This video embodies the whole reason why I have followed you all these years. I've commented many times on how I've loved the best of your videos when I hear your gentle voice guiding your children. And now here they are, working with you. Stay safe and I look forward to more of your father and son(s) videos. 🙂
Arguably, one of the most sublime yet profound moments in a Fathers life is saying to his son, “Go on then”. It’s an unspoken transpose of “ I’m right here and got your back “ There is no video on the YT that contains such poetic content encased in a real world demonstration of watch restoration. 1 of 1 scores 10 out of 10 and a star is born ⭐️ Be well Joe and thanks ❤
I am a retired Dentist from many years ago. We had to cast and polish our inlays and crowns ourselves. Watching you polish these watches brings back good memories and gives me a warm feeling. I also love to hear you speaking with your son. He seems a sweet and beautiful young man.
As I sit here with tears rolling down my face and remembering my father and all he showed me,as God took him way to young .I remember his words ..”treat how you would want to be treated”
Mine too. My Pops had "golden hands" and could fix anything. He did his best to pass it all onto me. I treasured our relationship, he too passed way too soon.
I like when you told your son (about putting a bit of oil on the wheels) hey you’re not oiling the car 😂😂😂you are a beautiful father Joe. Love your content and humor 🇺🇸
Joe, what I love the most about this video is your patience and loving direction you give to Trouble. He is lucky to have a dad like you. Train up a child in the way that he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it. Blessings to you both.
You Sir, are a treasure to watch. No pun intended. You're teaching skills are commendable as are your parenting ones. The world needs more men like you. Cheers.
More than the father son aspect, i found this video gut wrenching. I couldn't stop thinking about the lives lost, the memories that cannot be made, the lessons parents can no longer teach their children. Palestine will be free, my friends. For all that is right in this world, for all the darkness, there will be light.
The Nekkid Watchmaker is quite the philosopher. He always makes me feel better about life and reminds me that it's only temporary (ending video remarks). Four years have gone by fast.
What a lovely video - well done to Trouble in particular and well done to dad for being so patient ! This is a little donation all the way from Australia for Trouble in recognition of his excellent watch servicing skills!
Thanks again. Glad to see how your children are preparing to learn from your skills. Thank you for trying to name the unnameable madness that is happening to children for 8 months now.
A big high five to Trouble and Germ, you have a great dad. Thank you so very much for reminding me of my time working with my dad as a decorator. He was the boss and pushed me but so much fun. Thank you
You’re a wonderful person, husband, father and Horologist. I’m so impressed and inspired by teaching your son and your audience. Your Grace, patience and skill are outstanding. The world should take notice. I have. Peace unto you and yours Howard
My favorite watchmaker working on my favorite brand and involving the next generation. WOW! Could have made a dog's dinner of it. But instead it was awesome!
I love how you just drop deep philosophical points into the end of your videos. You really do have a way with words and the world would be a much better place if more people shared your views.
Respect to you my friend, what a great thing to do and Trouble certainly has absorbed your skill and knowledge. You'll soon be the one watching on. Another beautiful restoration as usual.
Oh fabulous. Just what the doctor ordered, another VT from my favourite watch tinkerer. Looking forward to watching this in about 30 minutes time, thank you Joe. ❤❤❤❤
OMG, this is just too cute! "I'm going to remove the canon pinion" - that's not a future watchmaker...that's a future TH-camr you have on your hands there! Seriously, I haven't smiled as much as when watching this for ages!
Well done trouble! It's brilliant to see your skills for such a young man. I was still eating mud at that age. And well done to you too, Joe. Not only are you a master watch maker, you are a wonderful dad. It was really good to see you both interacting on this video. Thank you.
What a wonderful and sentimental episode. I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge with your children. As an educator, I think that it’s incredibly important that we not let our skills die with us. We spend a lot of time and energy mastering our crafts. To leave the world without passing that knowledge on would be a great injustice to future generations.
Man, I have thoroughly enjoyed all your videos (and philosophising) but this one was absolutely fantastic ! If your kids enjoyed helping you a fraction as much as I enjoyed watching then they will be hooked on horology for life. Best wishes to you and your family.
Right now he's a chip off the ole block. Will grow up with expertise that cannot be found in textbooks and good memories with his Dad. I love these videos
Awesome that he's following in his dad's footsteps. Nothing should make a father more proud. Congratulations to you and great job in instructing them. Peace and blessings to you.
Trouble may find his own interests and passions. And take his own path as he gets older. But what you have taught him in watchmaking..... And most importantly in character..... Will make him a true asset and kind-hearted influence to EVERYONE in his life.
Beautiful restoration. Your son (Trouble) knows a hell of lot more than me. Given that his father is an expert in this trade, he is also an excellent teacher.
We watch your videos in our watch shop in Valdese, NC. Our customers often become captivated with your videos and stay a while longer and enjoy our free popcorn. It’s so nice to see you pass our dying art along to your son! He is very smart and will make a fine watchmaker! We’re always commenting on what a great father you are to patiently and lovingly impart your knowledge and have a little fun along the way. Your kids will have the best memories of their childhood!
Magnificent job! Much kudos to your son - not only knew all the names of the multitudinous parts but where they fit and in which order - absolutely amazing! Good for you for teaching him so well. And the little banana wielding guy too who did not lose a single part? Wonderful! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Warmed the cockles of my heart to see you passing on your skills to your clever boys. Have also learned the importance of holding a banana when undertaking fiddly tasks.
I taught my son how to use a sewing machine when he was a teenager and now he's pushing 40 and still uses the old clunker I gave him to sew and repair things. Even small things you teach your children can lead to lifelong use of those skills and you can be happy in your dotage (I'm 71) that your child benefited from your tutelage. Good for you doing this!!
Well done Trouble! What a great memory you have to remember all the names of the parts. And 'well done' Dad for your calm and gentle (on camera at least!) voice.
Seeing Mr. Trouble working on this beautiful watch gives me hope for the future of this world. Clearly, he has been closely observing you as you work on watches and he's learned a lot. I really enjoyed this video. Thanks for bringing us along.
Wow. Massive respect to both of you. Joe, you have a wonderful son and willing apprentice. You are a great teacher and I’m amazed that Trouble knew so much.
Thoroughly enjoyed this. Thank you for being a father gently and firmly while showing how to laugh at yourself by getting and giving a bit of stick. Bravo!
Absolutely brilliant to see you both loving life together. Thank you for sharing it with us, what a great Father & son moment to treasure for ever sir 🤝
Excellent stuff, loved it when you said to Trouble - are you filling up a car - and just throw it in 😆 How lovely passing on your knowledge to your son.
Joe, if your dear son learns only half of your skills he will be a fine watchmaker and restorer. With luck, and patience, if you can pass on all of your skills he will be a truly great one. Yours has to be one of the most satisfying of crafts to learn and practice. Let us hope it becomes your son's passion also.
It’s great to see a father passing on his knowledge to his son.
I agree.
The internal number is a global helpline to report child Labour! Only kidding..! Superb to see just how easy watch tinkering is. Child’s play..
Keep it up, trouble.
It's also great to see the son listening and respecting his father! I wish my grandkids were so well behaved.
Great video, wonderful teaching
The child's first teacher is the parent! Well done!🎉
Blessings to you & your family!
Take care and be well!
Sandy from the States.

