Absolutely awesome. I've messed about with old cheap watches and those screws look like specs of dust. I don't know how you manage to work so skillfully with such tiny components. Bravo sir
I love this profession with all my heart, but I do not have the tools and devices to work and repair capacities like you. Thank you, respect and appreciation for your mastery of work and an explanation of the repair 💖
Hi vforvictor! That is good to hear sir! I have definitely put in some effort to try and up the quality zo its great when that is noticefd and acknowledged. Nice one! Thanks. Richard
Richard an outstanding restoration of my favorite version of the Datejust! At least they brought it to you for service before it became a truly rusted mess inside! I just subscribed to see more of your amazing work!
Great video Richard. Sometimes it is difficult to comprehend how small and intricate the components are until you have something to compare them against. Da iawn.
Haven't watched your videos in quite some time... You're doing a great job with your production! I especially enjoy seeing the specialty tools being used. Keep up the good work!
Hi Heywood! Thanks for this observation ... I have been trying to up my game in terms of film making and it's great to hear that the work invested is actually being noticed so thanks for taking the trouble to say so! Richard
Another wonderful video. At this point all I can do is echo the kind words of your growing legion of subscribers. Great camera work, professional skills, calm delivery. A major success, Major! My best to you and your family as always, from the wilds of the Allegheny National Forest in Northwestern Pennsylvania.
Always love watching your videos. Such a privilege to see such a process and operation on a watch, particularly a Rolex! Keep the great content coming!
Amazing as always Richard! Since Covid I started doing work on watches, starting on cheap chinese and now pretty comfortable with 1/2 function ETA’s. Seeing your videos makes me want to try my hand at my rolex
Hi DutchClawz... Low error rate is the secret. You need to not be making very many errors when working on Rolex or it will vet expensive. Practice to drive down the error rate and then go for it I figure. Thanks for the feedback. Richard
Another interesting restoration ! Loved the professional recovery when the spring went , well done Richard! Next one tomorrow pre lights out has to be the 10 years in the canal restoration , can’t wait …..😴
I just subscribed the other day when I came across one of your videos Richard, your just amazing and that maybe even an understatement. Looking forward to what you'll do next, Thank you for sharing with us all!
Hi Vienna! You are way too kind for sure! In fact maybe I should come to The City of Music and do a collaboration. We could do kaffee und kuchen and then rummage in a flea market for a Rolex Daytona or Jaeger LeCoultre that is not full of water. That would be fun! Stay tuned! Richard
Thank you for helping me I work on freinds and family's watches and a few have rust. I have been working on watches for about a year but I have been collecting for about 5 years.
Richard dear, its been a while...terribly sorry for not be able to watch your restoration for quite sometimes now..new phone won't let me sign in and I can't comment on your videos unless I use me old phone. As a fan, I missed you dearly and as always...A wonderful restoration as always. Regards Aliff
Wow! As usual another great video. I will share this with my friend maybe he can service his Date just lol. I put it on my timegrapher it is -85 s/d with a beat error of 0.4 it badly needs service. Funny thing is he's been wearing the Восток Амфибия I sold him last year and it's keeping perfect time for him. Talk about going from a Rolls to a Chevy. I have found watch collecting to be about happiness, fun, and your own identity. Half the fun is research, and saving up to buy the watch. Money from cheap to luxury prices really doesn't matter.
Hi Jimmy... Yes you're friend's Datejust definitely needs some TLC... I have been wearing my red Komandirskie a lot recently. They are great watches for sure! Thanks for the feedback. Richard
What a nice surprise on a cold Saturday morning, able to see you going deep into another piece 😊 I'm not a lover of Rolex...However, that was/is a pretty thing and deserved the care you lavished on it. Top work once again Richard, I love the macro videography that you bring to your vlogs👍
Hi Kent. Maybe ! I will convert you one day sir! And yes it is a pretty example so it would be a shame for it not to look its best. Thanks for the support as always. Richard
@@richardperrettwatchmaker Hmmmm good luck on that one 😉 One of my good friends has a DDM in his collection, along with several other models from the same house...the only watch of his I covet is his AP. I really would like to relieve him of that puppy 😉 I guess I'll be on tenterhooks until that Jaeger gets the RPW treatment 👍
Great video,I really enjoyed it.I bought a pre owned 2020Tudor Pelago a few weeks ago.It stopped working.I took it to my local Rolex/Tudor dealer,who called me a day later to say it was very over lubricated.The worse they had seen.So it seems to be a common problem!
Hi David... Bit odd that a 2020 watch is over lubrucated. I cannot think this would happen at Tudor and the watch is too new for a service to have been necessary. Not sure how this occurred. Richard
@@richardperrettwatchmaker The previous owner said the watch was not very good at time keeping and he took it to a watch dealer to investigate.Not a Rolex/Tudor dealer,There lies the problem,I think!
Wow Richard! Awesome restoration, as usual! I hope you're all well, I'm happy to enjoy this new video, hoping more to come in the near future! The video quality is stunning, and I always appreciate how you point out where the problem is, so that the viewer can learn something new every time! Like you've done by showing us the yoke cam and the jewel, to address the date change problem. Thank you so much! I can't wait to see the "magnetic" JLC coming from the sea stripped down to the bone :-) Cheers from Italy! Stay safe!
@@richardperrettwatchmaker Thank you Richard! I really hope you'll find the JLC "feasible" for us to enjoy your outstanding work. Things are going slightly better now. I really hope this pandemic will come to an end and I wish all of us could someway return soon to a more normal life. Cheers!
Thank you for sharing ur skill with us. Currently down to one arm for a bit so on injury down time this super active guy is chilling with you and the birds.
