Amazing work again! I Discovered your channel right at the beginning and I am amazed by this craftsmanship. I like how you explain what you do in each step. I learned a lot from your videos regarding how a watch works. TY!!❤
That's wonderful! One time a watchmaker tried to buy my father's rare watch for $500 but of course he said no and left the shop. It's so nice that you made someone happy with the real value and history of this marvelous chronograph. 😊
Oh wow. You know what is the best about all? Susanne doesn‘t want to Sell the watch even if its worth that much. She wants to keep it for good memories
I'm watching this with a Lemania 5100 on the wrist haha (Tutima Military Chronograph Ref 798.3). Lemania is definitely my favourite chronograph movement maker, and this one you're working on is such a treat. I also own the Lemania LWO 283, it was a project in collaboration with Lemania and Dubois-Depraz that was heavily funded by Heuer (and had exclusivity for a while, the module eventually ended in stuff like the Royal Oak Offshore from the 90s). Glad TH-cam recommended me this video this morning! I'm now subscribed.
Thank you! This was my first Lemania and I was really pleased how everything worked out! Maybe I will have the pleasure to work on an 5100 in the Future! This would be Great
Great video, and awesome job, a joy to watch. Wow that watch was dirty. Your video gave me a lot of inspiration to get started on servicing my own vintage chronograph watch i purchased a while back, guess it depends on the watchmaker, I was tought to let the watch dry run for 20 min before oiling the pallet stones though 🙂👍
Impressed by your work here. The videography is excellent, with sharp focus in both macro / microscope shots. Then there was your watchmaking workmanship, which was also excellent to a non expert who just enjoys watching such videos. On top of all that its a more complex chronograph movement. Well done! Subscribed and looking forward to watching more of your videos.
I like to think of myself as skilled, but this guy is a master. 👌 👏 How much to replace my mainspring in a chronograph quarter repeater? I'm scared to touch it 😂
Beautiful watch and excellent work, thank you for sharing! Is one of the columns on the column wheel broken? If so, I suppose everything should still work except one out of eight times chrono buttons need to be pressed twice?
I love it when people pay that much attention! You Are Right. The column was broken (i guess, even if I couldnt find any signs of a broken column under the microscope) from the beginning. Sadly this movement is so rare you hardly find spare parts… so every 16th time you are pushing the chrono start/stop Button you have to push twice. I think thats ok. Hats off to your close attention to detail!
Loved every minuet of that, quite intense watching the watch going back together knowing it's value and rarity. Superb movement and a great job, cheers Uhren.
Can you use a soft brush to help clean the movement plate? Or is that corrosion damage? It always looks like dust that’s been there for a long time and won’t come off without a little mechanical scrubbing.
Great job! And I'm glad you didn't try to adjust the beat error. Remember the old Red/Green saying.. "If it ain't broke, you're not trying!" 5 secs a day.. it'll be our secret! Well, us and the 45K viewers. 🤫
One of the methods I use for putting the click in place is when after the spring is installed, I put the click in place and then its screw but only turn it in a few threads, This allows the click to move vertically along the screws axis just enough to lift it up and slide the spring into place. I tighten the click screw once the spring is located.
Hello, yeah I wrote it by myself. Sadly at that time I did not make any Videos otherwise I would surely have made a video about this Restoration that took me quite a while! Thanks and cheers!
😅 Mostly I remember the positions and if you have a close look there is mostly only one combination everything fits together. But I have the big advantage of filming. When starting with watches I just took photos using my smartphone! Wish you all the best
I enjoyed watching your work, but afterwards, I wondered why you didn't adjust the oscillations in the clock. It was too fast in their speed, so it had to be adjusted to near the neutral (i.e. the zero point). But you can always be wiser afterwards - and you don't have to hear anything about that. I wish you good luck with your next project.
Okay! I'm trying to explain it! Inside the clock, there is a function where you can adjust the speed of the oscillations. The stylus can adjust this function from F (fast) to S (slow). Hope that helps give you the answer. Otherwise, give it one more comment.@@UhrenDantler
@@petertrier2746 look at 47:20 its pretty good. There is no fast oscilations… the timegrapher video recording is just speed up. I think that confused you. Sorry I thought its clean that this is a timelapse. Maybe I should Write it down below. Thanks for the hint! All the best
If you go back a minute (46:19 - 46:24) in the footage where you are finishing the back of the movement and where you have the "pointer (S/R - F/A)" I referred to last time. Then it is the one you should have moved to fit with 3 lines on each side respectively for slow and fast rotations (I probably used the word oscillations before). I hope all this makes sense to you, and I'm not trying to criticize you in any way.@@UhrenDantler
@@petertrier2746 hello, no worries I don‘t feel critizised. All good. The „Pointer“ as you call it is the regulator and it does not have to be in the middle. It is for regulating. So everythings fine there :)
why not have talk over it is so hard to watch what is going on and trying to read the captions. Sadly I find other channels more interesting as I am just a novice and enjoy the skills you all have.
How about doing a commetary on what you are doing both taking it apart and then back together again. I can hear the sounds from your bench, now add your voice to the mix!!
Sorry but I stopped the video after 30 seconds when I realized that you shamelessly copied the Wristwatch Revival thumbnail style to lure people into your channel. That’s low, man. If your content is really interesting, create your own identity instead of trying to piggyback on someone else’s.

@@awkward2092 Come on ! A little intellectual honesty please ! The title on a grey box with white all-caps text is a blatant attempt to make people think this is a new video from Wristwatch Revival. Don’t try to make it look like it is just a coincidence ! If the composition of the thumbnail was just a tiny bit different, replacing the grey by another color for example, I wouldn’t have said a word (certainly because I wouldn’t have clicked on it by mistake in the first place). There are plenty of other watchmaking channels that bothered to create their own original design principle for their channel without copying so obviously the style of others. The worst part is that the content of this channel may indeed be original and interesting, but this channel is making itself a disservice by trying to look like a lame knockoff of another channel. I can understand the need for a new TH-cam channel to try to generate clicks, but piggybacking like this is ethically wrong and awkward at best. You can argue all you want that legally it can’t be attacked (I doubt that the guy from Wristwatch Revival would bother complaining about this), but this is dishonest commercial practice and puts doubt on the overall honesty and professionalism of the person(s) behind it. If the content in itself is good and honest, I urge the owner of this channel to promote it in a less questionable manner and to find his own way of getting views rather than doing the lazy copycat thing.
@@yannsalmon2988 Its your opinion and I have read it. I really respect it. I didnt want to misguide anybody. I really thought this thumbnail would look good.

As dirty as it was it must have never been serviced before. Beautifully designed watch.
There were several watchmaker marks in it. So I guess it has been serviced. Dont forget its 100 years old
🙏👍กดติดตามแล้วนะครับ✌️✌️
Dang how many times did you smack the movement with the watch back lol
Sorry what?
Why so much areas of the watch you leave it without oil? I saw the mainspring no having any oil, and the winding click.
@@OscarRPalma I haven‘t filmed every step. Sorry. But everything was oiled (the mainspring too)

Omega 33.3, Tissot has a watch with this movement.
My favourite part was when he said 'It's Chrono Time.'
Its getting serious there!
I really enjoyed watching but at 47:00 I was worried you'd left a lot of small hairs/dust under the glass.
Luckily it‘s on the outside 😅
@@UhrenDantler Thank God for that. I was wondering lol
So many screws in this movement. No wonder they needed 5 watchmakers on it.