Teaching the next generation. I hope my sons will be watching your sons do this 25 years from now.

❤
Bravo to you Joe. You've taught Trouble a heckuva lot more than how to restore a watch. And it really shows.
A father teaching a son. A son honouring his father. A greatful audience remembering their own father's. Tears.
Strong families build stronger communities and that's something needed everywhere. Bravo Trouble & Co.
Apples don't fall far from the tree do they? Fixing a watch with his old dad will be a treasured memory.
I am a retired Dentist from many years ago. We had to cast and polish our inlays and crowns ourselves. Watching you polish these watches brings back good
memories and gives me a warm feeling.
I also love to hear you speaking with your son. He seems a sweet and beautiful young man.
Just had a scary thought of you letting a 10 year old loose on someone’s teeth :)
As I sit here with tears rolling down my face and remembering my father and all he showed me,as God took him way to young .I remember his words ..”treat how you would want to be treated”
Mine too. My Pops had "golden hands" and could fix anything. He did his best to pass it all onto me. I treasured our relationship, he too passed way too soon.
Nothing better or more satisfying than being able to pass on a skilled trade to your children.
Joe!, you Bloody bellend! You just made me want to have Kids! You're just the father i wish i could have. Blessings to the Nekkid Fam!
Trouble has some very good fine motor skills for a 10 year old ⌚🏅
I like when you told your son (about putting a bit of oil on the wheels) hey you’re not oiling the car 😂😂😂you are a beautiful father Joe. Love your content and humor 🇺🇸
Joe, what I love the most about this video is your patience and loving direction you give to Trouble. He is lucky to have a dad like you. Train up a child in the way that he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it. Blessings to you both.
Amazing to see a young person who knows the names of all those parts and how they work together to make a watch.
This is truly heart-warming... great parenting.
You Sir, are a treasure to watch. No pun intended. You're teaching skills are commendable as are your parenting ones. The world needs more men like you. Cheers.

