I absolutely love your videos. I’m not a watchmaker, I don’t even wear watches. But I love to watch any master craftsman working at what they love, and I like you in particular because of your sense of humor and the little silly bits you put in your videos. I love it that your children are often involved instead of shushed and sent away like most do. And the sweet kindness you seem to treat everything and everyone with. This is a safe place in an uncertain world, and such places become more precious by the day. Thank you for the giggles, and the calm, and the beauty of your art form.🤗🐝❤️
Thank you for your kind words Deborah, means a lot
@@NekkidWatchmaker You’re most welcome🤗🐝❤️
And that is exactly how I feel watching your videos. I can watch them time and again, not to gain watch fixing knowledge, just to listen to you and of course trouble I love you peace and love. Thank you for sharing this beautifulness with us all.

@@cheryl8386 thank you 😊
You're the only watchmaker here on YT that actually takes the time to do serious refinishing work on the cases. Everyone else just glosses right over it or does absolutely nothing. That's why we love you the mostest.
Thanks Matthew
i agree, almost completely. There are a few times when a watch needs to be sympathetically restored, keeping the history and patina. I think in cases of family heirlooms, watches with a significant history (you know the one that stopped a bullet and saved a guy). But a trashed watch that otherwise would be thrown away, restoring it to full glory only makes sense to me. There is no widow to rember how this or that dent or scratch happened. No child to remember "grandpas old worn out watch". In these cases, let the watch start fresh and live its own life. Now this doesn't mean just replace the guts and anything that is "too far gone". This was a perfetct example...he rebuilt that messed up part (im not a watchmake and don't remember the name of the part). but he didn't want to just replace it because it had a special finish. Anyways great video and I liked your comment and agree that many people just cop out by "wanting to keep the integrity." Nah there's a time and place. Peace
I agree. If you are going to do a "restoration," I want ot to be like new at the end. This guy is awesome!
As beautiful as they turn out, I think I would get addicted to plating all cases. For some reason I really wanted him to plate that caseback on this one.
@@josephiudice8287 I think there is middle ground and "restoration" could be a whole range or spectrum
Sentimental watches aside, the finished job needs to be consistent. In this video the case was really bad but the dial was stunning, so fully re-doing the case was a no brainer because it matched the dial. But if a watch dial has a weathered look with lots of 'patina' then fully restoring the case can look weird.
My favourite watch is a 1952 Omega and I love that it has had a life of wear on who knows how many wrists. Who am I to erase that.
So I think there is a fine line and Nekid nailed it on this video. Whatever he does, it is always exceptional and he is one of my favourite watchmakers.
Marshall over at Wristwatch Revival also puts a lot of thought into how far he takes a restoration.
That finished product was absolutely gorgeous. Bravo sir, bravo!
This Oris watch is a classic, elegant one! Thanks for this wonderful reno project!
Was rather hoping that he would have looked at the Seiko instead of that Oris
Your craftsmanship humor and those little voices that surround you bring joy to an old mans heart. Many thanks
Thank you 🙏
One of my favorite videos that you produced, taking an abused and unappreciated timepiece that once was lovely, restoring it to a brilliant bit of craftsmanship. I love how you display such a great deal of adoration, patience and engagement for your children, I'll wager they are your best friends, and you are theirs. You ARE the watchman.
Thanks for the excellent and enjoyable videos.

The Watch restorations brought me here, the man himself keeps me coming back, without exception I never miss the precious time I get to spend with the man himself.
My time with Joe is my reward
Beautiful. Not just the watch and its restoration, but those tender moments with your daughter and the lessons and humour you sprinkle throughout. Keep it up.
I'm by no means a machinist, but I have had a chance to make a few parts on both a lathe and a mill. Every time you make some sort of miniscule something it blows my mind. I had no idea taps that small existed, but now that I'm thinking about it, of course they do.
The scale in which the parts are done is mind blowing. Check out this channel:
ruclips.net/user/MasahiroKIKUNO
me too! to see the fingerprint ridges at the 14' 20" mark - really brings it home how tiny these parts are.
I’m not sure what it is that makes you so much more engaging than any of the other watch repairers on RUclips, but I absolutely love your content. I love the care that you put into every part of the watch, from the case, to the plexi, to the movement. I watch every video and I’m never disappointed.
Thanks Jacob
The love, wit and humility of a Godly person.
I agree completely JBW. Joe is a true craftsman. When others "leave the patina", I think it's just pure laziness, either that or incompetence.
