  • What makes these contents so interesting is the storytelling. Marshall first tells the story of the watch and its owner before he even begins to work on the piece. That's like character-building in a story and that's got all of us rooting for a good ending. That he doesn't even charge says a lot about him. Great job.

    • Watchmaker here also. Absolutely not. It's less about understanding the mechanism itself, which for a simple 3-hand watch aren't complicated; and more about developing the fine motor control and dexterity. It takes _many_ hours of practice and much patience to get to the point where you can competently work without worrying about losing or damaging things. This channel is however better than most in being clear and concise in both narration and work! That being said, there are watches that even after 20+ years I hate working on. You haven't lived til you're faced with a vintage $30k triple-date moonphase chronograph that a client wants repaired, serviced and restored...

    • I don't mind the occasional _conservative_ use of diamonds on a fancy dress piece, but 99% of the "bling" out there is tacky as hell. Also, unless it came from the factory that way, all those added stones ruin the value of the watch as non-original modifications if you ever want to sell it. A Rolex (or other high end brand) will always hold or even appreciate in value if it's well-kept and original.

    • @@chaotus Well, 25+ years dealing vintage watches says you're wrong. Not _all_ watches obviously, I'm talking about the high end/luxury brands (and especially the popular model ranges). I'm obviously not saying if you buy a new Rolex and sell it the next day that you'll get 100% of your money back either -- at least not until the watch is a classic model 30 years from now. But new-bought luxury watches will hold the vast majority of their value (~80% or more) for many years as long as they're kept in good shape, then eventually start to appreciate. If you buy a *used or vintage* luxury watch though, you _will_ get 100% of your investment back at sale immediately -- or even more if you wait a few years. Luxury watches are almost a static market as far as value retention: they retain their value, and slowly appreciate after about 10 years OR if the model in question is particularly popular. Watches that are already vintage, particularly Rolex, Patek, Omega et al, have also been steadily appreciating in value in the last couple decades to the point they often exceed the price of the current new models. Like anything else you have to know what you're doing, and I'm talking in general terms here. But there's an extremely large contingent of collectors out there who only want vintage. The used/vintage market in general has been in perpetual boom since the 1990s at least (partly because of the "premium pricing" constant-increase strategy of the major brands which makes buying used the best option for most regular people. That's exactly why the demand for new watches _isn't_ there for the majority of people who own luxury pieces. It's actually only a small fraction of the rich who keep the new market alive). The only other consumer goods I can think of that will hold or appreciate in value like watches are firearms. That goes for lasting multiple lifetimes of use as long as they're take care of too. Pretty much every other major consumer item from appliances to cars to TVs to smartphones takes a massive hit the second it's bought and becomes obsolete and basically worthless within 5 years -- no matter how expensive it was or what brand made it. Guns and high end watches follow a very different trajectory of value.

  • What a wonderful journey! I was completely attentive and marveled at every step to take out, clean, oil and put back in or rerplace every small piece of this watch! I have a love of small hand tools as I enjoy simple jewelry repair but I had no idea until now how small and important every little piece is to running a fine watch like this gorgeous Rolex. Thank you for this wonderful tutorial! Your very calm, clear and nicely explanatory manner of the step-by-step work you did is highly appreciated and highly commendable! A true work of love!
