It's your unique commentary and humour that sets you apart form everyone :) Those who dont like it are few and far between and not worth taking notice off... its not the pathetic critic that counts its the mass audience that does. Listen, we can't please everyone.. only people who sell ice cream can do that ;) Keep up your amazing and mesmerizing work.. :)
With sincere apologies, sir, I feel that the soul of your videos would be lost without the commentary. If I may suggest a comment that you could respond to the nay sayers with: "frankly my dear, I don't give a damn!". Other versions available.....
I could’t agree more with Malcom Peters and everyone thtat agrees with these comments just awesome work all an all, instructive, funny and entertaining!
Well personally i think those long forgotten craftsmen would look down and be proud to have your name next to there's, you my friend are an absolute legend.
"Even good old Albert Einstein had a couple of Longines himself back then, even though time was relative." This is the content we come here for! Bravo.
Sometimes I come back to this channel months after watching the videos just to appreciate how positive all the comments are. Mr. Nekkid you have spawned a really positive and upbeat fan base. Thanks for your service Sir, I’m a proud member.
Thanks benny. There are so many amazing and positive people all over the world. Their voices have been drowned out by all the noise in our world I guess
The fact your ego is so in check that you don’t bother to include your mark inside the watch is awe inspiring. I can’t thank you enough for these videos. Many blessings on you.
I never understood why watchmakers did this. Imagine if you took your car to the mechanic, and even if it is a Ferrari, or a Toyota, it is unacceptable for a mechanic to make it's permanent "mark" on the car.
I don’t know, I don’t hate the idea. It is interesting to know how many watchmakers visited the insides of a 50 or 70 year old watch. Tells you more about the history of the watch. If nothing else, it gives you a sense of how long it was actually in use for
@@DavidMunoz-wt6lt In restoration you'll generally find the car itself could be a mark. The restorers name will get tossed around with pride if the work is up to task but a master watchmakers name? Not so much.
My grandmother used to have a jewellery shop including a watch repair service. I like to watch the master repairing watches . But he wouldn’t let me near! He was worried I might steal his craft! You are most generous. Thank you
Out of many many watches you have done this simple, elegant and well made watch is one of my favourites. A thing of beauty and restored with immense skill
Another beautiful restoration. I love the way you left the face, It looks old but dignified like a fine wine. And I beg to differ. Your are worthy to inscribe your name as a repairer but I respect and agree not to scratch the watch. I repair and service antique clocks and its always a joy to see the service marks. I once found a service date of 1819!!! Makes me so happy to see something old still perform as intended. You do outstanding work. Thanks for the videos and please don't stop.........
this fragile thing is still working since 1922. beautiful and respectful work

