    This video has saved my young watchmaking career and my pride. I've worked on antique pocket watches and decided to dive into this very movement as my first worst watch. This was not a smart move on my part, lol. Every single thing I've been struggling with was touched on perfectly in this series! Thanks again sir!

      I am pleased this has helped as these are some of my older videos . Good that YT is still feeding them to viewers.

    Incredible series of videos. Never thought of ever doing this prior. I thought carburators were detailed... Thanks for sharing your generous wealth of knowledge.

    An excellent and highly informative video sir ! I am using this to take apart my first 6309 (non working) movement. Now to Part 2. Thanks again for this.

    hi there, thanks for these vids, with your help I have just stripped cleaned and got one of these ticking, (big moment when I got the balance in) it will never keep time as the bearing on the main bridge is badly worn, but it ticks away happily and im a happy man! thanks again for your super detailed vid.

    Just getting involved in this watch repair hobby. Have bought the basic tools but have learned that I need a 2.5mm screwdriver (blue) to remove a rotor - waiting for Amazon to deliver it today. Also have bought the Cousins screwdriver sharpener as my screwdrivers aren’t sharp enough.

    • @MyRetroWatches
      @MyRetroWatches  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You need a half decent set of drivers and my main advise is to buy some good tweezers. I only use Dumont and had the same pair for years HItec Dumont size 00. Sharpening blades is a whole other skill. I tend to buy cheaper ends from Cousins and just bin them rather than sharpen. Probably not the best approach!

    Thanks so much for this series, I'm learning a lot! And it'll help me avoid spending a ton of money on tools I don't need for just tinkering around.

      Going to see if I can do a teardown and rebuild with a bit of a junker sometime soon. We'll see how it goes! Have you ever done rebuilds of the extra complicated movements? Like chronographs or the bellmatic?

    • @MyRetroWatches
      @MyRetroWatches  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I have only stuck to the more basic movements so far.

    My second attempt at rebuilding one of these has begun with this video, instead of trying to wing it like my first attempt.

    Interesting how you have changed over the 4 years. Going from kitchen table / torn paper dial protector to work bench and proper tools. Just noticed while watching this older video.

    I've just disassembled this movement and will clean it and reassemble it tomorrow. I was wondering why it was so familiar .... I'd watched this video a couple of times lol Also my optivisor arrived today so no more having to have my nose almost touching the movement to see, yay. Thanks for the video, I will have the reassembly one running when I reassemble it tomorrow and hopefully post the final result in group.

    It helps to put your index finger on top of the screwdriver to control the amount of pressure and avoid slippages that scratch the parts

    Hello! I have a question about the Seiko 5, or rather about all wristwatches. What size springs are installed there? So the ones in the spring barrel and on the balance wheel? Can I use the same size springs in every watch? Do you have a link where you can get these cheap? Thank you very much for your informative channel. Greetings Alex

    • @MyRetroWatches
      @MyRetroWatches  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Mainsprings are specific to movement so you have to find the specs of the watch or use parts suppliers to find you one that will fit.
      You can’t buy hairsprings on there own they again are all different and they are harmonically balanced to the wheel so the wheel and spring are as one.
      All movement specific.

    Thanks. Is there any difference between the 6309a with the crown at 4 vs 3 o'clock? I'm searching for a replacement movement at 3

    • @MyRetroWatches
      @MyRetroWatches  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Gwinter452 movement wise they are the same, the day and date discs are specific to the crown position so a 4 won’t show in a 3 window

    • @Gwinter452
      @Gwinter452 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@MyRetroWatches Oh wow, good to know. I originally figured it would align as long as the 4 o'clock crown wasn't at the 3:45 position. Looking at my watch I see a huge gash on the ratchet wheel, so I'm hoping that swapping that out will have it winding better :) thanks
