This is the first time that I have watched this process. There were some interesting techniques that I saw. The masking of the base surface to polish the high parts was very interesting. I am not sure what the mask was. It looks like perhaps a thin tape. I also enjoyed the use of the plastic over the dial to ensure alignment of the ink to the dial prior to doing the final inking.
Hi, there! Thank you for watching and we're glad that our video was the first to come up for you for dial refinishing services! We have been building up on our techniques since we started the company in 1926, so the knowledge and expertise was definitely passed down for efficient craftsmanship.

I love your videos and I love your work, wish mine was recorded when you did it. Maybe next time!
Hi, there! Thank you for watching as always. Please let us know if you ever send in another watch dial and we'd be more than happy to record the process for you. We appreciate the continuous support and we hope you enjoy our future videos 😊
This is really impressive. Could you briefly explain how those printing devices work? Where wo you get the printing templates from and how do you make sure the print is well aligned? Thanks!
Hi, there! We have the largest collection of original plates in the United States that has been growing since 1926; the print templates either come from the original manufacturer that we collected over almost a century of servicing the trade, or if the timepiece is out of production, we do our best to recreate the template ourselves through our technology. In our other videos, we show some recreations of new dial templates by scanning the dial and laser engraving its original print onto a new metal plate. From there, we use the traditional art form of printing; the print is aligned by stamping the print onto the transparent sheet that you see in the video before moving the actual dial in its correct position and using the transparent sheet as a guide. It's quite a meticulous step that our team of dial refinishers perfected after many years! Please do not hesitate to ask any more questions. Thank you again and have a wonderful day 😊
awesome, thanks for taking so much time for your reply ❤
Great restoration. Do you also do enamel pocket watch dials?
Hi, there! Thank you so much for watching and for the compliment. We appreciate the support! Our team does handle enamel pocket watch dials and can also work with custom requests. If you're interested in our services, please feel free to email our Customer Service team at info@krdial.com for more information. Thank you again and have a wonderful day 😊
Awesome videos!!! What is the powder you used at 3:00? is it some sort of polishing powder?
Hi, there! Thank you so much for watching and for your interest in our process. Although we cannot share what the powder specifically is due to it being a trade secret, we can say that it's used to give the dial the specific shade of white that the customer requested. We appreciate your understanding and hope you have a wonderful day ☺
What type of paint is used?
So what's the part of the process at about 0:58? Electrostripping to remove the original silver?
Hi, there! Thank you for watching and for your interest in our craft. It's essentially electroplating!
Sir, I am very curious about paints and coatings you are using. Because I do have on non-valuable vintage dial waiting for training treatment 😅 What kind on paints, inks and laquers to use as those original ones are definitely not available anymore.
Hi, there! Thank you so much for watching and for your interest in our craft. Unfortunately, we cannot share the details as it is a trade secret. We'd be more than happy to help you should you need dial refinishing services. Feel free to visit our website: krdial.com/
@@kirkrichdial Sir, thanks for your answer. I respect that. Your trade secrets are your daily bread and butter. Also, thanks for your offer. As told, my vintage watch is not valuable, not worth of professional restoration. I just wanted to give it a try because of my personal interest of making things by myself.
Where can I learn this art?
Hi, there! We're not sure where you can locally learn the art of dial refinishing, however, there may be watchmaking schools out there that teach these specializations. However, there are not many who practice dial refinishing anymore. We are proudly trying to revive the art of dial refinishing by partnering with our authorized partner My Jewelry Repair and passing down the knowledge through our teams.
Очень круто !
Всем привет! Огромное спасибо за просмотр и за добрые слова. Мы искренне ценим это и надеемся, что вам понравятся и другие наши видео. Удачного дня 😊
How much does this cost?
Hi, there! Thank you so much for reaching out to us! Our dial refinishing services start at $225 USD + Shipping and additional fees depend on the amount of work that needs to be done. We recommend shipping your loose dial out of the watch to avoid a $75 disassembly/reassembly fee if you do not wish to have the rest of your watch worked on as well. However, if you do need help doing so with other pieces, you can send in your watch as a whole and we can professionally do it for you when we receive it. Our current turnaround time is about 3-5 weeks. If you have any questions about your specific dial, feel free to contact our Customer Service team through email at info@krdial.com or through phone at (909) 828-5022 Monday through Friday from 9am - 3pm PST. They can also provide you with a more accurate pricing estimate on your dial. Please let us know through email if you are shipping from outside the U.S. as we have further instructions for international orders. Thank you again and have a wonderful day! ⌚
what is this in 3:10, Sir ?
Hi, there! Thank you for watching and for your comment. We use a special type of substance to scrub on the dial to make it that specific color. Unfortunately, we cannot give the specifics of this substance away due to it being a trade secret. We appreciate your understanding and we hope you have a wonderful day 😊
@@kirkrichdial thanks sir

The font is diffetent. Position of numers in sub dial are incorrect 👎 I never see people like that spend time to do 1:1 cliché
Don't bother if you're not going to do a voice over to describe what's going on.
Hi, there! This is the style of our ASMR video as we focus on the original sounds and visuals of our dial refinishing shop. Many people enjoy our content in this format. We appreciate the input and we are already considering voiceovers for our future content, however, as are focusing on the quality craftsmanship of the dial refinishing work. Thank you for watching and have a wonderful day 😊
That would make sense if you’re turn the stupid background radio off. Most of the time that’s the only thing you can hear.
That ink press is fascinating!
Hi, there! Thank you so much for watching and for your comment. We totally agree that the printing is quite fascinating! We can watch our team of dial refinishers work all day 😊