Amen to that brother. Nice to see you while passing through. Blessings!
Amazing , chatting casually with daughter while handling delicate movement. Not annoyed at all by the distraction but seemingly welcoming the interaction. This is a great dad and I am so happy to know they under such great care. I ask for blessings upon this man and the labor of his hands.
The commentary on these older videos makes the entire process that much more unique. Bring it back for the latest videos please.
I simply cannot stop watching your videos. They are therapy. What will I do after I've watched them all? Watch them all again? Please produce more as quickly as possible 🙏
Wow, first I’ve said this before but I remember my children being under foot while working at my desk to feed them. I long for those days. They were the best of my life.
Second, all this time I really thought your toe nails were really painted!!! Imagine my surprise and relief they are socks lol!!!
Edited to add: There is no better way to spend my Saturday afternoon than watching you dance!!!
Awesome watch restoration.
A perfect dress watch.
The message at the end was a bit of a shock in that I lost my oldest brother yesterday at an age of 75.
It was simply his time to go.
Watching you at work is akin to transcendental meditation. You are an absolute master of your craft and a credit to your profession. I haven’t watched your videos for few weeks now, but today it felt like a homecoming. Thank you for your beautiful and informative videos.
“Transcendental meditation “ - you hit the nail on the head. ☺️
Absolutely wow !! Starting from something unusable to a gorgeous shinny Oris watch ! A huge process !! You an artist for sure !! ✨👌
Thanks Alain
Another beautiful Oris. What a way to enjoy what you love to do.
That dial is absolutely gorgeous, cheers for another brilliant show
Living very close to ORIS, its so nice to see such a nice piece revived.
Another beautiful watch rescue Joe. Rest in Peace Queen Elizabeth and God speed. Long live the King. Peace to you and yours Joe and cheers from this old retired coot living the dream in Tennessee.
There’s something therapeutic from watching your videos and I love the little message for your viewers at the end. Keep it up friend you are doing great work
You are a true artist. I had never heard of orvis.love the look and simple elegance. Maybe someday I will be able to afford to buy one. I am 76 year old combat marine disabled
That aboriginal adage was so inspiring I replayed it several times. I think that’s what connects me with watches and timepieces in general. They provide a physical reminder that each moment of our lives are both precious and fleeting. I’m glad I can spend some of that time viewing your craftsmanship.
Thank you 🙏
Just the best Joe. Can't beat black and gold on a dress watch.
Beautiful restoration. Your ending quotes get you thinking. Thank you!
I so appreciate this channel. I could feel the Love here, and that's enough for anyone.
The addition of the stud to replace the stripped out screw was next level. I'm a very amateur watchmaker and I find your work so inspiring.
I find your videos addictive, on many levels. I love your craftsmanship, your humour and especially your warmth and humanity. Please keep doing as you are doing........this world needs more people like you.
Another lovely restoration. In a universe full of entropy you bring order.
Beautiful Watch and Beautiful restoration. That watch was destined for the bin, but you breathed life back into it, so know it can be what it was meant to be a beautiful timepiece. I wish I was able to complete such brilliant restorations like you. :-)
I could watch you do this day after day. I love this king of stuff, and you, sir, are a great craftsmans
I have watched many of your videos, and you make it seem so easy and with little effort from start to finish! Keep us enthralled with your keen wit and nimble fingers.
Thank you 🙏
There are channels who just wash and repair and name it restoration, on the contrary you renew the whole watch. Great job.
I tottaly agree, I absolutely love your videos. Some nights when i have truble sleeping i put on a clip of yours and i sleep like a baby....as long as my wife are not sleeping in the same beadroom! :)
You are amazing!
That turned out very nicely and good info about the platting setup you have built on your own!
Thanks mate
What a beautiful restoration, such a simple piece and I agree that dial is a thing of beauty. Only you would not take the easy way out but manufacture a new post. Absolutely in awe at your skill and dedication Joe and the reason I subscribe to your channel. By far the best watch restoration channel on RUclips, thankyou for sharing.
Thanks Alan
I can't count the number of repair people who have told me that my beautiful early-to-mid century watches aren't worth repairing, despite their value if fixed. Satisfying (or depressing?) so see difficult issues tackled. Beautiful work.
I enjoy watching you use all the tools and equipment you have to practice your craft/art. You seam to have a bunch of cool equipment. Thanks
This is a passion for mechanical watches at a totally new level, love seeing the different equipment you have which we don't normally see.
That was amazing 😍🤩 Trash to Treasure....Such beautiful work and attention to the tiniest of details.
