Bruce Lee finished up very nice. Dan have you worked on any Seiko quartz divers 7546 or 7548 /9 models would be good to see a quartz service. Also great work on the clutch I did my apprenticeship as a mechanic and did plenty of clutches during that time but haven't done anything like that for many years now. Keep well from NZ
I did in a video a long time ago. I do it by constructing a chronograph bridge from parts and then placing the wheel in that bridge and engaging the levers to "turn off" the chrono hand. then I oil the gap between the gear and the shaft.
@@BlairWatchProject That's a great idea indeed! Even if you don't have enough spare parts to build the dummy mechanism, you can still partially assemble the movement to service, oil the wheel, disassemble and then properly assemble it. Nice!
@@PrecisionHorology This method serves the exact same goal of lubricating the "4th wheel" pinion by separating the wheel from the shaft. I like this method because the wheel is much more stable and I can be more precise about where I put the oiler. Plus it allows me to simultaneously check the operation of the clutch in the engaged state. Pressing downward on the pinion with tweezers is a bit risky when replacement wheels are non existent. Better safe than sorry!
sweet repair!!! great video! Great watch. You make it look easy... I know it's not.....I've tried.. LOL
Keep trying. It does get easier... eventually!
nice video 👌... a "Bluce" Lee dial 😉

Hey Bruce. I do service those, but I don’t get many requests. The clutch was a fun morning’s work. It helps that I have a lift in my home garage!
@@BlairWatchProject so you all set up as a master mechanic and watchmaker you must be popular in the neighborhood. 😃
@@brucebarlow6604 It’s really the physics phd that brings in the crowds.
Great video, thanks! Can you make one on how the center chronograph wheel is lubricated?

@@lovecraft22 I don't have a spare available for the A-movement, and that's exactly the method I use for those.
@@BlairWatchProject can I ask why you do that? Why not just lubricate as per the Seiko service manual?
