    Many thanks for this incredible restoration. I can’t avoid thinking how many hours, how many processes, machines, hand tools, consumables and how much time your training took. Well, yes I also thought on how much a restoration like this one could cost. Congratulations!

    Someone is going to be chuffed to bits putting this back on. Superb job. If it was mine it would go straight bacķ in the box marked " Special Occasions Only )

    Hi, can I ask you for a possible restoration of the dial of my Eterna super kontiki?

    • @Vintwatches
      @Vintwatches  3 місяці тому

      Unfortunately I’m not a dial expert 😬

  • @DutchClawz

    Nice work but that copyright free music is most anoying.

    • @Vintwatches

      Thanks, true with the music, I improved that in my newer videos.

  • @ygrbooks

    While I admire your workmanship, I am more inclined to preserving the watch as in original condition as possible. In this example you have a case restored and polished to its original, but the dial and hands look vintage, which kind of does not work for me.

    • @Vintwatches
      @Vintwatches  Рік тому +2

      Thanks for your comment! The customer wanted to keep all parts like that.

      I agree with you, It is stunning work but imo bezel insert and dial don't fit the restored case no more

  • @joek2488
    @joek2488 Рік тому

    This is a tool vintage watch. The people who typically collect these want them in original condition, even if it is rough. By refinishing it the way you did you took away considerable value.

    • @justinscott7492
      @justinscott7492 Рік тому +1

      True for some, ut I would want a brand new piece as if I bought it then. This is as close to that as I can get. To each his own,

    • @steve1811uk
      @steve1811uk Рік тому

      I like to experience the watch as it would have been when first bought when new.

    • @perfectiom3718

      There's so much wrong and contradicting at that comment

    • @Vintwatches
      @Vintwatches  11 місяців тому

      Thanks for your comment 🙏 Actually this watch was from a very serious collector who has several Eterna pieces in his collection. He‘s now enjoying the watch in a condition he likes.