Nekkid watchmaker jr. The future is secured! 🙏
Very well done sir. If everyone invested the time you do in the next generation, the world would transform into a better place for all.
This is the very definition of a guild: fathers teaching sons.
...the son of a master is going to become a master himself...well done Nekkid junior 👍
What a lovely video - well done to Trouble in particular and well done to dad for being so patient ! This is a little donation all the way from Australia for Trouble in recognition of his excellent watch servicing skills!
Thanks again.
Glad to see how your children are preparing to learn from your skills.
Thank you for trying to name the unnameable madness that is happening to children for 8 months now.
Me Nakid Watchmaker, I am so ery proud of you and Trouble, you are what God had in mind for givinf us children. Great job, my dear friends!
A big high five to Trouble and Germ, you have a great dad. Thank you so very much for reminding me of my time working with my dad as a decorator. He was the boss and pushed me but so much fun. Thank you
Well done Trouble! 💪🏼 Joe, thank you for your inspirational work and words. Blessings to you and yours.
10 years old and he has picked all this up from his Dad, smashing video and proud to be a Nekkid revolutionary!
You’re a wonderful person, husband, father and Horologist. I’m so impressed and inspired by teaching your son and your audience.
Your Grace, patience and skill are outstanding. The world should take notice. I have.
Peace unto you and yours
Howard
Well done to trouble, please tell him that as a complete novice he could teach me a thing or two. Beautiful and heartwarming as always.
It was so good to see that your son had learnt so much from watching you.
It was a real pleasure to see Dad and Son working so well together.
My favorite watchmaker working on my favorite brand and involving the next generation.
WOW!
Could have made a dog's dinner of it. But instead it was awesome!

Your father could not have done better himself! Great job on a beautiful little watch🥰
Oh fabulous. Just what the doctor ordered, another VT from my favourite watch tinkerer. Looking forward to watching this in about 30 minutes time, thank you Joe. ❤❤❤❤
OMG, this is just too cute! "I'm going to remove the canon pinion" - that's not a future watchmaker...that's a future TH-camr you have on your hands there! Seriously, I haven't smiled as much as when watching this for ages!
Wow what a beautiful video. The knowledge you are passing on to your son is remarkable. You are so patient with him. ❤
One word describes this video "beautiful" Thank you for letting us all be part of it.
Well done trouble! It's brilliant to see your skills for such a young man. I was still eating mud at that age. And well done to you too, Joe. Not only are you a master watch maker, you are a wonderful dad. It was really good to see you both interacting on this video. Thank you.

To leave the world without passing that knowledge on would be a great injustice to future generations.
I feel happiness in the thought that when the master retires (in a future far, far away), the apprentice(s) will move on with this channel.
Your best restoration for obvious reasons. You and your family are the best!
Trouble must surely hold the world record (Guinness?) for youngest TH-cam trainee Horologist🎉 good to see him learning.
Awesome to have you all back! 😊❤
Man, I have thoroughly enjoyed all your videos (and philosophising) but this one was absolutely fantastic !
If your kids enjoyed helping you a fraction as much as I enjoyed watching then they will be hooked on horology for life.
Best wishes to you and your family.
I own a 23Z longines and I am so happy to see it another one in such capable young hands! This was a wonderful video, thank you for sharing this!
Right now he's a chip off the ole block. Will grow up with expertise that cannot be found in textbooks and good memories with his Dad. I love these videos
Awesome that he's following in his dad's footsteps. Nothing should make a father more proud. Congratulations to you and great job in instructing them. Peace and blessings to you.