A great class from a great teacher... I'm not a watch expert, but both my grandfather and great grandfather were watchmakers... I'm just an admirer... Kudos!
This movement is truly a thing of great beauty. Those separate little bridges on the power train form a design that looks almost organic, like the segments of a sea shell creature or a flower maybe. Always a great honour to work on antique movements, knowing that those who created such things of majesty are long gone from this Earth. We are merely the present day custodians of their beautiful legacy. You Sir, did a great job here and I believe that because of what you did this little watch will be ticking away on this planet after our time is long gone too. Peace.. ✌
What fascinates me is the beauty of the internal components and design. Something only the manufacturer and restorer can enjoy and appreciate. People typically don’t take apart their watch and marvel at the engineering….
This is the difference between a vintage handmade watch and some cheapish automatic citizen/miyota made by robots. I mean the effort they've put into making it with all the swirl things (I forget the proper term), you can't compare with modern stuff.
@@OffGridInvestor in theory the old manufacturers could use something like a Damasking machine by Stark (sort of a turntable and two slides driven by cams and worm gear which can produce the circular wavy patterns on American pocket watches etc), however the pattern on this watch would have probably been done in a less automated fashion.
Just discovered you. I didn't realise how absorbing watch servicing is! You brought a memory back from the early 1980s, when at an engineering exhibition in Glasgow there was a company exhibiting microscopic screws which were for the watchmaking industry. They had 3 turns and were 3 thousands of an inch across. Without a microscope they just looked like dust. I was impressed...
Your new camera is worth the wrath of the accountant! Another job well done. The movement looks more like a pocket watch than a wristwatch. It's lovely when craftsmen care enough to decorate parts that most will never see.
Thanks Peter. Yes I think a lot of wristwatch movements from that era were just adaptations of pocket watch movements. It was probably easier to just shrink everything down instead of a full redesign, that’s my guess
Your client is lucky in two ways. One, to actually own such a watch and two, to find such an accomplished restorer as your good self. A watch I would be proud to own myself.
A nice little back story, disassemble, clean, and reassemble. Relatively simple and Bob's your uncle. (Not to mention considerable craftsmanship, a good sense of humor (or humour) and hours of inspired film editing.) As always, thanks for sharing.
I've just recently found your channel and have watched you restore several time pieces. I can without a doubt say that you are gifted in what you do. Your mark is worthy in my opinion. I must say that this is my favorite time piece that you have done so far. My grandfather had one just like it and this video reminded me of him. Thank you for that. Keep doing what you do. Because of this video I'm going to try and find this particular watch and have it restored if needed. You are brilliant with your skills.
Once again you have brought back to life a magnificent example of superb engineering! Thank GOD there are still people around with such passion to restore such things of beauty! I wish i had the skill to do the same!
I’m watching a genius master craftsman service a masterpiece all the while sadly reminiscing a about when my sons were young and wanted to help me do every task. Such warm memories.
I am really amazed to see, how he is tearing off the smallest parts one by one and remembering each and every tinny little parts back to the original position. And in the process of reassembling all the parts to the watch into motion and functional. Really a genius task to accomplish such a job requiring passion, experience, knowledge and skills.
Such a lovely old timepiece. Glad it reached your loving care before it fell into disuse and was sold for parts alone. Thank you my friend. Peace to you as well.
This is the first time I have seen your video, it was very interesting and in particular, I enjoyed all of the details that were shown. I had never seen a watch taken apart before, it was more intricate than I ever imagined. You have great patience to work with such tiny screws.
This is a great video. Your skills are admirable, even if you don't think so. Your before and after pictures speak for themselves. I wouldn't mind seeing another "how to" video for different models. I don't find them boring or repetitive. There is something so peaceful and uplifting watching you care for the parts and put these beautifully useful pieces of everyday wear back together again.
I am so glad the Algorithm suggested your channel. Everything from your calm soothing voice and excellent commentary to the exceptional craftsmanship, precision and patience you demonstrate. Love the channel!
Your Mark needs to be in these watches! That is the history of the watch! You should want to be in the history of every watch that you restore and that goes through your shop. Plain and simple! You not leaving your mark in the watch is taking something from the watch!!!
Fantastic. Quite impressive skill. 1 in a million could down that kind of perfect restoration. I “watched” the whole video. “Attention to detail” is the only descriptor. Thank you.
You give the watches the reason to Live again They in turn give the proud owner A reason to Smile Thank you for these wonderful videos with the cool sense of humor in your narration Thank you youtube .
Bro just wanted to say a massive thank you for your content. not only did you restore the watches, but my faith in humanity. one love, keep up the great work and the Epic Commentary, please.
Love how you tell the stories of the watch and brand ! Sales consultants these days they just know nothing other than repeating 'sapphire glass,automatic,water resistant'.
Mesmerising video. Beautiful job, I would’ve thought that was an ugly-ass watch but the attention you give to it made me entirely change my mind and I must say now, it’s a stunning timepiece, stylish, charming and charismatic. The wearer of such a watch would command respect, no doubt.
I've been binge watching all yr videos. For some reason, this was an especially lovely vid. Maybe it's because the watch had such an elegant movement. But all of them do... thank you for making these videos. They're like a peaceful respite from all the noise outside.
Another beautiful video! The technical aspects are very interesting and a real education for those lucky enough to do this for a part of their living if not for their full livelihood! May God bless you and your family as you continue your beautiful work!
I've mentioned before that my dad was a watchmaker. In the early days he fixed clocks and would bring them home to test the timekeeping. Many of them chimed, and lots were cuckoo clocks. You can imagine what 12 noon was like!
I'd like to say two things: First, it was an absolute joy watching, no pun intended, a master at work. And second, the history of the Industrial Revolution and the advance it made in the lives of the working class would not be complete or even possible without the watchmaker. Long before CNC tools the watchmaker needed ultra precise fine parts and that need pushed technology to make watches possible -- that development was crucial to every thing that came after. The products that were core to the early Industrial Revolution included: sewing machines and textile equipment, farm implements and hand tools, guns and watches and clocks. Of all these products the watch was an order of magnitude more significant in pushing technology.
I have been marathon-watching your videos since I discovered your channel. I believe I've watched every single video at least 3 or 4 times now and I am still amazed and fascinated with your skills, humility, humor (I do enjoy your funny comments, jokes and even your singing) and inspiring parenting. Thank you so much for existing. The internet and the world are better places because of you.
There is such beauty in the precision of those watches. What leaves me in awe, is the precision of the individual parts. The makers of those pieces must have been the finest microscopic parts makers ever.
Previously in my life I've never had any interest in watch repairs or restoration. In fact I don't even own a watch! Then I stumbled upon your channel just by chance. Now I'm addicted and hoping to buy a watch soon too.
Your commentary is as interesting and entertaining as the work you do on the video. You patience is admiral as well. It amazes me that such precision could have created such a magnificent device SO MANY YEARS ago.
I love this! Thank you for being so informative and so willing to teach. I have recently cultivated a love for wrist watches and am learning the difference in movements.
What a gorgeous watch!, if only it could talk!. The stories it could tell. This video felt like a real lesson, so thanks for all the info. Look forward to the next adventure. 👍. Adrian
Look at all that beautiful brushed patterning on the movement underneath the balance & the dial... such fine & purely decorative work which is only ever seen & appreciated by the various watchmakers over time. Gorgeous! 👌

