Summary of watch restoration done for a client
Watch how someone in the past broke off the "unnecessary" bits of the movements to avoid an expensive repair, drenched the movement in oil, and sold it on eBay. We fix previous service mistakes and show what a properly cleaned watch looks like. We machine new parts smaller than a grain of salt! The client will love his refreshed watch.

Restoring Neglected 1980s Dive Watch - Vintage Soviet Vostok Amphibia
Просмотров 113 тыс.3 года назад
In this video I will take you through a full restoration of a neglected Vostok Amphibia, a Soviet dive watch from the late 1980s. It appears the watch hasn't been serviced for decades with caked up dirt, deep crystal scratches, and heavily worn case on the outside. The watch had a broken mainspring and a cracked irreparable bezel, these were the only replacements. I decided to polish the deeply...
Made in CCCP, hanno fato da una faccia ed una martella.
Good video, thanks for sharing.! The one I purchased from you at Instagram is working perfectly!
Есть у меня Командирские от Восток. Сделаны в СССР. Так же циферблат покрыт патиной от времени которая придает им благородный вид. Некоторое время назад заменил стекло. Сейчас пришло время продлить им жизнь путём полной профилактике механизма путём чистки и смазки. Хотя, они и без этого идут точно, с минимальными погрешностями. Но тем не менее. Покупал их я в интернете за каких то 25 долларов. Но они меня зацепили, и я буду их носить. Восток это мануфактура полного цикла изготовления часов с богатой историей. Спасибо за видео. Пересмотрел ещё раз.
Спасибо за ваш комментарий, Олег! Приятного пользования вашим часам!
Nice work! Looks great.
Thank you!
Lovley video, i have the same exact watch and need to get a bezel replacement any suggestions on where to find one that fits well?
Hey man, modern Vostok bezels shall fit well on these older watches. They make one that's a 1:1 of this vintage one but with an aluminium insert instead of brittle plastic. Send me a message on Instagram (@notarolex) and I'll share a link
Great job! Awesome!
Thank you kind sir!
Are there similar versions of this dial on amphibias ?
What do you mean? Looking for an Amphibia that's got a different dial than this?
@@notarolex no no similar dial to these model.Sorry for my english.I am looking for similar model.Is there any? model no?
@@gmaschine you mean the new Vostok models from Russia?
@@notarolex yes like on meranom etc.Is there similar model with these dial i can buy online?
@@gmaschine unfortunately they don't make these models anymore, I wanted a new one for myself too. But we can restore an original Soviet model for you like in the video - it will be as reliable as a new watch after our service! Send me a message on Instagram to discuss a vintage restored watch for you instagram.com/notarolex
Yes, finally back on RUclips. Would love to see longer videos on soviet watches / watchbrands. There is really not much information to find in english language on RUclips. Lately I find myself searching a lot for Raketa 2628.h and raketa octagon...
Thanks man! I'm glad to be making more longer videos on Soviet watches and how we restore them. For the Raketas that you're searching for - feel free to send me a message, I can help you find them and restore for you.
Crazy it was still running .
Soviet watches are beasts, they surely can take a beating
OMG I have the exact same watch!
Wooooow it’s so beautiful 😍😍😍
Hello bro, may i ask you a question? By the way it's question about bezel insert, exactly from which material they was made? It's very important to me. Thx👍
P.s. I have the same watch, but with a diff dial. Idk if I can use any polishing compound on this bezel insert?
Omg the Lego tire 😂
Most useful tool in my arsenal!
Vostok💪😎
great job
Thank you! Follow my Instagram @notarolex to see more stuff like this!
так ты свой, советский)
Классное видео, часы после ремонта космос
Great work!
Thank you John! If you like this kind of work, make sure to follow my Instagram @notarolex!
Bell battente ma omega nn lo batte nessuno
Well done :-)!
Howie, thank you! Join my instagram @notarolex for more watch repair stuff!
Congrats on the amazing job! How much would you charge for this repair?
Thanks! I charge 250USD for a full service of Vostok Amphibia, including 3-year warranty.
@@notarolex Thanks for the reply! The price for the restauration of a Rolex Air King, in similar condition, would be the same?
@@lucasb.1955 Of course not. The Rolex overhaul at their official center is 750USD, not including the parts. An independent watchmaker may charge around 300-400USD, + the cost of parts. A new mainspring alone for Rolex cal 3133 costs 200USD. Some gears can cost 100-150 USD. All replacement parts in my restoration are replaced for FREE. When servicing a watch at my shop, people don't have to worry if the cost will suddenly increase.
Love it; beautiful work !