Thank you 🙏
I think that the watch, with all of its complexities and intricate engineering, represents an important example of human evolution. It’s really a miracle if you think about it.
If you add some humour and song references like Nekkid, you’ve got an example of the best thing from the best people.
I'm all for the fun part of restoring the original worn parts.
thanx4sharing, I'm watching.
Another amazing restoration and good to see you back on the channel 😎🇬🇷
Thanks Colin
I admire your skill and judgment, first picking the watch you want to make over, second, giving it new life, third showing us how you make little miracles to adorn our wrists. Excellence in a skilled hand.
Thank you David
Увидев это видео, я сразу же подписался на вас, и нажал на колокольчик что-бы не пропускать ваши видео. Я восхитился вашим подходом к делу, чувствуется лёгкость в ваших действиях. Желаю всего хорошего!
That time piece is Gorgeous. Simple and elegant. You are quite the Skilled Tradesman, my friend.
I can only describe this as a labour of love that few watchmakers possess.
Absolutely gorgeous, it wouldn't look out of place in a showcase next to the brand new ones. I hope the original owner see's this and recognizes his old watch, I'm sure it would bring a tear to his eye. Masterful work Joe, as usual!
Thanks Graeme
What he said.......
In this lifetime you are a gifted watchmaker & craftsman but I can assure you that you have lived through several past lifetimes as a wonderful soul. God Bless.
I will forever be incredibly fascinated with the dozens and dozens of tools there are made for using to repair every single part of a watch. This gentleman is a phenomenally talented watch maker and he takes something that probably should be thrown in the trash but is quite awesome after he sprinkles his magic on it. What a magnificent restoration he did on this particular watch to say the very least! 👏 👏 👏
Hello, once again I have to tell you how much I enjoy your videos. I have a lot of subscriptions to watch channels on RUclips but it's yours I enjoy the most. The pure pleasure I experience in you sharing your skills, your craft is hard to describe. I often think about how you've accumulated your years of experience in watchmaking, how you got your start, when you struck out on your own. I think it would be a worthy story to tell for us horologists out here in the Universe. Speaking of the Verse, Uni and Infinite, I love your words of love, peace and wisdom. They are so much rarer these days out in cyberspace and in the real world as well. Namaste!
Thank you 🙏
I really enjoy the craftsmanship and your attention to detail and whilst I am usually tempted to scroll to the end to see the finished product, I have found that I get more pleasure from watching you do the refinish and repair work more than the finished product! Makes me appreciate it all the more.
Thank you 🙏
I really liked this watch , never heard of this brand. And what a transformation!! I am a woman but like wearing bigger faced watches (i.e., mens), this one I would wear. Funny thing is I haven't worn a watch since mid 2020. I just found this channel and reading the comments, I am starting to feel relaxed not being a watchmaker and enjoying for the same reason others do. i adore the way the kids come in and out into the picture an the sweetness they receive from their "dad".
Thank You for bringing beauty back to that 'old timer' .. You are calming & pleasurable to watch.
Thank you 🙏
That watch is stunning! I absolutely lovewatching your restoration videos, especially when you create a new part or a fix that most craftsmen wouldn't bother with.
I've just discovered your channel and subscribed. Your work is absolutely stunning, there is no other word for it. You don't "fix" watches you totally restore them to the way they were. I like how you clean the dial in a sympathetic fashion and don't repaint , the dial is original only once.
My dad had one of those. I love watching you working on the tiny parts, it makes me realise how totally huge the "tiny" parts I work on really are.
By far the best watch resto channel on RUclips, keep the chuckle vision coming love em. 👌
Absolute triumph of a resto on this, can’t believe you managed to polish out those scratches without going through the plexi! I haven’t watched one of your uploads for a while but they never disappoint…….🙏😀🏴
Coffee with the nekkid watchmaker. Gonna be a good day
Absolutely "Beautiful"attention to detail was truly professional of a master craftsman of his art; Well done Marshall and you are,A1+plus Master Craftsman of Watches!!!
Your skill and craftsmanship never never ceases to amaze me. You have a gift.
I know this video is a year old but since the Israel conflict with the Palestinians, I've sought refuge here watching these videos. I'm so emotionally burned out and sad to my soul and being here gives me a bit of a break from what's going on. Your words at the end are so fitting for what's happening at the moment. Thanks for your videos and a place to come watch you tinker. Fellow tinkerer in other things.
