  • Restoration of a vintage watch Omega Speedmaster Mark II. This watch has the iconic calibre 861. I bought this watch at auction and it is in a rough shape. I will have to restore it to find its former glory.

    Great work so far on this watch. I am becoming a fan of these Mark II watches and their early 1970s look. There is a video on UA-cam about a 1971 Mark II restored by Omega that's A+.

      For sure it is a lovely model. Hope to finish it soon to show you the final product

    Great video. Looking forward to the reassembly. The damage to the hands looks like they have been hitting each other when the chronograph is reset.

      Thank you for the comment. The assembly is done but I am missing a tool to insert the new crystal. As soon as it is done I will post the second part

    This is the second video with no end, I recommend you follow through with one project first instead of opening up several and seamingly finishing none...

    • @FrenchWatchCollector
      @FrenchWatchCollector  2 роки тому +1

      The project is finish but if I put the full disassembly and assembly the video will take more than an hour and a half. The second part of this série is coming at the end of this week and the mark III next week

    This is a good one as always. I have been wanting to find an Omega to restore and this is a great help.
    Oh, btw, what is the name of that website you mentioned that has data sheets for various watches?.
    I never thought they were even available except for perhaps a few Seikos.

    • @FrenchWatchCollector
      @FrenchWatchCollector  Рік тому

      You can find them on cousin uk or other website. Just put the caliber number and tech sheet on google and you will find some

    My heart sank when I saw how this watch came to you. How did anyone damage the hands like that?
    I noticed on the disassembly there was no dust cover (or antimagnetic shield) over the movement, like there is on the Moonwatch. Did the MKII series not use them?
    Great video, thanks.

      Yes a part two is coming with a lot of delay that was not planned. There is a very interesting technical reason for this delay and that will be explained in the part teo
