I love watching your videos as a rank amateur tinkerer. But it's your commentary that makes it entertaining, and sometimes, touching. Your gentle philosophies and warm regards for everything/everyone take us all out of the noisy world for an hour. Great work.
I received a Grande Reverso Ultrathin 1931 tribute as a wedding gift 8 years ago and it is my most precious watch. It’s absolutely gorgeous. Thanks for this video ❤
I've inherited my mother lecoultre 1930s , non reversible, and have just got it cleaned. I chose the same strap! It's now being used daily after being silent for over 55 years. I am very proud to wear it.
"What do you know?" "You don't know anything." Said EVERY Dad to his son, at one point or another, in one tone or another, many times in both their lives. I love it.
...in our time of mindless consumerism, seeing you revive such a battered masterpiece with such competence, endurance and passion is comforting and mesmerizing, well done!
Joe, the Omega Seamaster Chrono restoration video series was your most epic, but I think that this was the most enjoyable video that you've made yet. Fantastic craftsmanship befitting such an iconic timepiece, but getting out of the shop and seeing a bit of old Birmingham and some of your mates was great. And kudos for keeping your tool envy under control. Btw, it looks like Trouble Too is well on his way to becoming a watch collector. Best wishes to the family and looking forward to the next treat from you.
This was a jubilant crowning timepiece of restoration delivered again by the omniscient curator of timepieces ! The introduction of other parts of the kingdom and artisans added a regal element to your work. Thanks again for the entertainment and showing of your resource and skills. 😊🙏
Your videos are amazing. I love them all. They helped me in my worst of times during my cancer. When I was feeling horrible I'd put one of your videos on to help distract from my pain
This is one of your best videos yet, it's great to see all the skills and resources available in your locality. It's amazing what you can find if you are prepared to look. God bless and best wishes to you all from NZ
Out of all the watch masters on TH-cam you are my most favorite to watch... there is a soothing feel to all your videos and love the relationship with your little one. Amazing videos, thank you.
Just when you think NW videos can't get any better, a new one arrives and it is. Stunning work and amazing to see more new and different restoration methods.
Thank you for showing us not only another impressive restoration, but also a glimpse into the microcosm of superb British craftsmanship that you are a part of and help keep alive. God save the King (and grant him wisdom and kindness)!
As usual, my jaw all the way to the ground. Immaculate, so much effort. Great choice on the bracelet, I was like green naaaa, black total game changer. Blessings from Costa Rica.
Joe, nice job with the out-of-studio recording and editing. It’s MUCH harder than people think and you nailed it. And then to have the watch turn out so well! What a great team effort. Nice to see they appreciate you like we do.
My deepest compliments sir. I about had a heart attack at the sticky hairspring - but you came through as always- calm. Thank you for sharing your skills with us minions
Joe, your attention to detail is beyond words… The in awe moment I get when you have completed your finesse on the these projects is something I cannot thank you enough. I feel as though you get as much enjoyment in your reconstruction as I do to watch… Thank you and I always look for to your next instalment, Cheers from OZ
I've said it before and I'll say it again. You are a true artist Joe. And I really mean it. I'm stunned about this restoration. And the Reverso is my favorite watch too.
Today instead of watching a wrecking ball demolition or restoration of a rusted old gasoline engine, I watched your video. The beauty of your work was only exceeded by the excellence of this video. I was captivated by every minute of it. Thanj you!
What a labor of love Joe. A truly beautiful restoration to a pardon the pun, timeless time piece. A watch fit for a king to give to his queen. I really enjoyed this video Joe. God bless you and yours and God bless the King! Cheers from this old retired coot living the dream across the pond in Tennessee.
That was absolutely amazing! I really enjoyed how you took us to such specialised craftspeople, who were so competent in their work, that nothing phased them. Amazing that they still exist and that they are so skilled as to be able to produce such fine work. An excellent video, as always, and completely mesmerising........... Brilliant!
Loved the road trip and the visits with the machinists. Would love to see more videos with them! The watch turned out amazing. Great work by all involved. 🫡
Amazing! I can’t believe how calming, relaxing and entertaining your vids are. Thank you for your hard work,you really do make anyone feel they can get involved and definitely removed the snobbishness from this fine art. 🔥
I thought the added metal would always be slightly visible, maybe in colour difference, but no, the end result, with the superb laser engraving, was miraculous. You made a wonderful job of a task that looked impossible. 👋👋👋
"...they brushed the part that was supposed to be mirrored, and mirrored the part that was supposed be brushed..." Well it *is* called a "Reverso", so maybe they took up that challenge literally, hee hee
Gotta' love it. I'm a tool and die maker and I've done picky work for tool and die. Finishes are everything but this is exceptional work. Thank you so much for your craftsmanship and artwork. WOW!!!
