Hi Josef, I don’t see my name and link to my full video of Clair De Lune by Debussy, audio of which you use for the outro music in this watch repair video. Could you edit in those details. It would be appreciated. Joseph Happ.
Hello Joseph, in the description I've put info about the Outro music and a link to your video. I've added with your name before the link. Best regards Josef
Precioso trabajo 😊
Nacib is name K.Djezvedjian is armenian family name.
Thank you for your comment and the information :)!
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!
I imagine the orders or orderliness this timepiece has witnessed over the years. I think you’ve cleared up all the deposits and corrections it has collected. The shine is a beauty to behold, so glad it found you!
This Longines was made in a time when things were made to last a lifetime. Now, we're living in a disposable society, where a bloody Apple watch will become obsolete in 6 months.
That's very true Lucas, quality, design, mechanical skill and a soul is unfortunately gone for many things. Many thanks for your comment Lucas, I wish you a happy day!
Absolutely a great video and a perfect final result ! It’s always fascinating to restore those old pocket watch ✨👌 Thanks for sharing !
That’s the sound of the police!?!
You are correct, first one :) thank you for commenting
Great!!! Thank you for the sharing!!!
Great engineering and repair/restoration. The people who can made this warch, who knows, what can make with their skills today.
Well done
Thank you :)
I admire that they were able to create and add parts as needed. Also, to figure out that jewels were required. Amazing craftsmanship. Thanks
is there a arabic word ??
On the watch movement, yes it is, it says "Nacib".
@@Watcheyes i was wondering because i thought it was other word im arabic and it nacib means destiny or a person name destiny in arabic . It a amazing piece of history good job restoring it 👏
@@high_voltage603 Aha I see, many thanks for that info! I'm glad you commented :)
Excellent work. I Enjoy watching skilled technicians at work.
Many thanks Greg, glad you liked it 😀
Nice watch. 😊👍 By the way, this watch was made in 1917, the serial number corresponds to that year. Regards

Many many thanks! Appreciate it alot your kind comment. En iyi dileklerimle!
dam watch looks it have been in the trenches for years.
"Normal use" :D many thanks for commenting.
I think it’s a shame about the case. There was some lovely patina on that. I think that as you polished it you should have gone for a perfect restoration and sorted the dents and brought it to a mirror shine but each to their own.
Hi, I don't think it's any patina on this type of metal, the silver gets oxidized but I'm no export. Still thanks for commenting.
Fantastic work! Very nice filmed and edited too. Thanks.
Thank you sir for your wonderful comment and support. Have a great evening!
Fantástico trabalho!! Parabéns 👏👏👏

I am amazed by your precise movement, is it really that much experience that there are no more design secrets left in the watch? ((я поражаюсь вашим точным движением,неужели такой большой опыт что в часах больше не осталоль конструкционных секретов))
Maybe it hasn't translated correctly, what design secrets :)?
@@Watcheyes it's just some kind of magic, as if you are the designer of this watch and know everything about its structure, it seems that way from the outside
@yugirambo6762 Ahhh I can guess what you mean, thank you! 😊
wow! this is a relic, to say wow is to say nothing🏆🎖
Many thanks for your comment 😀

@yugirambo6762 Thank you for your support Yugi, will continue create videos :)
Great job, I'm making an omega pocket watch myself, I just need to replace the balance staff (broken), and this video gives some good ideas, because I'm a beginner.
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.

Beautiful work as usual! Incredibly good fortune to find the balance staff in your parts bin!
Thank you, glad that you watched my video. Yes I was very lucky, first I didn't even look at home because it felt such a small chance 😀
@@Watcheyes Your videos are like mini-movies. Very well done. Much respect to you for your talent (in watch repair and videography).
@@WatchRestorationCottageWow that was kind, I'm happy that you like how I do my videos and the repairs, I'll always try to excel myself each time.
@@Watcheyes no seriously, there aren't many youtubers who can make ASMR type videos interesting and engaging. Look forward to your next.
@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.

@@Watcheyes I’ve just finished watching the full video again, thank you for making my day. Here in Australia I will now sleep and dream of Debussy and ticking watches.
@@josephhapp9 that sounds awesome! ❤️ 🙂
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!
