That's the thing with Rolex. Even a quartz movement is delight to the eye. These guys really put a lot of attention to detail.

[@kenstrng]

I rarely like or comment on any videos, but I was compelled to do both with this video.
I came to this video to get ideas on duplicable methods that I may have been able to use on my own watches from home but instead the opposite occurred. Your work is diligent, proficient, and sets an exemplary justification to the standards of a service like this. Great work! If I ever need such a service I will definitely keep this channel in mind!

[@Vintwatches]

Thank you 🙏

[@kevinxu8454]

This is the best I have seen so far !

[@Vintwatches]

Thank you 🙏

[@ralphferrara5152]

Man,that watch came out absolutely perfect. I am so impressed with your talent and all your toys. Beautiful machinery. The right tools do the right job. But it’s the person behind the tools. I love watching your videos. To be honest with you, I never knew that Rolex made Quartz watches. Well again, job well done. Keep those videos coming. Thanks 😊

[@Vintwatches]

Thank you very much for your comment! 🙏😊

[@dominikatamanczuk4635]

Ruhrpotter Jung, aber die Arbeiten und Videos absolute Weltklasse!

Its spiritual relaxing to watch :-) . Now I have to hunt an affordable Oysterquartz 😮.

[@Vintwatches]

Thanks, I do have a Oysterquartz for sale.

[@alexanderbutenko1480]

your skill and set of tools is impressive. Factory quality wow. Thank you for your videos

[@Vintwatches]

Thanks 😊🙏

[@florianvalentin8604]

This is outstanding! I’m not sure if Rolex would refinish it with that much love to detail (they would prbly try to sell the owner a new midcase instead of laser welding).
Fantastic work 🎉👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@valmonta3647]

My first time seeing this kind of movement, thanks for sharing. Subscribed!!!

[@Vintwatches]

[@cedricmattera538]

Mdr y’a pas que lui qui c’est faire mdr

[@jamesbizs]

He does amazing work. But no. Not one of the best watch makers alive. Also, from this video? Most of this video was about machining. Almost no watch making.

[@TheCristo68]

You're a master. Amazingly precise and detailed beautiful work .

[@Vintwatches]

[@abg.luissanchezurbina2945]

Saludos desde #Venezuela, cuanto seria el valor/costo de un Rolex Oysterquartz restaurado en la actualidad ? GRACIAS. Greetings from #Venezuela, how much would the value/cost of a restored Rolex Oysterquartz be today? THANK YOU

[@Silentjackll]

It's like a cheap rolex. I love it!

[@Vintwatches]

Thx 🙏

[@Silentjackll]

@@Vintwatches You are truly talented. My hats off to you sir.

[@wowzers0_070]

Is that 2-axis vice impossible to find for sale? I've searched my butt off but can't find one. Any tips on locating one?

[@Vintwatches]

It will be impossible, it’s an old vise from famous former case manufacturer Schmitz Frères. I think they did them in house.

[@wowzers0_070]

Lucky guy! I appreciate the response. It looks pretty awesome and really helps the work. @@Vintwatches

[@juancarloskalfaian2977]

Great Job, do yo know how many years Rolex has been manufacturing spare parts For this calibre, and on the other hand , what is the useful life of the electronic modul of this model and caliber, thank you

[@Vintwatches]

Good questions, unfortunately I don’t know how many spare parts Rolex does have on stock and if they are able still to produce them. To keep the Modul healthy, use a quality battery and pull the crown out, if you are not wearing the watch for a longer time.

[@oldskoolbronco]

Sehr gut.

[@Vintwatches]

Thx 🙏

[@ismaelmata4953]

[@mikebruegger8654]

Nuther outstanding result....

[@Vintwatches]

Thanks Mike 😃🙏

[@silver771000]

A piece of art! Now I do feel the brushing on the bracelet is a bit heavy but I do really like it 👌🏻

[@Vintwatches]

Thanks 🙏

[@ColdasCarter]

I was scared you would reshape the case but the end result honestly looks better than new! Bravo
P.S is it safe to use the laser welder with bare hands?

[@Vintwatches]

Thanks 🙏 You shouldn’t laser into your hand, otherwise it’s safe.

[@rbrtschmdt]

Awesome work. How many hours got into this restoration?

[@Vintwatches]

Thanks 🙏 It was a few days of work!

[@JavierBeltran-zw6cg]

How much does something like this run in US dollars?

[@Vintwatches]

Just drop me an email or use the contact form on my website Vintwatches.com for pricing.

[@WhoIsSerafin]

Damn!

[@karlesser9541]

Welche Körnung benutzt du um am besten das Mattierungs Finish von Rolex herzustellen? Ganz ganz tolle Videos weiter so!

[@Vintwatches]

Ein paar Geheimnisse müssen ja bleiben 😬

[@karlesser9541]

Bitte 🥺

[@PyroFalcon]

I had no idea that Rolex made quartz movements.

[@Vintwatches]

Yes they did, very quality Quartz movements with an mechanical anchor.

[@rampantcolt]

1977-2002 only 25000 made. Rare mass produced model

[@HD-Tech]

Pleas sell me that Oyster Quartz! Ive been looking at them for almost two years now. I haven't pulled the trigger because Im looking for the perfect one. This one is perfect. Fantastic job. Would like to see it on a time grapher though.

[@Vintwatches]

Thanks 🙏 Movement has been serviced and excellent performance on the timing machine 😊

[@HD-Tech]

Is it for sale?

[@harishobh9570]

Bro i have one for you to plzzzz

[@Vintwatches]

Send me an Email 🙏🤩

[@ccooper8785]

I really wish Rolex offered quartz options of the OP and Explorer for those of us who value accuracy...

[@Vintwatches]

🙏

[@jamesbizs]

Lol oh come on. What exactly are you going to do with this supposed accuracy? People act like if their watch is half a second off per day, that will be the end of the world. You want accuracy?? Buy a $20 Casio. If you like watches, you go for a quality movement. Not some electronic junk that is accurate just because it has a tiny little crystal in it.

[@lx95020]

Tissot PRX copied this watch?

[@Canada-gs3jc]

No, tissot had the seastar which came out in I believe 1977. Both of which took style from AP and vacheron Constantine watch’s from the early 1970s

[@Vintwatches]

The style is very typical for the 1970s. Tissot watches of this episode were styled similar.

[@marcheezy.]

Omega has one as well from that era with a near identical case.

[@Bladeworkssystems]

not a real rolex. Rolex doesn't use cheap stamped clasps like that, They;re machined and polished. Rolex's are perfect and that aintt it

[@Vintwatches]

???

[@jamesbizs]

LOL 😂😂😂 Please tell me you’re trolling. You can’t actually believe that. And rolex is perfect? Yeah. Ok. Do you also believe it takes a year to produce every rolex and that each one is only worked on by one watch maker? Rhisbis a real rolex , and you clearly know NOTHING about watches, let alone rolex.