Thanks mate. A lot of us are feeling the same way. Your not alone
I've only just started watching your workmanship. Just amazing and so rewarding for yourself when the projects turn out beautifully 💫
Watchmaker or mad scientist….you decide. Very impressive knowledge of watches, tools and chemistry! Great job
I like your videos! Thank you so much for share your work and your calm and relaxed comment. I appreciate so much.
Wow this turned out just right! I knew you would do an excellent job in restoring it to a new life. Very nice!
Beautiful job!! You brought back to life this watch!
you could hear genuine joy in your voice when you took off the bezel and crystal to reveal a unmolested face .... brilliant restoration ...... MORE PLEASE
Just beautiful. That’s why I love watches and will wear them every time over those soulless smartwatches
That's a very beautiful watch Joe. What a great transformation!
Thanks Martin
Take the rottenest watch and turn it into a work of art! Congratulations Nekkid!
You are a very clever man that’s why I enjoy watching your videos I’m not a watchman as such I just enjoy watching you working such an intelligent man keep up the good work
Thank you 🙏
I really enjoy your videos......the philosophy, your attitude is a welcome change from all the chaos!
I also enjoy your interaction with 'Trouble'! Your workmanship is the best! And, yes, I am a watch lover!! Thank you!!!
Thank you 🙏
Your videos bring great joy to me and others I’m sure. Incredible talent! God Bless🙏🏼
Thank you 🙏
Simply stunning! From start to finish this charts an almost unbelievable transformation. Congratulations Joe - this is up there with your best 👏
Thank you 🙏
You are the champion 🏆 of watch restoration. Hope I can learn from a professional like you. 👍
I know nothing about watch making or watch repair, but I do know beauty when I see it and that's a beautiful watch
From trash to treasure.....nice. Health and Happiness
Each time I watch your videos I'm amazed at how you manage to bring these bashed-up pieces back to life and in full glory. Nevermind the length of the videos, it's worth every second! Thank you!
Thank you 🙏
It looks spectacular. Just goes to show that a pedestrian brand can be a world-killer in the looks department!
You have a pleasant voice! You seem to be a fun dad. That watch is gorgeous…I love the red band!
Thank you 🙏
Love Your skills! You have a great workshop and tools. A true master, who knows how to solve any problem. Great work and video as always.
Thank you 🙏
What a beautiful timepiece indeed, and that dial is gorgeous even with that slight water damage you can barely see. Thank you for bringing us all these little treasures, my friend. See you on the next adventure, and stay safe.🥰🥰
Thanks Jose
Omg dude. You put a brass sleeve in for that broken off screw.
Killer fix buddy.
Making it look easy brother.
I do love your vids and your witty comment your a bit different to other watch repairers keep up the good work
Simply beautiful
What an absolute fantastic transformation, I really enjoy these full restorations.
Thank you 🙏
WoW, What a wonderful thing to see. I had no idea about how much would be involved...
Not sure how I got hooked on watch maker videos but I'm really enjoying them. I love your energy and the joy you share in your videos, it's contagious and most appreciated. Thank you!
Wonderful restoration. Worth every second of watching...
Thank you 🙏
Amazing result... I have the same watch my mum bought it for my dad in the 70s . He had it serviced just before he passed away and gave it to me it's still keeping very good time and is in excellent condition. Your skill and knowledge do you credit thoroughly enjoyed your video...
Thanks mate
Wonderful outcome - another Zen-like experience.
What a gorgeous watch and such an outstanding job. This is the difference between a repair/restoration and a true craftsman that will go the extra mile just to make sure it is done to the highest standard.
Thank you 🙏
Over the years I've developed a pretty annoying essential tremor, so the days of me doing any of this kind of work are well behind me. So I really enjoy watching your steady hands doing this finely detailed and meticulous work since I can't do it myself anymore :)
I, as well, have a bit of tremor flutter, so my view of Joe’s work is vicarious.
One of those best videos on your channel. Absolutely stunning 😲 This is watchmaking not cleanup and put together 😏 Thank you so much 👌
Thank you 🙏
Always a great work from you and i agreing with the most of the comments below!Thanks for just taking your time to thank me on my comments earlier. I will soon have seen all of your wideos and please take some times with your family, i think we all dont mind waiting for the next great restoraition from you. Terje
Wow! You turned that ugly old watch into a thing of beauty! Thanks for another great video
Another fantastic job. I'm amazed at the number of tools you have and the skill to use each of them . No job to hard . If the watchmaker thing doesn't work out ,you've always got a back up in the music industry .
lol thanks mate but others will tell you off for encouraging the singing
