    This watch was found in someone's old apartment. There is no history about it-where it came from, how old it is-nothing.
    I was asked if I could fix it… I honestly didn't know.
    I started to check the condition of the watch and found many problems. I filmed everything in hopes that this could eventually become a video for you.
    One main concern was the damaged and bent pallet fork. I couldn't find a spare part for it, nor did I have new stones that fit. I took a bet and wondered if it could run well with the damaged pallet fork… and it really shocked me in the end that it works perfectly!
    I wanted to make a restoration that preserves the watch. The watch hands are deeply corroded, so I didn't polish them too much to avoid changing their original shape. The casing was also corroded with deep pitting and scratches. I removed the silver oxidation and the surface corrosion but didn't remove the deep pitting and deep scratches.
    Hope you like the result! Many thanks!

    Neat seeing the baking soda/aluminum foil method used in a professional environment. Absolutely the best way to remove tarnish non-abrasively which is a must when cleaning silver that has fine details or engraving. I’ve seen so much silver over the years with details that have been smoothed out by aggressive use of abrasive pastes! Excellent video!

    Of all of the watchmakers on UA-cam, you are the most enjoyable to watch. A skilled craftsman, (to us mechanically inclined) is the best and most enjoyable to watch, bringing old, neglected, abused timepieces back to life.
    As a young man in the late 60's, I worked on the railroad. The railroad companies required you to have a certified timepiece that had to be synchronized at the beginning of the shift or before you took the train out of the yard traveling to destinations down the mainline. I purchased a Hamilton 99 2B from a retired "Old Head" brakeman. Later, I purchased a Bulova Accutron,
    however, the Hamilton was my favorite. If we lost CTC (centralized traffic control) signals on the mainline, we had to revert to train movement by time schedules (to prevent accidents). This was why you had to have an accurate timepiece.
    I have my grandfather's old pocket watch, a Waltham, that my grandmother gave to him when they got married at the turn of the century (1900). I would hope to find a gentleman such as yourself, to do the cleanup and restoration of this time piece as it is family history. Are you here in the USA or ? Do you do take on work and if so, where are you located? | will contact you regarding the watch if you do do outside work. Randy

    • @Watcheyes
      @Watcheyes  4 місяці тому +1

      Thank you sir! I wish you luck, you will make it. Just take it slowly. Check the hole when you have removed the staff so it's round and nice, no steel residues that sticks ut, round and plain hole. Then check if the new staff sits plain against the wheel and tightly before spreading the rivet. If all sits good and even when checking underneath (under the wheel, contact between staff and balance wheel). Then spread rivet and check again if it sits nicely and so forth.
      Note that you have to hammer quite hard on these pocket watch staffs, they are very thick.

    Very interesting video and well presented. However, there is a simpler method to prevent the problem of beat error, valid for every movement with pallet.
    Before finally mounting the complete balance:
    1. Also leave the pallet mounting aside for a moment.
    2. Assemble all parts of the balance to the best of your ability and mount the entire set in the movement (if initially disassembled). If the position of the red stone is not visible after mounting, look at the position of the balance wheel arm. In principle, the position of that stone should be perpendicular to the balance wheel arm.
    3. Now make sure that the balance staff, the red stone in the balance plateau and the pallet staff are on 1 imaginary line.
    4. If necessary, adjust the position of the hairspring on the balance staff so that the conditions of point 3 are achieved. Let the balance wheel oscillate a few times and see if the wheel always returns to the same position when stationary (with the position of that stone on that imaginary line).
    In principle, you should not have to adjust the beat of the watch after the movement has been fully assembled.

      @WatchRestorationCottage great, then I guess my sound is good. It's hard to adjust the levels, background noise vs cleaner noise. Still a totally clean noise can be boring so I'll adjust to background noise to a pleasant level.

  • @MillwalltheCat
    @MillwalltheCat 4 місяці тому +1

    Good to watch you work.
    1915 is quite late for a key-wind watch, don't you think?
    Also, the name on the dial looks to be Armenian.

    • @Watcheyes
      @Watcheyes  4 місяці тому

      Many thanks 😊 You are correct, key wind type is very late for this. I guess they wanted a robust watch with mechanics that would hold forever instead of more "complicated" and more expensive keyless works.
      Thank you for your question, very relevant one 👏 👍

Djezvedjian & fils Constantinople on the face . The back of the case opens and looks the same where the serial # is 4982153 how can i date the watch by that number Thank you
