I do a full service of a non-running Wittnauer watch from the 1940s. The crown is falling out and I got it on eBay for $75 - can I get it running? ETA 1080 movement. Instagram for updates between videos: @timeless.restorations

Great work and video. ...ask 3 watch makers about correct lubrication get 9 different options...Regarding the pallet pivot question, as you say the common modern position is not. But at least some Seiko movements have oiling on their charts. And when it comes to older watches the accepted practice at the time was to lightly oil the pivots. I don't oil modern movements, but for older movements I give a nod to the old masters and the what they did when the watches were made and do oil. Another way to oil pallets kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qLWnmNWouZ2sYn0.htmlsi=jfhZFNDAVhN2P2Lc&t=1100

I just started looking at watch repair videos hoping to learn something. The first thing that I learned is that I will not be trying to repair my broken watches. I have 4 that I want fixed, two say they are Rolex but the guy I got them from said they are fakes but one is still worth $600. I don't know if that's true... The other two are a Timex and a Casio. What will it cost? Will I be able to get an estimate without spending a lot of money? Good video, hope your channel catches on and grows. Best wishes young man. Edit: any chance you're in northern California?

Unfortunately I'm on the east coast! It shouldn't be too hard to find someone that does watch repairs near you, and they should be able to quote you for a standard clean/service upfront.
