Cameron Weiss, master watchmaker and founder of family-owned Weiss Watch Company, dives into watchmaking in this new series.
Watch polishing is an art form and craft that stands on its own besides watchmaking.

Wow I have a new found appreciation for the craft of polishing. I guess I didn't realize how much actually goes into bringing out all those different finishes. It seems so therapeutic at the same time. Thank you for sharing.

Even though I know all of this pretty well (being into watches and knives and having experience in a metal fab shop) it’s still very interesting to hear him explain it

Wonderful video. I just subscribed. Quick question, for a mirror finish diamond paste vs white rouge. Any preference and why? Best wishes from Singapore 🇸🇬

This is dependent on the material being polished and the method used to polish. If using a buffing wheel for larger parts with stainless or gold I will use a rouge made by Menzerna and a soft cotton wheel. Diamond paste is very good for smaller parts or my preference is Simichrome which is less expensive. For flat movement parts I only use diamond paste on a zinc block.

That depends on the watch you are refinishing. Usually fine grit wheel will be good for most.

Quality content. Just started learning polishing after assembling movements and watches for a number of years professionally. How would you polish some simple hairline scratches from a polished section, just using a polishing cloth?
@thewatchmakersworkshop
@thewatchmakersworkshop 6 ай бұрын
if the scratches are not deep at all then I would use a leather buff glued on wood with some simichrome paste to polish nicely by hand. really depends on the shape of the part and how deep the scratches are. I never use a polishing cloth.

Thanks I will give it a try. I found Bergeon 1282-A and it seems to be what you're describing. Its a rectangle link in a bracelet.