I am lucky George ... I have got the window closed here atm but it is nearly dusk and I can here the birds singing away! It's a nice sound to work to for sure. Thanks for thr feedback. Richard
Reminds me of a carriage clock I repaired a couple of years ago (now chugging merrily away on my mantel): the movement looked as if it had been dunked in a tub of Castrol GTX.
Lubricants. I had a customer that sold Aimsoil and he changed his filter every 5k miles and oil every 30k. Well a few years later we were installing a replacement engine because it didn’t have oil pressure. Had so much build up from running the old oil. I think he quit selling it after that. Awesome video as always Richard.
Richard...what is the solution you clean the dial with? Also at 2:16 ...Looks like it was working. Saw the second hand sweeping. But certainly needed service.
Brilliant! Nice to see small things ping off even for experts. Your filming has improved with details so clear now. Thanks for a great viewing Richard....PS how do you regulate the beat error after the watch has run in? One for the future perhaps
Thanks Johhny! I have tried to up my game with photography so that is good to hear. Beat error has a lever on this movement for simple adjustment. Tbanks for the feedback. Much appreciated. Richard
Dear Richard, I'v just noticed that there's no chronoswiss restoration on youtube!! Very strange, I think it should be wonderful if you could manage to find a chronoswiss and do a servicing of it. Kind regards. Fabrizio
Any vingar will be ok but use white if you've got some. Best to apply with a small brass strand brush or old toothbrush and rub gently to remove the corrosion. Hope this helps.
Hello Richard. Why the left handed screw? And any chance you could make a film of how the components are made? Realize you would have go to Switzerland so would be happy to carry your bags. However, as always an impressive bit of work. Best wishes to you and yours. G
Hi Gerald ... the reverse thread is so that the rotary action of the component being held in place does not work so as to loosen the screw itself but rather to tighten it. Hope this helps. Richard
Hi Paul... Thanks mate! Haha, Baptiste and Quentin are super cool and have a great Treasure Fishing channel so so long as the JLC is saveable we are onto a winner! Richard
good evening Richard I have been following you for a long time and you are doing an amazing job restoring watches please can you repair my Seiko sportura slq1 watch I will be very grateful to you thank you
Does anybody know if it is true that there is s sort of 'upgrade' for the automatic mechanism for early 2135 movements? I once heard, unconfirmed, that in early production the reversing mechanism had some components that were not identical to later production, and that replacing them would enhance the perforance of the automatic. I'd just like to know.
Hey Richard / enjoying this video. I recently had my late grandfather's Rolex 1950s Shock Resisting gold repaired to running condition - got fleeced by a "master" watchmaker who cut corners and overcharged. Got a partial refund and its now with a proper watchmaker. Brilliant piece of design and engineering - love the watch. Valuer having real trouble valuing it though - if you know about vintage Rolex/Swiss watches valuation, it would make an interesting video. Regards/ from Australia.
Amazing work as always, Richard, I must say that I was holding my breath as you cleaned the dial. I'm afraid that my repertoire of profanity would be inadequate were I to attempt the "strong spring/tiny jewel" episode. Much more satisfying to see an actual watchmaker who produces such fine videos. Thanks for a lovely start to my morning!
In general terms low torque, high speed components require 'thinner' lubes than high torque, low speed ones ... but specifically the lubrication specifications for popular calibres are pretty well known so I just follow these. Hope this helps. Richard
Great video once again! Love the work you do and the care you take to bring them back. I would like to add one thing. I have noticed in a few videos that you call the luminescent marker " Tritium " . In fact they are not. Tritium is found in glass vials like on a Luminox watch. I truly wish Rolex would use tritium. Especially on their dive watches such as the Deep-Sea that I own. That would make sense. I have been also trying to find a video where dial markers have come loose and need to be reinstalled. I just would like to see how it is done. I have a Baume & Mercier ( Baume et Mercier ) that needs the markers reinstalled. And I do not wish to just use the wrong glue or adhesive to re mount them on a dial.
The birds singing was beautiful. So was the work you did on the watch.
Absolutely awesome. I've messed about with old cheap watches and those screws look like specs of dust. I don't know how you manage to work so skillfully with such tiny components. Bravo sir
I love this profession with all my heart, but I do not have the tools and devices to work and repair capacities like you. Thank you, respect and appreciation for your mastery of work and an explanation of the repair 💖
You are the Man who whispered to Rolexes. Absolutely beautiful!
Haha! The Rolex Whisperer! Cool! Thanks David! Richard

Quality workmanship and camera work. A pleasure to watch, with no annoying adds. It doesn't get any better.
Masterful work Richard.
Thanks for another great vintage Rolex video. Great work. Never get tired of the Rolex resto videos, love seeing these things keep going.
Thanks Gary... Considering the age and 'mileage' of these vintage Rolex watches they often restore really nicely. Thanks for the feedback. Richard

You sir are a true artisan 👍🏼
The work you do is painstakingly labor intensive and requires lots of knowledge, patience and experience. I hope you’re paid well.
Richard what is the name of the tool that you cleaned the dial with and the liquid that you used
How long should I leave the watch in vinager and what kind should I use?
Any vingar will be ok but use white if you've got some. Best to apply with a small brass strand brush or old toothbrush and rub gently to remove the corrosion. Hope this helps.

Sir rolex oyster perpetual Indian prise please sir reply me
From a technical standpoint, how do you know whether to apply grease versus oil to a particular place?
In general terms low torque, high speed components require 'thinner' lubes than high torque, low speed ones ... but specifically the lubrication specifications for popular calibres are pretty well known so I just follow these. Hope this helps. Richard