@@NekkidWatchmaker well said
Who makes all the little wheels and other parts of any watch ⌚️
At 68 I would love to be able to have your skill and craft as a watchmaker. Do you need an apprentice?
How do I find your email? I have couple of vintage watches I want to be restored.
I know almost nothing about watches but I was mesmerized by this man's gigantic expertise, his humility, and his humanity. He is a lesson for us all.
The fact your ego is so in check that you don’t bother to include your mark inside the watch is awe inspiring. I can’t thank you enough for these videos. Many blessings on you.
Although I'd love to have his service mark on the inside of my watch! Not only a perfectionist, but a famous one!
I never understood why watchmakers did this. Imagine if you took your car to the mechanic, and even if it is a Ferrari, or a Toyota, it is unacceptable for a mechanic to make it's permanent "mark" on the car.

@@DavidMunoz-wt6lt It's also a nice thing to find because you would then know exactly how long it had been since it was serviced.
One more reason to be thankful for the internet and TH-cam and for all the generous people who share their experience with us.
'Even though time was relative'...
The commentary itself is enough to watch the entire video.
I am here for the commentary, no clue what all the bits in a watch do except for the hands and the winder
@@andyrbush I can see how that can be the case. Am just glad I love watches, puns, dad jokes, and tinkering. The Nekkid watchmaker ticks all boxes.
Like his uncle or what?!
Me, too! I watch these videos because of the off the cuff, off the wall humor!
Heading towards a quarter of a million subscribers, with all comments POSITIVE well done another 12/10 from me...
I havent even worn a watch I about 15 years, but I find your videos so relaxing. Thank you do sharing your talent.

The understatement of this Longines is incredibly charming.
One of the more interesting movements that I have watched you service .
You have new life back into the old boy. We should all look that good at one hundred years old. Thank you.
Watching this guy’s videos actually has an immensely calming effect on me. It’s just wonderful - and real.
I know it’s something special when you open the watch and you say wow!. That speaks volumes
I honestly wasn’t expecting that level of detailing under the dial and under the balance wheel especially as the bridges on the other side are plain.
@@NekkidWatchmaker Always amazes me how much of the beauty of the watch is hidden from the owner, but revealed to the watchmaker!
theBigMoose so true especially for vintage watches. We do have exhibition casebacks nowadays but still a lot is hidden

Restoring history. This is how watchmaking should be. The detailed steps, so intricately applied makes it the finest finish.
I always hit play on long clips with skipping along in my mind. Never skipped on this channel. It's worth every single minute.