Thank you! Vostok - is the best! Respect from Russia! Many interesting technical solutions are used in this watch (if you are interested, see my review in Russian). Sometimes the quality is not the best. But it mostly refers to the build quality. For example, before using in water, it is sometimes necessary to check that the back cover is fully screwed on. At this price, there is no other fully manufactured watch with its glorious history and original designs on the world market!
Nice work
These watches are worn on the wrist, not inside.
Amazing restoration. I would love to have a piece of art like the one you restored. Beautiful watch. Thanks for sharing the video.
Nice! I have the same dial. Unfortunately mine gains time like crazy.
the older bakelite bezels are hard to get, so you bought an extra watch for it?
I did
Silent movie. Great film, I love Vostok watches right after Rolex, both collecting them. Now I ordered 2 more like the one in this video with the old bakelite bezel. I have a rare bronze Kommendirskie or Amphibia with sniper dial.
Great choice! How does the bronze wear in real life? If you ever need your watches serviced or want to pick up a new one, feel free to reach out on my Instagram @notarolex or email notarolex.sales@gmail.com
Where did you get that strap from? Looks amazing 😍
I make these straps and sell them! Hit me up on Instagram @notarolex
@@notarolex thanks I'll reach out to you 😊
Silence is golden. Lovely video
Thanks!
Отличные часы
Спасибо, Тимофей!
@@notarolex изза тебя заказал себе новые, вместо таймекс экспедишн ;)
Thank you for sharing this restoration. I am following along, learning and attempting my first restoration as a hobbyist. Its on a Vostok Komandirskie though.
Good luck on your journey! Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or need my help. On my instagram I post watchmaking content that you may find useful -- @notarolex is my instagram handle.
Perfecto. Un buen trabajo. Eres un gran profesional. Sube más vídeos.
¡Gracias! Pronto haré más videos.
Beautiful work mate, you are an artist :)
Thank you!
No movement holder... No problem, just borrow some lego tires from your son. 😂
Haha it's a nice soft movement / watch rest!
Amazing work. I hope to learn how to do this some day.
Thanks! I'll be glad to see you on my instagram, I post watchmaking content that you may enjoy.
Everything was good about this video but one thing I don't understand, video location is N.Y. whereas the plug is European style 😁 jus sayin'.
Oh I was just experimenting with reach. I thought if RUclips thinks I am in NY, it will show this video to Americans more. Doesn't make a difference I think. I am in Europe
Мой любимый тип корпуса амфибии, у меня таких 2)) С такими же циферблатами, этот цифер кстати очень красиво стареет)
Этот цифер -- мой любимый! Сочетание с корпусом прекрасное
I was very disappointed after viewing this excellent video to find that you have no other videos.
More videos incoming Kent !
Hey Nik, I am currently in the market for a Vostok Amphibia. Really enjoyed your vid, although i was terrified something would go wrong, lol, you are the master sir!! I live in Canada, what would you suggest as the best way to purchase an Amphibia out of Russia, using a Russian vendor?
Hi Russ! If you are looking for a brand new Amphibia, Meranom has ALL sorts of Amphibias available: meranom.com/en/. If you're looking to pick up a vintage one, I can restore one for you. I ship to Canada free of charge. Send me an email at notarolex.sales@gmail.com if you need a vintage Vostok Amphibia
Эх еще бы люминесценцию новую
Всё думал о том, чтобы заменить люм на новый. Не решился делать на этом циферблате, всё родное без единой потери. Может, сделаю на аналогичном циферблате, у меня много таких часов
A vostok amphibia EMP proof anti magnetic watch originally?
Yes, it's antimagnetic. The dial and case back are made of some anti-magnetic stuff. The user manual says it should be good to use in a magnetic field with voltage of 4800 - 400 A/M. Whatever that means.
Nope lost me at every crinkle of plastic. Sorry it isn't artistic to me, simply annoying. Simply my problem....I wish you well. Take care
Cheers Jeremy!
I can’t believe that video was half an hour long. I was transfixed and couldn’t take my eyes from the screen. I usually struggle to concentrate on things but I loved this and the sounds were amazing. Is this what people call ASMR?
Thank you man! Haha yes, it is ASMR-like.
lovely video, just wanted to tell you that your carboard lamp screen is a fire hazard :D
Hahah yeah I ditched it long ago. It was an LED lamp that wasn't too hot though!
What a gorgeous watch! The video and detail is wonderful. I would love to have a model like that one. Thank you very much !
Thank you Max! I have a model like this one, if you're interested to buy it after my restoration, please send me an email at notarolex.sales@gmail.com!
compliments on the video and work, hope you will upload some more. have agreat New Year...
Great job! I watch many watch videos, and yours is done very very well! You work like I do. Enjoy your new watch!
So glad you kept this beautiful watch as original as possible. I wonder if you could tell me what abrasive you used to take the shine off the case.
