    Another super genius kali breguet don’t forget John Harrison inventor of marine chronometer from Yorkshire. You must visit Greenwich uk museum of fine horology I’ve never been.

    Breguet was a Fascinating master watchmaker. Years ahead of his time. I believe the book written by George Daniels had recently been republished.
    Great video Kalle

    Breguet was one of the "gifted people" very rare, very talented. I will be on the lookout for that book for sure.

    Glad to see someone doing this on YT. I have an extensive library myself, lots of Perkins, Jendritzki, Daniels, etc. Subbed for this side series. Art Of Breguet was fortunately just recently republished, though I have an original copy. I would say its one of the best technical books written on watchmaking mechanisms and definitely Breguet- the rest of everything written on Breguet (except Salomons') is fluff. It's nice that it will finally be affordable and more widely available to many. The last book is for people who want color pictures more than technical details. That's the only thing I wished the reprint of Art Of Breguet did differently, it's 98% black & white.

    I couldn’t find the video that told your name, have you made a video on the banking pins I did a pocket watch yesterday and I adjusted them to where the safety pin just barely missed the roller table is this correct? It seems to be running OK but I still need to put a mainspring in it the amplitude is low, if I subscribed to your channel does that make me a member?
