    It is not only fascinating that these watch repairs are superlative, and well explained, but also endearing that you put a lot of personality into it. I'm imagining there is a lot of science that compels this sort of perspective. Indeed, the earth goes around the sun in many dimensions, moving forward, spinning, and also tilting and wobbling, and speeds up and slows down. The face value of science likes to see it as a precise mechanical process like a car engine at a fixed ratio. That is a particularly startling sub too, visually. Todays subs have changed so little from it.

      Great feedback Graham, I try to make videos on subjects that I am interested in myself and I think other folks will also find interesting and enjoy watching. Stay tuned for more on the Rolex Milsub. Richard

    I knew it. 24 hours. Too damn perfect and round a number to be true.
    The music you chose really makes me feel like I am being filled in on some ominous information from which the veil has been lifted, and soon after I am going to be tasked with bringing _them_ down--the ominous THEM--who sold us this lie of 24 hours, and will prove exceptionally challenging to take down since they are always four minutes ahead of us.
    What a video. Top quality.

    I'm an engineer and I though this was very interesting. Might have heard about it before but I don't remember it. They must have thought for a while how to measure time with a watch, this mean value, very clever. Nicely done story, got stuck right away 😀

    The title being so spot on. So Beautiful just like a mini documentary but can't wait for a part two of a mini series and more examples of this timely divorce from the stars! 🌟
    Thanks again Richard and If I may say it this should be streaming on History Channel. Have a Nice day sir.

It kind of reminds me about my marriage! ;-D Thank you for sharing Major! Cheers and best wishes from Italy.

    The Earth is also closer to the sun during part of its orbit. It is closest to the sun (and moving faster by 1km/sec) around the 3rd of January than it is on the 3rd of July. Therefore, a day is a different length of time relative to the sun on those dates.

    I watch (pun intended) and enjoy your videos. And there's a lot of interesting information in here, thanks. But aren't you a touch overboard? The watch doesn't lie. It simply does what it's designed to do, tell me what the time is during every day use. Most sundials, are not as sophisticated as your example and don't have seasonal adjustment. And many aren't even set up properly for latitude. What does amaze me is the precision which many ancient structures were created to allow the sun to shine on a precise spot on one or two days a year....

    • @richardperrettwatchmaker

      Hi kevgermany .... great observation! I confess that I am definitely and consciuosly 'a touch overboard'. My aim was to wrap some interesting and little known information in a 'sparkly wrapper' so folks might actually open it and get the benefit of it. Hope this modus operandi mitigates my actions here!

    And even then the story is not complete; the Earth speeds up and slows down owing to the effects of the tides, and shifting distribution of ice at the poles. So GMT is divorced now entirely from the motion of the stars.

    地球自轉竟然是361°,一天是23小時56分。
    我只知道一年是365日6小時,所以每4年就要加多一日在2月份,因此出現了2月29日的天文現象。2月29日出世的嬰兒,每4年才有一個生日。
    因此:
    第1年的生日是在2月28日0600hrs.
    第2年的生日是在2月28日1200hrs.
    第3年的生日是在2月28日1800hrs.
    第4年的生日是在2月29日。