But what you have taught him in watchmaking..... And most importantly in character..... Will make him a true asset and kind-hearted influence to EVERYONE in his life.
What a Beautiful watch. So nice to see you teaching your son your expert skills. Thanks for your always inspiring words.
Beautiful restoration. Your son (Trouble) knows a hell of lot more than me. Given that his father is an expert in this trade, he is also an excellent teacher.
Joe and Trouble!! Thank you
Father and son team doing a wonderful job. Absolutely marvelous. Well done, Junior.

What a lucky watch-to be touched by angelic hands guided by a master.
What a lovely video of a father teaching his son a very rare skill. Thanks you for your videos.
I’m so very proud of you as a father and mentor. Trouble is an excellent student and clearly Germ also has some mad skills. ❤🇨🇦
Getting paid a tenner for this kind of training might be the best bargain ever. Wonderful video
Love to see Trouble getting in on the act, even with the heavy breathing. 😅
Peace, love, and easy breathing!
God bless the Father who values the time spent with his sons.
Warmed the cockles of my heart to see you passing on your skills to your clever boys. Have also learned the importance of holding a banana when undertaking fiddly tasks.
Outstanding work young man!!
RIP Hind 😥😥❤️
I love it. Obviously you were a very good teacher to your son.
I taught my son how to use a sewing machine when he was a teenager and now he's pushing 40 and still uses the old clunker I gave him to sew and repair things. Even small things you teach your children can lead to lifelong use of those skills and you can be happy in your dotage (I'm 71) that your child benefited from your tutelage. Good for you doing this!!
Well done Trouble! What a great memory you have to remember all the names of the parts. And 'well done' Dad for your calm and gentle (on camera at least!) voice.
Wonderful to know that the skills of today and yesteryear
are being passed on to the Masters of the future❤
by far the beast content i have ever watched - love your work but love your sons work even better - from one dad to another - you area legend
Your posts always move me. This one in particular. Thank you.
Can you hear the applause here from Cape Town South Africa? You certainly deserve it.
Seeing Mr. Trouble working on this beautiful watch gives me hope for the future of this world.
Clearly, he has been closely observing you as you work on watches and he's learned a lot.
I really enjoyed this video. Thanks for bringing us along.
Wow. Massive respect to both of you. Joe, you have a wonderful son and willing apprentice. You are a great teacher and I’m amazed that Trouble knew so much.
Wow Trouble!!! Now I'm a fan of you too.
“Trouble” is a privileged to have such a father.
I hope you keep this watch as a keepsake for Mr. Trouble and memory of your working together.
GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY...TELL TROBLE HELLO AND THE HOLD FAMILY...THX YOU...
What a wonderfull work of father and son. Blessed with a skillfull and passionate father and a son ready to join in his footsteps. Thank you.
God has blessed you both. Love always.
Thoroughly enjoyed this. Thank you for being a father gently and firmly while showing how to laugh at yourself by getting and giving a bit of stick. Bravo!
Peace, love and you keeping the right path teaching your son! G'd bless you!
Great show I always like the end monologue and it's good to see trouble getting involved
It’s not only teaching a son, it’s being so humane!
Great tuition Joe to pass on your amazing talents to your son. A beautiful watch!
Best one, yet!!! Amazing young man and awesome father
Bringing back fond memories of weekend projects with my pops!
So happy to hear troubles voice again! I hope he's in good health and happy! Best wishes to you and your family!??
Great job TROUBLE, like father like son...
like father like son .... stronger communication... God bless you and all the family
I’m a electrician, and my father taught me the trade. This is great that he takes an interest and wants to learn. Well done.
Absolutely brilliant to see you both loving life together.
Thank you for sharing it with us, what a great Father & son moment to treasure for ever sir 🤝
Excellent stuff, loved it when you said to Trouble - are you filling up a car - and just throw it in 😆 How lovely passing on your knowledge to your son.
Joe, if your dear son learns only half of your skills he will be a fine watchmaker and restorer. With luck, and patience, if you can pass on all of your skills he will be a truly great one. Yours has to be one of the most satisfying of crafts to learn and practice. Let us hope it becomes your son's passion also.
The boy is growing up. This is quite heartwarming.
Trouble barely fits into the finger cots, but he’s already doing a great job. It’s fun to watch Joe pass on his passion to his son.
So cool too see your son learning to continue the work😀
Jo. We'll done! I really love to see a father pass down knowledge.
Always wise words from you.
