      Thanks, I appreciate the honesty. I watched the video a few weeks ago just to look back on it and thought the same thing. I was in a phase where I was learning how to add free music to the videos so I went in way too heavy on it. Haha thanks again I really do Appreciate the comment. I was laughing at this video a few weeks ago it’s so long and bazaar with the music lol

    If you had a light source behind the bezel/disc, wouldn't that be helpful for alignment?
    I can't believe that thing doesn't have a wheel to fine-adjust the angle.

      Thanks man! I’d love to learn how to laser weld. I’m not sure if we’ll ever get a laser welder at our shop but, yeah if there was some work to do laser welding and was able to buy the machine I’d totally do it.

      @@986C Absolutely, the dream set up. So many levels to repairs and overhauling watches. Each aspect can be it’s own specialty. And, every job calls for specific results. Very hard to convince my boss to buy the laser welder when sometimes we can just service two or three ladies date just by the time it would take to overhaul a vintage sport watch. Very cool though. Trying to find people in this area that can do the laser welding really adds to the cost of the service too. Love the results we’ve seen before though!! Super amazing.

      Only if you supply the parts. Crystal ring, bezel and bezel insert. The dial would still say explorer ll and the model # on the case wouldn’t match.
