      @watchrepairtutorials When I turn the balance wheel of the watch down, it moves, but when I turn it towards the dial side, it stops. Why, sir?

    Thanks for the video Alex. In my opinion you're the most informative and thorough channel on watchmaking bar none. I've gotten into watch making less than a year ago. And have already spent thousands on tools. My pride and joy is my 1955 Omega Seamaster automatic in 18k solid gold. I'm not wealthy I saved for a long time. To purchase. With your the help of your videos I've serviced it myself (after practicing on junk watches). My daily watch is just a Tissot. Thanks again. Many of us aspiring watchmaker really appreciate it.

    If you have a lathe, an easier way is to chuck up the rod, drill a shallow hole in the end of the rod, then take it out and file down to make the bevel. You'll get nice square edges that way.

  • @drkujavec
    @drkujavec 22 дні тому

    Thank you as always. You are the best!
    I wonder if it is possible to modify or use an existing springbar tool. I have many that came as a gift with straps, and some are quite thick and have a diameter of 2mm. Since they already have the center notch, I imagine it would be easier to file them down.
    Cheers from Japan.

    • @watchrepairtutorials
      @watchrepairtutorials  21 день тому

      Sure why not. Just be careful of sharp edges that may scratch something.

  • @car5car5
    @car5car5 19 днів тому

    It would be very interesting to see under microscope if new watch(movement) has lubrication. It is probably possible to lubricate a movement w/o taking it apart. For example Seagull ST3600 has all jewels accessible.(It seems). This is what I am going to do as soon as I get the movement delivered.

    • @watchrepairtutorials
      @watchrepairtutorials  17 днів тому

      Without any experience lubricating jewels the chances of you over lubricating the jewels is pretty high which will result in lower performance or worse. You are probably better off doing nothing.