If only we could find politicians in America with your sense of duty and honor to your work. Always both entertained and enlightened by watching your videos, and it is so great to see a real professional doing what he is both good at and loves.
This video was great! It reminded me to appreciate all those skills we take for granted. We forget that there is always someone somewhere that made something that is special to us, or that we use everyday.
The case service, utilizing laser welding and engraving was very interesting. The spring treatments to resolve the stickiness, showing all of the treatments was great. Sometimes it’s easy, sometimes it’s not. This was one of your watch videos that was particularly interesting. Keep up the great work. Be well. 😊
I doff my hat in awe of your knowledge, skill and patience. Re patience: comparing you to Job, he was a New York City taxi driver on crank. I SO enjoyed watching this!
Amazing work, Joe, simply amazing! When I first saw the watch, I never thought you could make it look like new again. Well done, sir! And I loved the road trip! Loved seeing a part of the world I'll probably never see first-hand. I am constantly astonished at your knowledge and your skill. You are not only a master technician, but a talented artist! Blessings, peace and love on you and yours. Enjoy your new king! Long may he reign!
Joe, I love your videos. Definitely my favorite TH-cam channel. It doesn’t matter how long it takes for you to release a new video, I look forward to watching.
I'd say this was a DIY job by the original owner, doubt it'd ever been serviced. Another beautiful result! Lovely seeing Birmingham again, all the best from Ireland 👍
I love that you always make your videos personal so as to bring not only your impeccable skills but also the heart and soul of your family. Your content at times is like a family show which moves away from the standard watch channels with top down views of everything. Its refreshing and very personable. I must say, you seem extremely relaxed when things go wrong, especially when a hairspring decides to stick together. Most would be pulling their hair out but you just get on with it, irrespective of the additional time. Its calming to watch you work my friend. You obviously have the support of your beautiful young family and wish you great success and happiness. Until we meet again good Sir! All the best from Steve in Scotland
Hi Joe, well after a lean period (hope your family are ok) your back with your best ever. The metal enhancement and etching was utterly fascinating. The depth of your knowledge never ceases to amaze me. Knowing what to do with the balance spring must only come with decades of experience. Not sure you’ve done too much for Birmingham’s tourist figures or fine dining reputation, but the Vallee de Joux will feel threatened. Many thanks !
Amazing video and I loved how you brought new tech into an ancient art. Fun fact: I had a very lovely friend come visit from the USA in early May and we wandered the Jewellery Quarter in the rain while there was a train strike so it was a little bit ghost town but she watched this and was "oh we went there" and "Oh we saw that" Keep up the great vids my friend!
This is a stunning restoration, amazing how the surface can be refilled and smoothed back to original, and the laser etching is perfect, really love watching your watch restoration videos…🤩
Very beautiful restoration. The trip to see your mates helping you was really nice. I like large faced watches but I’d make an exception for such an elegant art deco work of watch art. Thank you for sharing.
@@NekkidWatchmaker May I ask a question, sir? About tools and machinery for repairing watches. I am in dire need of repair tools and how to do so. Thank you very much
I never understood the beauty or liked this watch until today. The movement is incredibly well designed in its balance of functionality, simplicity and decoration. Your video made my day! … as they have all done since your very first video during the lockdown, also a JLC!
Amazing to see some metal repairing techniques that I'd usually associate with cars and motorcycles - welding/molten metal and panel beating done on such a tiny scale. The laser etching to finish it off was brilliant. Thanks.
You did a great job on this. It's amazing how the movement was so cruddy at the crown but looked brand new inside. I really enjoyed seeing how the Reverso comes apart as a recent Duo-face owner. Thanks a lot.
Absolutely amazing work by you and all the other lads!! I am 50 and I'm learning how to mod and take apart movements and you are my absolute inspiration for that! Blessings my friend to you and to those whom you love!
