There are many channels that have "servicing and cleaning" a movement. But this repair was just amazing.
Thanks a lot!! Trying my best to showcase interesting repairs and projects. Really appreciate the compliment!
We’ll done Fabio! Loved your precison and your chill demeanor. Last 20 minutes of the video were nice to see both your hands and face/eyes working in tandem! Loved it!
Thanks a bunch! Glad you enjoyed the work!
Life saver, very generous of you to share your knowledge with such a detailed and informative video. Good karma coming your way, my friend.
Thank you!! Glad video helped!
Wildcat logo? Do you live here? Or alumni? I live about 20 min from campus.
Hi, I live in Tucson.@@SergioPena20
Great job. thanks for the tips. 👍👍
Thank you
Excellent video. I've learned a lot. All the best.
Awesome!! Thank you! All the best and more to come.
i wish i could that. thanks for sharing this it was awsome
If I can do it you can do it.
Thanks, Fabio. I was riveted through the entire hour (no pun intended). I picked up some awesome tips, as always. Having destroyed more than my share of balance springs, I can assure you I was on the edge of my recliner the entire time. You may be the Alfred Hitchcock of watchmaking videos! Please keep them coming, you are very much appreciated.
Lol, I had a feeling you would like this one!
Great video! I'm a total amateur watchmaker (and also RUclipsr). I keep looking for answers about specific repairs on RUclips and your channel keeps coming up! So thanks for making such relevant videos! When I finally attempt my own balance staff repair I'll credit you and provide a link back to this video.
Ohh Man Thanks!! I’m relatively new on RUclips but, I really enjoy it. Keep going with your channel! I’m a subscriber.
Hi Fabio, great work going on you would have to be the most chilled watchmaker I’ve seen. Keep well from New Zealand 🇳🇿
Thanks brother!
No cats were harmed during the making of this tutorial the cat gave its whisker up without any duress! Lmao sorry mate I couldn’t help myself, I’ll close the door on my way out. 🤣🤣🤣😉👏👍🙏
Luckily the cats shed their whiskers lol 😂
Its not easy to do like this as a watch technician, thanks sir perhaps more people like your talent so amazing.
I’m very pleased that I’m getting so many positive responses. Thank you so much
I'm curious, why you mentioned watch technician, not many people would say that, love to know your thoughts and opinion on that.
@@watchmakerspecial516 I use the term “Technician” as well interchangeably with “watchmaker” my reasoning behind that is because, although I consider myself a watchmaker from graduating a watchmaking school where we learned to manufacture and create parts for watches the job we do at a service repair shop is more like replacing parts and adjusting. So sometimes it feel more appropriate to use the term technician the watchmaker because we’re not actually making anything we’re just repairing, replacing, refinishing and adjusting. Not saying that it’s easier both aspects of manufacturing the watch and doing service maintenance is very incredibly involved. As I’m sure you already know. Cheers! and thanks for continuing the dialogue.
muy buen video!
Let's gooooo Fabio~~~~
Boom 🤯
Great video and thanks for the really good tutorial one of the best i have seen on RUclips for this topic.
Thanks a lot for the compliment. Trying to keep it real.
Thanks for kind work..
You did it very easy... You have a amazing talent to do this gently
Thanks I was really happy with the way it turned out!
Awesome job! Thanks man for a well explained video!
Thanks 🙏 I got a lot of feed back from this on Facebook. And rightfully so. This is a very specific Rolex method. Using the Horia tool to break the balance out is very risky with other brands. It works well with Rolex because the steel of the staff is so brittle and the balance rim is so strong and flexible. Also marking the position of the roller and hairspring stud is a good reference but, if the parts are in the wrong place to begin with than it’s good to know how to orient the wheel without any outside reference. I’ve been meaning to make a balance staff video with a different watch just need to find another brand of watch with broken balance staff.
Great, great work and video. Thank's man.
Thank you! Happy you enjoyed it!
Good job 👍
Wow! Thanks
Well done, my greetings .
Thanks a lot. Taking some of your advice for more close up images of the work.
I would like to fix the balance of my rolex rolex 1500 it seems to have problems I am from Puerto Rico
You can do it
your work very nice.....i have quastion sir , i have 1570 movement call , its fast running , im try to adjest it but it countiue fast running... did you have any aedia....thanks advance
It’s hard to assess without seeing the watch. If the movement is fully serviced and your trying to slow down the watch correctly with the micro Stella screws which are located on the inside of the balance wheel then just keep screwing them outwards. This should work assuming everything is cleaned piled and double checked correctly. But, if this is not slowing down the watch there is probably something overlooked that is causing the problem. The movement must be checked methodically as it is disassembled. Are you serving the movement yourself or just adjusting the timing?
What was the cutting tool you used when poising? Drill? Broach?
Gotta say, amazing job. From the customer’s perspective, they’ll never know the attention to detail and care you took…
It’s a small drill for poising correct
Ooo what is this special tool…?
“This is cat whisker on a stick” lol
Very special
