    Joe , I’m sorry to hear your hurting . The joy in your voice has gone and it breaks my heart . The world as we know it has been forever changed . The cruelty we display towards one another is unforgivable. Please know that my heart and soul also are in pain and have been for several years now. We as humans have been hurtling towards this destiny and it seems that it isn’t getting better but worse . Thank you for your videos and kind words . Even though you are hurting you still bring joy to so many . ❤

      Dear @Nekkidwatchmaker, The Divine Creator of the Heavens and the Earth told us through his Divine words that in the last days things would devolve into this horrible state of affairs...worldwide. Dear Brother, we believers in His Divine words are not isolated from the Evil and dire troubles that this world has turned into. We will all experience this sort of thing and sadly much worse! Yet, we must have Faith that though we are in this world, we are NOT part of this world. God give you peace Brother and Bless continually you and yours, Amen.

      My mother told me this words and it was a Motto in her life
      I say it in German : " Frieden ernährt Unfrieden verzehrt "
      We are all humans and we are a great human Familie.
      We have to live in peace or we were vanish from this planet.
      Yours Frank

      Добрый день. Я из России я не понимаю слов, только могу переводить текст.. как я понял печаль связанная с политикой. У нас тоже что то странное твориться, не знаю как объяснить русские и украинцы, да это почти один народ..
      Жаль что не всё понимаю из слов, но из видео с Braitling про грустного мастера перевёл, наверное я и есть грустный мастер. Да ваши видео добрые
      . И мне это очень нравится.

    I don't comment much on any channel. But having watched yours for some time it just gets better and better.
    Your general approach at the start is calm, collective and only going in one direction. The finish. You certainly
    are an exception. Thank you.

    Not all tinkerers are equal it seems. That's a pretty shoddy effort. It's good to see it treated with the respect it deserves.
    We can only hope that all of humanity one day learns to treat each other with similar levels of dignity and respect.
    Take care brother ❤

    My father served in the 2nd para’ out in Palestine in 1945. He witnessed some terrible scenes that made it almost impossible for him to speak about; scenes that are being replicated on an even more horrific scale now. The root of all this evil imho is religion, and the inability of people of different beliefs to accept each other as friends and not enemies.
    At least however your impeccable skill shines a bright light on the watch world 👏🏻

    A complex watch, fascinating to see how you bring it back to life and beauty. But your thoughts and the song at the end left me in tears. I see this stuff; see those children and the terror, destruction they're living through, and it rips my heart to pieces. I'm with you 100%, and I have no solutions to offer. Helpless in the face of such cruelty and sadness I feel. I understand you find it hard to speak, and you're exhausted. Know that you are not alone, that many like me stand together with you, struck dumb and bereft. :(

    Joe, I wish I had words to comfort you, your family and everyone in Israel/Palestine during these trying times. When hate is met with hate between governments and ideologies, it is always the innocent that suffer. There are no good guys or moral high-grounds in war...only those who are left. The ugly side of human nature rears its head all too often when simple words and love could carry us all beyond this. Through your art, you bring a sense of peace to so many trying to make sense of the senseless. Thank you for sharing your little corner of the world with those everyone. We may be different, but we are also the same. May peace, love, and forgiveness fill all our hearts.

You have earned every tool at your disposal because you continue to push the limits of your acquired skill beyond the comfort zone of any tool. Your exploration, discovery, disgust and reclamation of your chosen profession/pastime/passion is irresistible. And Trouble is a joy and lesson to us all.

    Hey Joe. I'm a huge fan. At the end of your restoration of the 18k IWC you said, walk on with hope in your heart. Are you a Liverpool FC fan? Also, how does one hire you? My mother bought me a Cartier basculante manual wind ref. 2390 for my birthday. She decided to have it engraved for me. Rather than engravingit, he laser etched my initials so that they came up upside down when the watch was inverted. In an attempt to grind it out he made a mess of the back of the case. It also runs fast, but I believe that can be adjusted, because I believe he serviced the watch when he had it. I would live to hire you and it would make a great video due to the mechanics of the case. My mother and I love you content and we both thank you for being such a lovely man at a time when the world really needs that. ❤️

    I have nothing to do with watches except I like wearing them. After watching your vid on the Citizen Eco-Drive in a very bad state. I bought one on E-Bay for about 300€ and spend another 300 + changing all the looks and a new movement. Now I have this beautiful watch that I love dearly. What I`m saying is that watching your vids, not only is it so much fun and relaxing it also gave me a deep love for watches and what they are about. Thanx for that good man. I think this was more work than the CARTIER SANTOS and the Citizen Skyhawk Eco Drive.

    Magnificent work for a magnificent watch that is not out of date at all!

    Joe your close up shots have somehow become just beautiful. Sending you my fellow “tinkerer” much love in these difficult times.

    I have a Kelek automatic chronograph which I treasure. It too has the winder on the left. I was told that it has a movement which was one of the first. It has a Buren movement.