Wow, just watched your restoration of the Jaeger LeCoultre Reverso watch, and I've got to say, I'm blown away! Your skills are off the charts, seriously. How you navigated all the ins and outs of that watch like a pro was so cool. And can I say, your chill vibe was the cherry on top throughout the whole thing. Even with all those tiny parts and tricky steps, you never missed a beat. Plus, your explanations were on point; I feel like I learned a ton just by watching. But the best part? Your humour, hands down. Your funny comments and chats with Mr Jim had me smiling the whole time. Not every day do you get to watch something so intricate with a side of laughs. It's a unique touch that sets you apart! Can't wait to see what you'll restore next. Keep up the excellent, interesting and informative work!!
I'm not writing this to suck up to you, but this channel is one of the best I have ever seen on this subject . Actually I have two left to watch yours and another one. Sometimes, instead of watching a stupid movie or TV series, I prefer to turn on some archival movie and see it again. It's a feast for the eyes. I also know that there are professionals I could trust entrusting my watch to. It's a pity that it's so far away because I would start servicing mine only at your place. I started my adventure with mechanical watches 2 years ago, so mine don't need restoration yet but when the need comes, who knows. I may even come personally with it to you. Once again: fantastic work, fantastic result, and fantastic channel, fantastic guy from you. Greetings and God's blessings to you. Remy
Thanks for taking us along for the ride on this beautiful restoration , I especially enjoyed the trip to Brum's Jewellery Quarter , as an Ex Lucas Aerospace Apprentice it brought back some bostin memories . I was especially proud of how you show how skilled & nice the people of Birmingham are . I'm living in Kona Hawaii now but once a Brummie Always a Brummie . KRO & up the Blues .
Thank you, sir, for having helped me explore this tiny world as we watch (sic!) over your shoulder... the concept of "inner beauty" has a whole new meaning for me now! Stay happy and healthy and may your gifted hands and your careful diligence continue to be richly rewarded...
As a very lucky Reverso owner, I loved watching that. Absolutely remarkable work. I cannot believe the state the watch was in before you started working on it. 👏🏻
@@dharmaqueen Hi Dharmaqueen, good question. I wear mine regularly - with interchangeable black alligator and brown leather straps you can dress it up or down. To not wear a nice watch and just leave it in a safe is to miss the joy of wearing such a beautiful watch. But don’t expect compliments from others because you’re wearing it for you - no one else gives a sh*t (quite rightly).
Thank you for outstanding job, sir! Among so many fake and pitiful "restoration" videos on yt, it is nice to stumble upon a gem like this one! Greetings from Russia, and let us all hope for the King's virtues you've mentioned in your closing words! Again, thank you so much for this aesthetic delight! ❤
This is hands down the best watch restoration video I've seen on TH-cam, ever. Period.
Now i understand why watch repairs can be so expensive , having watched your video ,it's worth every single penny.Thank you.
I love watching your videos as a rank amateur tinkerer. But it's your commentary that makes it entertaining, and sometimes, touching. Your gentle philosophies and warm regards for everything/everyone take us all out of the noisy world for an hour. Great work.

Completely Agree - It’s nice to have a break from this crazy world we live in sometimes.

I received a Grande Reverso Ultrathin 1931 tribute as a wedding gift 8 years ago and it is my most precious watch. It’s absolutely gorgeous. Thanks for this video ❤
I've inherited my mother lecoultre 1930s , non reversible, and have just got it cleaned. I chose the same strap! It's now being used daily after being silent for over 55 years. I am very proud to wear it.
The machine shop was truly a gem. The pure efficiency of what they do in that small foot print is so incredible impressive
"What do you know?" "You don't know anything." Said EVERY Dad to his son, at one point or another, in one tone or another, many times in both their lives. I love it.
“Cinematography unlike no other TH-cam film!!” “Stupendous!!” What a great video!
Really, really enjoyed the addition of other craftsman in your trade! Thank you for that nice ride!
Everyone one of your videos makes my day better. THANK YOU!
...in our time of mindless consumerism, seeing you revive such a battered masterpiece with such competence, endurance and passion is comforting and mesmerizing, well done!
Thank you 🙏
Thank you for the road trip. That was a very enjoyable segment. Your videos are always a pleasure to watch.
Thank you for this outstanding video. The field trip tour was wonderful and very informative. Again, thank you.
Watchmaker, storyteller and philosopher. Every king must be proud of such a watch!
Blank proud.. Only hyped priced watch
The patience shown as well as skill. Beggars belief!
