Very interesting. If only it wasn't so expensive to start with. A bit out of my budget for my tinkering. Still always happy to learn new things about watchmaking, even if i can't immediately adapt it. Some day, some day. :)
You could get by with just 9010, HP1300 and Molykote for a very basic service, but you're still paying around 60€ for it. So yeah, not cheap, but for a hobbyist that will probably last longer than it's shelf life...
To start servicing watches, bare minimum including oils will set you back at least $500 to get the proper tools and even swap out some cheaper tools where possible instead of the premium ones, but to have pretty much everything you need. $1000 easily. Remember you need cleaning supplies, timegrapher, and basic tools, etc...Oils are expensive but those three or four bottles at about $150 will last you for well over a thousand services. You could get away with one oil and one grease but it's not advisable for quality servicing. I see this channel has watched Alex from Watch Repair Tutorials on "Watch Lubrication for Beginners" This video is spot on, but if you feel you want a detailed explantion. thats another good video.
I stripped off as much oil as possible off-camera, so not much was wasted. You could also use a screwdriver to transfer oil that way. Just make sure to keep everything clean and don’t contaminate the oil in the jar.
I’m not saying that you’re not right but it’s too expensive for the hobby and I asked a few of my friends the service watches and they told me they don’t pay attention to that he just require expiration date for selling is synthetic not organic

5:52 Thats why i leave my 9415 in the jar probably wasted 3X what you put in the tray 😕

6:06 This is so wasteful... looks like more oil ends up on the tweezers than in the oil pot. Is there a better way to dispense oil into the oil pot?

Is D5 about the same type of oil like 9415? Where you use it on metal to metal.
No! D5 is much thicker oil used for high torque areas
