Restoration of Brad Pitt's Citizen "Bullhead" watch from "Once upon a time in Hollywood"

This time I´m restoring a Citizen Bullhead Chronograph.
The watch become famous as Cliff Booth (played by Brad Pitt) worn it in the movie "Once upon a time in Hollywood"
This watch is powered by the Citizen 8110A chronograph movement.
The watch is in a really bad condition. The gold-plated case and the painted bezel is heavily damaged, the glass is scratched, the movement stops repeatedly and the bracelet is not original and broken.
I need to get rid of the old gold-plating and the black paint, i´m using my new sandblaster for this job.
After sanding and polishing the case, it´s ready for a new gold-plating. The bezel gets a new painting after polishing.
I need to replace the glass and the crown. Crown and chronograph-pushers were gold-plated originally but Cliff is wearing it with silver colored crown and pushers.
So I´m just polishing the pushers and waive the gold-plating.
The hands can be polished but I need to re-paint the chronograph hands with a nice looking "orange".
The dial is hopeless. I can´t restore that one so I need to use my little time machine again.
After everything is cleaned, polished, re-plated and re-painted, I can re-assemble the movement with some fresh oil. After that, this watch is in a fantastic beat (+0 seconds per day) again.
I hope you liked this restoration, if so, like, comment and subscribe ;)

  • Wow! This is amazing!! 🤩 As a Japanese who loves mechanical watches and who has gotten serviced by our local Citizen Japan craftsmen, seeing you polish up an entire case and not replacing it by “Time Machine” 😆, it’s mind blowing! I know Citizen only replaces an entire case (especially anything plated one). I don’t know if you have worked on a full titanium Citizen solar powered watches but I’ve recently sent one of my Citizen titanium watches to Citizen with a rose gold plated titanium case (titanium base). They only replace a case, and the case itself costs 15,000 yen+ to replace it. 😅 Overhaul service isn’t too bad though ¥18,000. Lol. Imagine the case with a glass cover costs almost the same as fully getting serviced on a watch. 😅 I’m still contemplating if I should get the case replaced. Haha Love your show btw, amazing!

  • I don't have much knowledge of the world of watches and until recently, I haven't been a fan of them either. My dad just gave me a watch that my grandfather never got to wear because he died. I like the way it looks and I wear it everywhere. Seeing this video makes me appreciate watches in general. There are so many moving parts and the time that goes into just assembling it is awesome. It's even better to see one resorted. Great video man.

  • Perfect timing - I have one of these with a silver dial and steel case, the chrono dial hands do not engage properly and the day adjuster seldom works. Now I can see how all the bits fit together :-)

    • Don't do it if you don't have a lot of experience with restoring watches. The chronograph mech is a bit tricky and the flyback needs a lot of grease in the right places to work smoothly.

  • Awesome skills, never knew so many tiny intricate parts made up something to measure a thing that we can't even see. Time. So cathartic to 'watch' and not only see you repair and replace parts but the tools and machinery that you use are also fascinating to behold. Just a random KZhead video but 'what a video' many respects to you.

  • Great job done. I admire watchmakers. They really pay attention to the Details instead of looking at the so called bigger picture as being presented to us daily by the media. I personally like these vintage Charakters among quality watch brands. I love automatic watches, like Zenith, Omega, also Seiko and Citizen but I got the 1802 hand winding which is a very decent watch. Thank you for your video

  • This uses Citizen's patented stacked wheel selector, which they developed as a simpler-to-manufacture alternative to the column wheel. It uses a pair of one way toothed gear wheels riveted together rather than a single-piece machined wheel. Frederique Constant's new manufacture chronograph movement uses a similar system but with a star shaped wheels which provide an improvement to smoothness of operation.

  • I have an 8110 Bullhead in natural silver finish that my wife bought for me when we got married (almost 39 years ago). She got it from the clearance section at the Kadena Air Base exchange. Love the watch. You have inspired me to take it in for service as it is running a bit slow. And it is more than I would want to try myself.
