    Wrist Watch Revival is a major reason why I became fascinated with watches. To be able to see beyond the case back was mind blowing. One of the greatest watch channels on UA-cam.

      WWR is simultaneously therapeutic, educational and entertaining. I just wish he’d take outside repair work. Who wouldn’t want to see their vintage watch being refurbished on his show!

    The comment about doing the voice over after the video is where Marshall is above the rest. When you listen to his voice it sounds like he is commenting it live as he is working on the watch, it never feels like this is a post prod edit. Thank you for inviting this guest into your channel, I hope more people learn about him and the great content he puts out there.

    There's a girl at work who knows of my love for watches but isn't into the hobby herself. She was like 'oh, I watched a video..' and started describing Marshall's old water damaged Explorer vid that a daughter hoped someone could fix.
    And I said I know that video! And pulled it up and she was like 'Yes! That one! That was so cool and a really nice story.'
    Marshall's vids can just get anyone watching. She wasn't even sure how she stumbled upon it.

    • @WatchCrunchOfficial
      @WatchCrunchOfficial  10 місяців тому +2

      That was a great vid 👍

    • @nautaki
      @nautaki 6 місяців тому +2

      She stumbled upon it because Google and/or Apple noticed that your phones spend a lot of time close to each other (when you are at work) that there is a possibility that you might share the same interests. So they promoted some of your favourite videos to her and some of her favourite videos to you. Can you figure out what is it she enjoys watching online by your "unusual" recommendations from UA-cam? ;-)

  • @jatco84

    So cool to see Marshall in the flesh..and not just a voice behind his work. Love his channel and his work. I don't think he can call himself a 'novice' any longer. Kudos to you and your journey. Love the fact that you hail from the PNW. Keep up the great work. Thank you.

    Great review. The term overengineered for a old school Rolex movement reminds me of appliances like stoves with porcelain finishes back in the 50s. We now live in a throwaway society. I have a model A roadster and when I see a Tesla I think of a a future door stop 😊

    I can't give enough praise towards Marshall because he has the right stuff for UA-cam and is very personable and isn't afraid to laugh at himself when working on watches. I am just getting started with watch repair and I'm pretty sure I have watched most of his videos.

  • @MrArtVendelay

  • @jamespassas9441

    A view from the UK. Hi from this rocky outcrop in the north east Atlantic. Just thought i'd post to let you know i am a regular viewer of Marshall's channel. Like probably many viewers of specific interest channels i went to many to find one i was empathetic to and WR suited the way i like to relax and watch a subject that has a beginning, middle and an end and forgive the cliché but that is the "revival" of a non functioning watch. What adds to the enjoyment is Marshalls voice is so relaxing and non aggressive and does not dominate the overall product but enhances it. He is not afraid to tell you his failures or mistakes, confident that we "fixers" know it's all part of the way any repair goes. His love of the subject comes shining through. What i want to know is where the Sam Hill does he get his parts from. They are all not on ebay surely? Great interview by the way. Nice to put a face to a voice.
    Just as an aside, i avoid the sales type videos like "Luxury Bazaar" or "Pride and Pinion". I see them as vacuous ripoff merchants just using youtube as a shop front. Also video channels of watch "Fanboys" that have no grounding in horology yet want to convince you they have a valid opinion on any and every watch that you should listen to. I paraphrase Marshal when he said the best way to know a watch is to repair it. All fanboys go on about is the dial. I have one last question to you. Why would i buy a mechanical watch, beautifully crafted by Patek Phillippe at $100k and cannot see the workmanship, when i can buy a quartz analogue for $200 that keeps better time AND stays under my cuff most of the day as i only look at the time no more than 5/6 times a day.?

    Thanks for the video. I regularly watch Wrist Watch Revival when I am either tinkering with my own watches, or, more likely, hand sewing (yet) another leather strap for one of them. I love your gentle style, knowledge and ability to explain the intricacies of these lovely movements. Keep up the great work both of you, and keep well :-)

    There is a very interesting segment at about 16:00. They get right to the edge of a discussion about emotional availability and sense memory. That emotional availability is what makes his voice-overs so engrossing. I like Marshall's channel and appreciate this interview.

    I enjoy Watch Revival channel and it's impressive and fascinating to see how Marshall amazingly restores many messed up watches. Has done great work to help many people who have a broken or otherwise non-functional watch and bring it back to life for continued enjoyment and pass down the family line for many more years.
    I've never been brave enough to completely disassemble and reassemble any movement. But, through my watch modding experience, I not only gained confidence to regulate my own watch. But, also, one time I had a non-functional Seiko with a 7s36 movement.. yes, it's just like the 7s26, but with an extra jewel and maybe one component or two different. Long story short, I discovered the magic lever system was the problem area. Compared it to what it should look like with a functional one and how it operates. Then took the broken movement apart and reassembled it to be working.. basically, somehow, one of the parts had slipped out of place and wasn't winding the mainspring correctly.. not at all. I just moved the part that was off into where it seems to be in correct place, tested it, it worked,.and put the whole thing back together again.
