How much should one expect to pay for a proper rebuild this?

Adrian doesn’t seem to make these anymore. No!!!!

Nice Workshop!Are you still doing watch repair?👍🏻🇦🇺

What oil do you use to lubricate the chronograph runner?

I think you bumped the click with the pusher spring which is why it unwound like that.

My dad has one of these and I’m looking to get it serviced / refurbished. Are you still offering services on these watches? I’m based in the U.K. thanks!

@4:20 what part are you winding to see if the watch will run?

Can you share where we can buy this push piece

wish to hear about oil grade you use for each specific item…

This is a great video! Thank you for your clear explanation. A follow up question that comes to mind from your video is if in this case it makes more sense to have the chronograph running (acting as a seconds hand) since this appears to be putting less wear and stress on the components.

Fantastic 👍

Love how techniquely precic you have to be with Seiko ( see it).

Sorry I know it's an old video but I am taking a shot in the dark....does the Epilan...Epilam...( spelling sorry) have any effect on Shellac

Thought you'd show us the end result!

Love to get a Elma for cleaning.

Thanks for a very useful video, i did not see the spring around the stem, i would like to see this being installed and the small brass pinion should this slide on the stem? mine is fixed or stuck and has no spring, i do have a replacement though

do you have to take the bracelet off the watch to remove and add? How long do you realistically have to wait after adding loctitie to wear the watch?

So did your screw the stem back in to the crown?

This is a very interesting video and I agree about the watch dial colour I think this is better than the gold colour of the 'classic' Pogue. For what it's worth Rolex will not guarantee one of their watches waterproof if it's over 10 years old.

Great review!

I've seen several videos featuring servicing this movement. You're customer is very fortunate as in this example the movement is very clean. Most of the ones I've seen the movements are a little tarnished due to their age.

I’m happy that other guy took his watch elsewhere, one less in front of my project. Just sent in my father’s 1639-6095 a few days ago. It is a 1971 model we gave him for his fire department retirement gift. He’s passed but always on my mind. I’ll proudly wear the watch in his memory. Cheers my friend.

Hi Ashton, what grit is diamond stone you are using for sharpening screwdrivers? Thanks

I need my 6139 serviced. Can you do it or recommend someone you trust?

Can you restore my SARB017 Seiko Alpinist?

Next topic: how to read time on a two handed watch with Arabic numerals and no date. Advanced lesson: what it means when someone says, “you’re late” and how to respond. 🤔🤫🤭

Super nice workshop! Very funny to see the Glashütter Uhrenöl liqueur on the watchmaker bench.

As a educational and informative video, maybe a little more concentration on keeping the actual work you are doing in frame would be helpful. But a nice explanation of the process nevertheless.

The Seikologist is not the most compassionate nor professional. After insulting me Austin told me to take my business elsewhere. Me a Veteran who was simply trying to have my uncle who purchased his Seiko 6105-8119 in Vietnam. The watch leaks at the crown but Aston was insensitive and insulting.

I contacted these people and they are so busy that the shop is closed until March and and and they have a 16 week ( three months) turnaround until I’d get my watch back! Austin talks convincingly in the videos but do you really want your watch gone 16 weeks? In frustration he told me to take my business elsewhere. I just thought you all should know.

Would it be worth just replacing the bushing with a jewel and drilling out and replacing the main plate hole? Somewhat new to watch restoration and I'm confident replacing a bushing but not so much drilling out the main plate.

Great video! Looking at getting a pre-owned Seiko Sarb017. Saw a couple that has been listed as 'Overhauled' in recent years. Would you advise that these are good to buy or should we steer clear of these unless we know where and how they were overhauled? Thanks!

A very useful video. Many thaks for dooing this :-)

Surprising how many Canadians I know have come to Australia, and how many Australians have gone to Canada! What's the deal?

Neat, tidy and uncluttered. The sign of a true professional.

A very useful and informative video. Many thanks!

Perfect I have the same watch 714459. I need the complete gasket set for the glass and Lünette to can you help me?

Hi Mark, received a 6119c which seems to tick ok, I’m able to change the day & date via clicking the crown in but I have a problem. The day won’t change naturally over time, and winding the time via the crown creates a clicking noise when arriving at the day change time. I am however able to get the day to change if I wind the time backwards. Hahaha any clue as to what might cause this. I know it’s hard to diagnose but I hope my description of the symptoms help. All the best!

Is Loctite essential or can I do without ?

I’m a furniture maker by trade, a bespoke furniture maker. Watching this made me realise how people feel when they watch me work, I was lost, how he gets this back together again is beyond me.

Very cool to see the workshop, always look forward to your new videos. Happy holidays.

what are the dimensions of these jewels?

I like the two video format. Fwiw. Thanks for video and info.

The Pogue at the end of the video is mine, and I can testify that an amazing service job was done with this piece. I would recommend Ashton to anyone for a vintage Seiko service. I couldn't be more happy, and what a cool surprise to have my watch featured here as well.

What direction does the flat go when installed on the pusher? Thanks.

I was curious about running the Chronograph on the 6139 models... is it better for the movement to keep the chrono running, or not running? I think I read once that it was better for the movement to have the chronograph operating at all times. Thanks!

could you cover the issues with the 6139 chrono resetting to zero consistently . Love the new set up 👌

Hi. Pleased to have you again. I would like to see repairs made in the lathe; a description of your lathe, what do you use it for, and how far you have reached making small parts with it. Thanks!!

The 6139-6002 Resist dial shall be on 6139A movement instead of 6139B, the second hand shall a 2 piece type as well

Nice setup for your Workshop! Subbed!
