In this restoration of a gold Seiko watch I restore a Russian family heirloom. Sent to me by my good friend Lana this watch was just about still working when I received it and pretty beat up. Svetlana wants to wear it herself and requested that I sort it out and put on a "lovely bright pink strap". Mission accepted.

Love how classic men’s watches easily make the transformation to modern watch for anyone.
Hi Frank ... this is so true. A nice 34m Oyster Perpetual looks great on a lady too! Good to hear from you sir! Richard
I also took over the Seiko watch from my father. It has a simple design and works for a long time without breakage ! I hope she will live a wonderful life together with a reborn beautiful watch! Your fans from 🇯🇵
Great music 🎶 at the 12 o'clock!!!
I'm a big fan of Seiko watches. Your video was fantastic, thanks
Yhank you so much Stephen! Richard
What a fabulous service to a great looking Seiko.. Love the face and the new strap looks great .. The owner will be proud to wear her grandfathers watch.. I would. Excellent job once again.. Kudos to you ..!!
Lovely restoration, Richard. Glad you could rescue it for your client - I hope she was happy.
Beautiful work. I am sure the owner was extremely pleased with how it was repaired. Bravo.
Your efforts to learn Japanese provide a nice decoration for your desk while repairing this Seiko watch. Also I'm surprised how well pink and gold go together.
It has revived wonderfully. I am Japanese. Seiko is a great watch. I use a 1971 Vintage Grand Seiko. It is amazing that it can still be used without problems 😉👍
в России тоже любят Seiko
Yep Jackdaws looking for shiny things to spirit away, Their mate is always with them, always together, extremely intelligent.
Lovely watch, nice work. Good luck the beautiful classy dial wasn’t damaged. Thank you for posting!
Thanks Angelino ... That's exacty what I though when I took of the crystal! Thanks for the feedback. Richard
Watching your videos makes me wish I possessed the surgeon like skill you employ in your restoration work . It's certainly is an art to what you do.
Hi Sir good beautiful job. what I like more is that you have given this beautiful old classic watch a new life
Beautiful old watch. It looks like it was worn a lot in the past and now hopefully a lot in the future. The pink does suit it after all!
Hi Peter ... I agree. I think bright pink was an inspired choice! Good to hear from you sir! Richard

Nice work, Richard. It is indeed fortunate the lovely dial wasn't damaged! Svetlana should be appreciative, I should imagine.
Я искренне рад за свою соотечественницу,желаю ей и мастеру маэстро всех благ земных
Thanks for sharing another great video. Such a beautiful watch, I am glad to see a vintage Seiko get some love.
Hi Gary... Vintage Seiko are just so classy i figure so very pleased that you appreciated this offering! Thank you so much! Richard
Otro reloj vuelto a la vida gracias al buen hacer de un gran relojero como tú, Richard. Muchas gracias por otro vídeo donde disfrutamos tanto viendo tu extraordinario trabajo!!!.
¡Eloy! ¡Es bueno tener noticias de su señor! ¡Muchas gracias por sus comentarios y su apoyo! ¡Es muy apreciado! Ricardo
I enjoyed every single minute of this restoration and the final result is excellent. Congratulations Richard, you are a truly watchmaker. Many thanks for sharing.
Very nice to vet feedback like this Nacho! Thank you so much. Much appreciated. Richard
Incredibly satisfying to see a beautiful watch restored like this 👍
I think you have a wonderful job, and hearing the sounds of the sea, well, not a bad place to work I’m sure!
Why do I have the feeling that making Svetlana happy will make you quite happy too?)
As always great to see your skills Richard.
Take care
Hi Yasha V..... Not sure of the Shetland link here, I guesd thats a typo.. But a happy Lana is good for everyone for sure! Great to hear from you. Richard

Stupid auto fill
Corrected the original
Simply beautiful!
That Deployment Buckle was a nice touch! 👍
There are many YT watch repair channels, but only one with its own chorus of jackdaws! Thanks Richard, keep up the great work!
Hi David ... Haha! If I win the lottery it will be a chorus of Sulphur Crest Cockatoos and the sound of the Caribbean sea crashing on the sun kissed rocks! Nice one sir! Richard
What a handsome watch! Good job.
Who could refuse Svetlana?
Haha! Who indeed? It turned out nicely didn't it? Richard
Hi Richard, WHERE IS THE JAEGER ! I'm joking 🤣. I really want to see the results. You have done a nice job this time.
Wow now that’s a great result. Love those old Seiko’s.
Thanks Pasquale! Richard
The "magic lever" automatic winding system was way ahead of its time in, what, the late 1950s when it came out? Very clever. Simple and reliable.
Lovely job.
You brought this beauty back to life!
Thanks Richard for this great restoration video and a great story. This is the amazing thing about watches, the legacy carries on… thanks to you 👍👍
Thanks so much Nick. Good to hear from you! Richard
Now we know what came before the 7S26. Interesting video .
And no plastic parts in the 7625! Thanks Phil! Richard
A very fine watch repairer, he knows his watches a pleasure to see.

Richard, I'm addicted to ur channel! Bingeing on all your vids. 👍
Her voice was so alluring. It has an ability to haunt your will power. If the photos at the start of this episode were genuine; this is a woman you can't say no to. Now that I think about it, there aren't many girls who would say no to her either. Well executed as usual, Richard. Please stay safe during this ever-mutating scourge. Cheers!
Como siempre, realizando usted un impecable y maravilloso trabajo. Admiro su profesionalismo y dedicación al bello arte de la relojería.
Las fotos en macro que hace son espectaculares.
Le estaría muy agradecido si colocada siempre subtítulos a español en todos sus videos.
Un abrazo
Wow!! Wonderfull!!👏👏👏👏

Thanks so much John! Richard

Una gran obra de ingeniería en 3 cms cuadrados y usted la revive de una manera increible, es un maestro, mi enhorabuena 👍
the art of giving life to time.
Richard ! You‘re the One !
Love your videos, which together with the vids of the „Nekkid Watchmaker“ and „Wristwatch Revival“ got me started for this magnificent passion.
I always will be grateful for learning from you, and the Otero 844 caliber from my father’s Pallas watch, which is now running again (after nearly 40 years) as well, even if it is only a low budget watch. Thank you !!!
Hi

Hi Alvin! Greetings to you in The Philippines from Wales sir! Thanks for the support. Much appreciated. Richard
Great work. I'm sure she will be happy with it. These old Japanese movements aren't much to look at, but darn they are well built.
Awesome
I always enjoy your video's Richard..I would have loved to see the lady's reaction when she got her watch back...
Hi HayBob! Very pleased you enjoy my stuff. I think she will be chuffed at least. Richard
Well you have definately earned a "Like" for this Richard, such craftman's skills on display, also a pint of your choice if you get oop north. 👍😀👍
Hi Ricky ....Haha! I would so like a nice pint in an English pub oop north. I will hold you to that sir! Richard
Lovely job. Intrigued by the story behind your Russian friend.... Nice looking watch - very like an Omega from m the same era. Thanks for posting.
Hi Chris... It turn out nicely didn't it? Good to hear from you sir! Richard
Wow, well done Richard, as per usual 😳👍.
Thanks John! Richard
master craftsman.
Thanks David! Richard
This is the first one of your videos on the restoration of watches, that I have watched with interest and minutely.
All the more I am extremely curious to know as to how many small little tiny parts/components an Automatic watch ⌚ has for it to function so smoothly.
I would be immensely thankful to know my query Mr. Watch Surgeon.
Great job Richard. Nice transformation.
Hi John ... it did turn out all right didn't it! Better than even I had hoped. Thanks for the feedback. Richard
