    Everytime I see one of your videos, I miss my Father (may G'd keep him at His side) saying to me: "There are no hard tasks, there are the wrong tools!"... How beatiful may be the work of a skilled watchmaker, well equiped and with an artistic eye for videomaking!!! Thanks a lot for your dedication to us, your fans!

    What I find incredible is how this video was created, and this being taken for granted is the best part of it, first as it looks and feels so natural you do not notice it, and second how difficult and time consuming it is to create something like this, all those camera angles and shots while actually doing this restoration, which is by itself a difficult and complicated job. Simply magnificent!

    Not often I comment on videos but, this one is worth it. Very cool restoration and I like the 'silent videos' with subtitles explaining to those not involved in watch repair what you're doing. Superbly shot and loved the cool music on the outro. If I'm being fussy the cost of parts would be useful - just a guideline for those that love the smaller details. Great work.