Really interesting to see the engineering firms in Brum too. Thank you. 👍 😊
Amazing work. You are so resourceful to get an impossible project done! One of the best so far. Bravo!!

Thank you john
A master. The hands of a neurosurgeon, a love of beauty, a great dad, funny and a deliverer of fine foods to fellow craftsmen. Excellent.
Feels like a trip to your sanctum sanctorum to restore the elegant beauty to this classic. Excellent.
You, sir are an absolute magician, the romp around Birmingham was a breath of fresh air!!
My deepest compliments sir. I about had a heart attack at the sticky hairspring - but you came through as always- calm.

Absolutely stunning work,Sir.
It was a wonderful exploration to the shops. Thank you for the change of pace. This restoration has been great!
Gooood afternoon from central Florida! Hope everyone has a great afternoon!
Same to you, from scandinavia
Central as in tampa?
Amazing! I can’t believe how calming, relaxing and entertaining your vids are. Thank you for your hard work,you really do make anyone feel they can get involved and definitely removed the snobbishness from this fine art. 🔥
Thank you 🙏
"A dress bulldozer"... I love it!!
By the way, great sentiment at the end about the homeless and unfortunate. Noted.
From the Republic of Costa Rica, a standing ovation for your and yours labor of artisanship with this jewel!
What a brilliant restoration . Thanks for that ,very informative and enjoyable . This is one of my favorite watch designs .
I thought the added metal would always be slightly visible, maybe in colour difference, but no, the end result, with the superb laser engraving, was miraculous. You made a wonderful job of a task that looked impossible. 👋👋👋
And the work clearly takes the soul into account. It would have been a cheat to just replace parts, but that was respect.
"...they brushed the part that was supposed to be mirrored, and mirrored the part that was supposed be brushed..." Well it *is* called a "Reverso", so maybe they took up that challenge literally, hee hee
That engraving was just incredible. They way they were able to EXACTLY reproduce every marking like that so cool
Gotta' love it. I'm a tool and die maker and I've done picky work for tool and die. Finishes are everything but this is exceptional work. Thank you so much for your craftsmanship and artwork. WOW!!!
Fantastic work as usual Joe! Always wanted to see how laser welding worked. Thanks for recording that for us.
Another winner, Mr. B👍🥰Craftsmanship doesn’t even begin to describe the work that you and your mates can perform!
I’m amazed of the detail on the watches you repair.
Amazing transformation, great to see those small businesses keeping skills alive.
Your best video yet, I reckon. I’d happily watch a whole series about the small specialist companies you work with. That was absolutely fascinating.
What a joy to see your craftsmanship and the small machine shops.
So chilled after watching that incredible restoration...
A fantastic result.
Great sentiment that you expressed toward the end.. We can all but hope.
I really enjoyed this one. I love in America now, but I'm originally from Birmingham, and I lived in the B1 postcode area for about ten years.
Now that is a job second to NONE! Remarkable and excellent in every way! 😊
If only we could find politicians in America with your sense of duty and honor to your work. Always both entertained and enlightened by watching your videos, and it is so great to see a real professional doing what he is both good at and loves.
A truly astonishing restoration with a magnificent result.
This video was great! It reminded me to appreciate all those skills we take for granted. We forget that there is always someone somewhere that made something that is special to us, or that we use everyday.
Very enjoyable video showing all the restoration processes that we do not normally get to see. Truly well done indeed :)
Superb!
Thank you so much.
Stunning restoration and loved the walk-about.
I would like a dress bulldozer please! Kidding aside, the finished watch brought tears of admiration to my eyes. Well done, Joe!

Hi Joe, well after a lean period (hope your family are ok) your back with your best ever. The metal enhancement and etching was utterly fascinating. The depth of your knowledge never ceases to amaze me. Knowing what to do with the balance spring must only come with decades of experience. Not sure you’ve done too much for Birmingham’s tourist figures or fine dining reputation, but the Vallee de Joux will feel threatened. Many thanks !
Beautiful watch. Unbelievable work. You’re an artist and a craftsman.
This was special, so much admiration for the care and effort you put into these - never a shortcut taken. Much respect
Amazing video and I loved how you brought new tech into an ancient art. Fun fact: I had a very lovely friend come visit from the USA in early May and we wandered the Jewellery Quarter in the rain while there was a train strike so it was a little bit ghost town but she watched this and was "oh we went there" and "Oh we saw that"
