    This video embodies the whole reason why I have followed you all these years. I've commented many times on how I've loved the best of your videos when I hear your gentle voice guiding your children. And now here they are, working with you. Stay safe and I look forward to more of your father and son(s) videos. 🙂

    A father teaching a son. A son honouring his father. A greatful audience remembering their own father's. Tears.

    @gmichaelhall 4 місяці тому +30

    Arguably, one of the most sublime yet profound moments in a Fathers life is saying to his son, “Go on then”.
    It’s an unspoken transpose of “ I’m right here and got your back “
    There is no video on the YT that contains such poetic content encased in a real world demonstration of watch restoration.
    1 of 1 scores 10 out of 10 and a star is born ⭐️
    Be well Joe and thanks

    I am a retired Dentist from many years ago. We had to cast and polish our inlays and crowns ourselves. Watching you polish these watches brings back good
    memories and gives me a warm feeling.
    I also love to hear you speaking with your son. He seems a sweet and beautiful young man.

    Joe, if your dear son learns only half of your skills he will be a fine watchmaker and restorer. With luck, and patience, if you can pass on all of your skills he will be a truly great one. Yours has to be one of the most satisfying of crafts to learn and practice. Let us hope it becomes your son's passion also.

So great to see talent passed on to the future generations. Kudos...and thank you..!! - Do like the choice of strap..accentuates the watch
