Hello Watchbangers! I return this time with a video which not only shows the (attempted ) repair of a watch, but also is meant as a humbling message to all those watch repair enjoyers and hobbyists.

    These are really fun watches, but SUPER HARD to wind. The square 'fat boy' cases are just as thin, but have a much larger crown that alleviates this. BTW getting this style of hands parallel so they reflect in unison is SO HARD!!! Took me 6 tries.

      @Berlintime030 Месяц назад

      Hi Rudi! If you dont have the pallet fork installed, then its either a broken pivot/ jewel, a bent wheel or too little endshake! Best double check that everthing is where its supposed to be and work backwords to find the issue! Good luck!

    Hi ! Great project ! I am currently working on a similar thing and I am wondering what would be the best choice for the mesh wafers. Where have you found the wafers you are using in these baskets ? I am a bit unsure about which size to use. I was originally aiming for a size 30 (around 1mm holes) but I can't find it in wafers like yours. Coffee filters are available as wafers but I am afraid the mesh would be too fine this time (around 0.2mm holes). Any feedback on which mesh size to use and/or keywords to find the same mesh wafers as you are using ? Thank you a lot !

    • @Berlintime030
      @Berlintime030 Месяц назад

      Hi! Cool that someone is trying to make something similar! I also had similar thoughts to the hole sizes! I think I posted a link to these wafers either in these videos, on reddit or somewhere else! I think that these wafers ended up being some sort of industrial filters. But I also looked into the direction of fishing equipment, seeve meshes, etc... I did also see someone fully print the mesh pattern into the basekt walls, maybe that also an option for you?

    How much does it cost for servicing a watch like this?

    • @Berlintime030

      Services really depend on the condition of watch. I would give a ball park guess and say that a service starts at around 120 Euros.

  • @RooibaardBoerseun
    @RooibaardBoerseun 5 месяцев назад

    Bro you are actually applying too much oil, not too little. Also it would serve the watch much better if you apply the oil only in the very middle of the jewel. When you cover the sides or the top of the jewel -as you do- with oil it will pull the oil out from the middle leaving the pinion dry. This oil will then eventually spread out over the surface of the movement which isn’t supposed to have any oil on it.

    I just finished my first movement fix/service last weekend and it was the 8200. I figured what the heck. I can either keep swimming around the comment sections of other real watchmakers or I can dive in! Of course, I only dove in after having spent hundreds$$ on minimum tools and lubricants after discovering watchmaking a couple months agov and binging service videos since. But yup, dove in. This is an older of your videos so I'm sure you've got the new tweezers and screw drivers in service, but the fact you would post a video using this pair is awesome! The average person just dabbling in something to see if they like it might only have access to a pair like that, but otherwise might be intimidated off by the expensive second mortgage tools and machines. Thanks for this!
