    Is it just me, the parts of this watch when all cleaned up, look absolutely beautiful. The quality in making these parts really shows. I'm completely mesmerized by the fact that all these tiny parts actually tell time once all assembled.

  • @Chipchase780
    @Chipchase780 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The classic rose gold coloured omega movement is a thing of beauty to behold. So elegant but also so hard wearing and efficient. My “daily beater” is a 1970 constellation with the 564 caliber movement. Tough little machines.

    Giving that Omega watch to your wife was very loving, and such a beautiful movement! Altogether a very beautiful watch restoration of superb vintage Omega parts. I should imagine the watch is quite expensive now. I love all your videos, such a pleasure. Thank you! Have a sweet weekend, Wendi UK. 🌻

    The more I watch these videos. The more I’m able to understand how a watch movement works and where each parts going and in which order. Thank you for making watch repairing relaxing.

    First thing I noticed was the dial washer missing!, love these watches Mark. They look like any other watch.... Until you open the back! And there you see extreme craftsmanship and beauty. Great video yet again. Thanks. Adrian ☘️

    Absolutely wonderful! I can't get enough of your videos. I started watching your content years ago when I was in college. Needless to say, I was quite taken away by the beauty in this type of work - taken away from my homework certainly. Now, interest turn obsession, I'm and slated to go to watchmaking school this fall. I'm looking forward to the career change. Goodbye mgmt, hello tweezers, drivers and loupe.

    Although this watch looked rough when you began, I thought the movement was in particularly nice shape and looked very good. This is a very attractive watch, the end result was excellent. Thank you Mark!

  • @465maltbie

    That movement is amazing looking, and to think this was made before CNC machinery became the norm. Thanks for sharing. Charles

  • @mikedillon6233
    @mikedillon6233 3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    I really like the way you did that slow motion kind of thing where takes the parts and put them back together. Reminds me of stuff I saw in the seventies as a kid! Thank you!

    ** ERRATA - This watch was from the 1960s rather than 1980s as stated in the video, apologies for any confusion **
    There's an Omega watch hiding in that case somewhere :D

    • @PMELKUS
      @PMELKUS 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      So another words depending on the year of the watch the oiling from one to another could be different. I'm waiting on my parts to come in. I order the parts you showed in your video you did about buying parts off of ebay using the 9498 movement only I'm going to strip the movement down and put it back together (I hope) so I can learn. I'm a retired machine and have always love to tinker with things.

    • @stevec5000

  • @CrazyPetez
    @CrazyPetez 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I enjoy watching you disassemble, clean, and assemble watch movements. The higher end movements like Omega and Rolex have a nice finish of the parts. The engine turning is alway more complete and nicer than run of the mill watches.

  • @bruces12
    @bruces12 3 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @cliffwheeler7357
    @cliffwheeler7357 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Absolutely fascinating. I really enjoyed this video for two main reasons. First was the level of skill and dexterity being shown. Second, the watch being worked on looks virtually identical to my 1968 Omega which my parents gave to me on my twenty first birthday. I still have it along with the box and papers and the receipt from Ernest Jones for £49-19-6. The crown on the featured watch looks larger than the one on my watch and the dial might be a slightly different diameter. Last year the mainspring failed, the first time the watch needed a repair after 51 years, a testament to the high quality of Omega watchmaking.

  • @paulschumacker9901
