It Doesn't Get Much More Classic than a 1965 Hamilton A-506

In this video, I service a timeless classic watch, a 1965 Hamilton A-506 for a customer. This stainless steel, time only, beauty will never go out of fashion with its elegant good looks and Swiss made movement under the hood.

Welcome back! Glad to see you posting again!

[@user-pu4fc3sv7d]

Hey, that’s my watch! No, really, that is my actual watch. Thanks for posting this video Josh! You are a true artisan and it is great to see all of the details and hard work that go into your preservations. Your service/ repair is still going strong. This is one of the most accurate automatics I own!

[@WolfeVintageWatches]

Thanks for the kind words and I’m so glad to know your watch is getting its well deserved wrist time!

[@sonik954]

Great video! A little tip, @ 8:10 when you are swinging the "brace" out of the way. A screwdriver tip fits perfectly in the slot there and makes the twisting of the brace out of the way more controlled and simpler.

i love watches

[@home-dp6oh]

I agree, I hate those damned click springs. I finally sourced some and bought 12. I've had those little buggers literally just disappear off the movement. They're so small I don't even bother trying to find them. The other spring I really hate is the date jumper spring on the date models of the same movement. This movement is obviously at least based if not entirely made by ETA. Like moskaahrmarhcr6833 noted. Nice job on the video by the way. Good lighting, great macro shots, overall much better quality than previous videos. All of those things and depth of field are things I struggle with filming videos for my channel so I appreciate the effort you put into your vids. Enjoyed the "Dad jokes" about the "totally legal white powder" and "mobile stud carrier". Looking forward to the next video. Oh, by the way, it's "CANNON" pinion not "CANYON" pinion ;-). Cheers!

[@WolfeVintageWatches]

I totally mispronounced canon pinion on purpose to see who was paying attention closely.

[@Mr_Berlin_James]

Superb video.. as always! Really informative and told with humour too. Thank you for taking the time to produce these. If you did fancy including your cleaning process with ultrasonic I’m sure that would go down well as well.

[@WolfeVintageWatches]

Great suggestion!

[@moskauuhrmacher6833]

Kinda interesting movement. It reminds me 2824 and 2892 both.

[@WolfeVintageWatches]

Indeed. This is the great uncle to those movements.

[@LTC_Tiger]

I have to ask -- why would you add lume to the six o'clock position on the dial and wipe out the "T Swiss T" marking?

[@nicklapietra3890]

I truly hate trying to remove and insert crystals with thise tools!
