The case is fine but dirty, the glass is shattered, hands and dial are ruined, the radioactive tritium is crumbling and the movement is not running.

You are really an artist at putting together these videos. So enjoyable to watch. When it comes to music, video length, and other choices, follow your instincts. Don’t worry about what people comment one way or another. The joy you have in creating these videos comes across to us. Part of that is your joy of the process of creation, including putting in whatever music or transitions or captions you feel like including. I enjoy all the choices you’ve made. Thank you.

What a superb job, the work done on this watch was incredible. I love how far you’ve progressed as a channel, bringing us viewers, such how high-quality content. The filming, the close-ups, the image quality, the editing and production have gotten exponentially better. I love seeing your new machines and tools. I like the music on the videos, but man, listening to the clicks, snaps, ticks, etc. of the watch and you working, without any other noise never gets old. Thank you!
