rest needs to be close to the work.

Hi, congrats on getting a watchmakers lathe. Those tools you showed at the beginning are your gravers ad they are basically the same that wood turners use only way smaller for the watch trade. Learn how to sharpen them and they’ll serve you well. The other item you were asking about should be a steady rest. It should have two more screws on it like the one at 4 o’clock…one at 8 and one at 12, and you should see holes for those in it. It mounts after your tool rest and before your tail stock, and it’s purpose is to hold longer pieces in place so they don’t bow while you’re turning them Good luck with your new tool, they’re amazing to have available and once you learn how to use them you’ll be able to make almost anything you can imagine for watchmaking. Look up Stefan Eric Pahlow on you tube, he’s into collecting Lorch watchmakers lathes and show a lot of work he does while using them. Good Luck from Boston Ma. USA

Outstanding 👍The Naked Watchmaker 👍 Joe is great🫡 Thanks for your inspiration 🙏 Good Fortunes and Great Successes 🤝

Whatever next? This was great.

Well done, Adie That was great to see you're making good progress with the lathe 👍 I think the problem with the motor not reversing is that it needs a third wire for the commutator which is common for brushed motors, but I could be wrong 😆 Anyway, I love the screw, it requires framing 🤣Can't wait to see the next watch video as well. Keep up the good work my friend!

Think it might be a center steady and the tools with mushroom handles might be small carving/turning tools

The Cyma WWW definitely doesn't use this movement. It uses the Cyma caliber 234, an entirely different movement.

In some parts of the video where you went quiet for awhile, I don't know if I could hear your stomach making noises or mine LOL

This was an awesome introduction to your channel as I'm restoring my great grandmothers pocket watch with an identical looking movement. Do you by any chance still have the donor movement that was to small? If so I would very likely be interested in taking it of your hands.

Its straps match nicely with the watche itself.

I've never seen springs in the bezels. First time.

I like the texture of this dial. Is there any specific name to that kind of texture?

Great video. I think we've all had those moments of regret where we realise the improvised technique we were using was indeed a bad idea as that niggling thought wsa telling us. Love seeing these inexpensive watches get another lease on life as i've got a few myself in diabolical states. You've inspired me to dig one out the next time the bench is clear.

Hi great video, Just wondering if you can offer some advice to me, I am just about finished a cylinder movement very same as yours, im stuck with the keyless works, the setting lever thing that the pin pushes wont align correctly, if anyone thinks they can offer some advice please let me know and i can send photos or a video of the movement. thanks

Another great video.

I have a corvette, I have watches, now I need a corvette watch! lol

Nice Job. to answer the question on Corvette, There's a Man in the UK that has a youtube channel called: Gentlemen's Watch Services. The video titled: Servicing a mystery watch. Who made it? Is it any good? He talks while servicing Corvette about a Parent company called Avia that marketed a whole list of watches that he scroll's while doing what you did. He's got a good sense of humor to boot. ua-cam.com/video/hI5CmYdt7SY/v-deo.html

Well done, Adie another great video and a great result at the end 👍Did I hear a slight grown when that spring went flying, if so, that's quite restraint from what usually comes from me when things go flying 🤣

To my knowlege it has nothing to do with the car but is a sub brand of one the swiss company's of the day . Nice job & great results , re; the mainspring winders have a look at A-x you can pick up a half decent set for around 30 quid that do the job .

Wow

EXCELLENT video! Yes, I love the Nekkid Watchmaker too. Marshal at Wristwatch revival was the one I saw first. I was hooked! So, I have been buying up all the tools and to many watches to practice on. I will be setting up my space this weekend and then will get started. Again... Nice job!

Like the title of the video!

Starting watching your video now.

Yes I was watching again :) - at 33.30, has someone drilled holes in that wheel? I assume to alter how it runs.

I just watched a video , I was like a life hack for hairspring revival. I'll grab it up. ua-cam.com/video/IoBd-oxpEZ4/v-deo.htmlsi=mcS9m7AGIt4z6yTe

youtubes best kept secret watchmaker... not for long if you dont stop inspiring us. thanks peace love watches
