Great video, spotted it on facebook today, thanks for making this! I have this same Speedmaster, not sure i'll work my way up to repairing this model myself but I do aspire to get there one day :)
@@LJwatchmaking actually I'd appreciate your advice and gauging of difficulty. I'm doing Omega 265s, 565s, NH35s, many manual wind vintage watches, and I'm familiar with ETA 2824 and some other ETA models (older) but not quite there to do full services confidently on a 2824 but on easier ones definitely. I have this same Speedy you worked on and I'm not at a point of servicing any chronos yet. Is it considerably more difficult to do a chrono like this versus a non-chrono automatic? Do you follow service manuals or did you learn this model? I know I'm not there yet but I do aim to be able to service most of my watches in the future, the chronos are the harder ones I'm debating that with. Thanks!
@@MathewRossi I just jumped into it throwing caution to the wind :) This is the first chronograph I've worked on. My experience with complications were automatic and with calendar. It sounds like you have a good amount of experience. I would definitely consider at least being confident at an automatic movement first. If you get used to the 2824 then the 2890 on the reduced should be familiar territory and not give you any surprises. Then theres only the chronograph module left. For the chronograph module i used a omega service manual while also documenting the disassembly with video and photos. You can find it here: www.cousinsuk.com/PDF/categories/4436_Omega%203220.pdf
There are atleast 3 different difficulties to be aware of when working on the chronograph module that that are difficult to explain. But when you decide to start working on it just reach out to me and i will talk you through it.
@@LJwatchmaking awesome!! Thank you for this! I'm going to keep honing my skills and work with 2824 and the like more, will reach out one day for sure!
dubois depraz chrono module as used in some ap royal oaks heurs who i think owned the company .a really nice bit of kit the pushers are higher than the crown as it piggybacks on the movement
Cool and funny video! the 35105000 looks interesting without the bezel. Could you explain why the movement was not running until you dissociated it from the module?
@@LJwatchmaking Thanks! I have this watch in fact and it's true that the movement has to have at least 40 or so percent of winding to work as it should. Looking forward to new videos!
This movement doesn't have gold, however certain vintage Omega movements, like the Caliber 321, have gold-plated components. Gold plating in movements is less common in modern mass-produced watches but remains a hallmark of high-end, luxury, and vintage timepieces.

Thanks Matthew! Let me know if you need any help

Very cool, well done. Beautiful speedy
Thanks Kyle. Glad you liked it
Enjoyed the vid.
More of that please. 😊👍
@@ericbouza854 Thanks! I have a Rolex that needs some tlc. Expect to make a video about it soon :)
Great video , make more videos like this please .
@@mrsispup6660 I will. The next one will be a Rolex video
Very Nice video
@@dragoscosmin7321 Thank you for watching. Appeciate it
Great, thank you for this sharing :)
Thanks for watching. Appreciate it!
Great video. Much respect, sir! Have you ever put a chrono back together only to find a little wheel or tiny screw still sitting on your workpad?
Thanks Brad! I haven't experienced that exactly, but i have experienced the opposite. Those tiny parts find a way disappear!
How on earth do you remember where everything goes? !!
I had to rewatch the video recording 😅

@@artblend4278 thanks! Yea the chronograph module seemed seized. Probably from dried up oils. So the movement did have the strength to move it.
@@LJwatchmaking Thanks! I have this watch in fact and it's true that the movement has to have at least 40 or so percent of winding to work as it should. Looking forward to new videos!
Are these inside parts made of gold?
This movement doesn't have gold, however
certain vintage Omega movements, like the Caliber 321, have gold-plated components.

Can you open Nautilus 5712/1a +++++++❤
@@anonnavi865 Absolutely! Will you send me one? ;)
Good, 👍
Thanks Devendar
I take one look at that chronograph mechanism and think who the fuck came up with this and all these weirdly shaped parts
I know right? It's intimidating to work on.
