A beautiful restoration Joe, and a beautiful message for peace. Peace be with you and your family.

Happy Christmas, my friend. History is full of scoundrels who wage wars to stay in power. But it’s also filled with good people who try hard to make a difference … and you make a small but important positive contribution to the daily lives of thousands. Thank you.

I’ll never get tired of your words Joe. Your craftsmanship is amazing , but your words are striking and beautiful and hold so much meaning . Thank you .

The most wonderful part of these videos is your relationship with your son. Beautiful. You're a good dad.

If I could press like a thousand times, I would, your work is simply stunning. Thank you for sharing your art xxx

Being partially blind, the small pieces you work with, and how beautiful everything looks whenever you finis so amazing. I transfer from my phone to the TV to be able to see better. Keep up the wonderful work you are doing 🎉❤!!!

I love how you show as much care and attention to detail on what many would see as an inferior quartz movement. Thank you for sharing your work with us.

Thank you for a wonderful video this Christmas and thank you for calling attention to the horror unfolding in Gaza with such class and respect.

All the best for the season and the new year, Joe. Trouble isn't trouble anymore, he's sprouting faster than a weed. And you can tell the Accountant that the investment in the improved camera equipment has paid off in spades.

Thank you Joe, to you and your family a wonderful Christmas and prosperous new year. I wish people like you were running the world.

I've never seen a technique used like this with agate, that is amazing and going to help tremendously with some of my projects! Thank you.

Thanks for keeping the real in your thoughts and prayers, speaking out where we feel voiceless, and expressing so humanely what we rage about.

That was almost as impressive as the original video. It simply never occurred to me the quartz movement, bear with me, is simply the movement! The dial side looks pretty much the same. This, combined with, you don't need fancy tools just attention to detail, made this video one of the best imho. Simple, elegant, efficient.

Love your videos and your sentiments ❤

25 minutes of interesting history, repair and beauty is the perfect salve for these trying times. ❤

Great video, watch and message of peace. Salute Sir!

superb as always tough times i know but your path is filled with love from us all ,your skill and words are a small reminder that good is alive and well.

Brilliant and very enjoyable restoration as always. If only the powers that be abided by your philosophy the world would be a better place where all tribes had the same mindset of peace and love. I pray for that to be. Thanks for all the hard work you put into your videos.

Keep on posting Mr. Watchmaker Nekkid ! I don’t Cole t or repair but I have found your “timely” comments over the last few years to be accurate and helpful in hearing and seeing a different world. Also watching and listening to your videos is very calming. Keep on posting as you wish !

From South Africa, thank you for your videos. You inspired me to consider watchmaking as a hobby at the ripe age of 45.

Sir, it has been a while. So glad to see you back on the channel. I have missed you.

A wonderful Christmas gift! Thank you Nekkid! God bless you and your family.

Best wishes. Refreshing to see the tradition of a master craftsman handing down his skills to his child. I don't envy your decision one day when you will need to entrust him with the responsibility of restoring a irreplaceable antique. Have faith in the next generation.

Another great video, your skill at turning a piece of junk into a diamond never ceases to amaze me, best wishes to you and your family for Christmas and the new year.

Nothing is at last sacred but the integrity of your own mind.

I’ve been using a tank for forty years. Hands down my favourite style. Nice to know I’m back in fashion.

You are a kind hearted person Joe, so deep within your beautiful heart you feel for the suffering of the oppressed people 😢 .May the Lord keep you and your loved ones peaceful....Ameen.

Love you Joe, (and Trouble too!) thank you for your (non)commentary on current events, spot on! Wishing you and your family peace and happiness in the coming year

You are such an amazing person Joe god bless you and your family and may you always have a voice to speak up about the injustice in the world.. peace and LoVe ..FREE 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

Thank you, Joe, for sharing your skills, charisma and warmth with us. Peace, love and God bless to you and your lovely family! 😊😊😊❤

BEST channel (and father) on KZfaq. Happy holidays ole bean. 🥰

Trouble has perfect fingers for taking up guitar and piano. Give him the gift that no one can ever take away, the ability to create and play music. 😊

Such a good dad. From a fellow dad, I can tell by how your son reacts to you. Very beautiful.

I do not click faster for a any other new upload but from your Channel. Happy Holidays, Joe, for you and your family. 🎄🎉🎉

Thank you for your good wishes to everyone of your viewers and very best wishes to you and your family. Love all of your videos but especially those about Cartier watches, I have loved those for 50 years or so. All the best for 2024.

Joe, I’m sure we haven’t the foggiest what you could be referring to? 🤔😉 Big Love and Thanks for all your wisdom and humanity through 2023.❤

Your workmanship is inspirational but your humanity is a joy to behold in a time with so much selfishness. Thank you Joe.

Happy Christmas - thanks so much for the entertaining films and thoughtful messages. Sadly, there is no great watchmaker in the sky who can magically restore everything - but if enough of us try to fix the bits we can around us we’ll get ourselves to a better place again.

Hi joe welcome back mate hope your fine and well.

Keep voicing my friend, our voices will be heard soon. I'm in Jordan and my wife is from Nablus. I watch your videos alot and I do also watch restoration in Amman as a hobby because you have inspired me and many others of watch making and repairs across the globe. Your a squire my friend and say hi back to the UK as I'm originally from Portsmouth 😅

You are still my most favourite watchmaker.

I hope you take some time to think about all the happiness you brought to the people that watch your videos. It made them a bit nicer for a while. Have a good Holiday Season!

I love watching you giving love to these pieces of art. I wish I could study to become a watchmaker, but unfortunately that ship sailed the moment I got my nerve damage at school. Doesn't mean the fire isn't still burning. Thank you for another year of great videos!

Your effin awesomeness, I don't even know you, but I truly appreciate you

Peace be with you. And sincere thanks for your thoughtfulness and artistry. I am not a watchmaker, nor craftsperson. Your videos always sing of hope somehow--perhaps because you find a way to put so many things together--with such intention...

thank you for your beautiful words my friend stay as you are. merry christmas

Beautiful watch matched by your skill and comments.

Wow it was great to meet you and letting us in on your travels through this life. I appreciate watching a tradesmen, as I am one myself in historic homes. Sometimes the best things in us just flow. It feels good. Positive non partial content. Love it!!!!

Bro I love your work, especially bringing awareness on a different matter. Keep up all your good work,

Great video! I love hearing your little boy and how you interact with him. I'm just a hobbyist watch maker, and sometimes I get frustrated when my little boys come in and want to play with everything and start touching all the tools. I should include them more in my tinkering like you do. Thank you for your example of kindness and patience. It's an art we should pass on to our kids. Cheers!

Your sense of humor is dark and amazing. I love it, brother! I’m a veteran, and an engineer. Cutting up is like a time machine, lol.

What a lovely gift. Merry Christmas!

Joe, I don't know what I look forward to more: watching you work or your blessings of encouragement and love at the end of your videos. Now, I have a *third* thing to add to the list: outtakes/songs!

Thank you Joe, I always learn something new, the burnishing trick is a blinder! As for your wishes and prayers, I like you hope they will come to pass.

Call yourself a watchmaker? Magician more like! Couldn't believe what I was seeing - fantastic skill you have there- wonderful work 🥰.

Happy Christmas, needed something cheerful to 'watch'

Joe, much appreciation for you're work and your wishes for the coming year. The world would beat better place with more peace love and understanding.❤

You have a beautiful family. Thanks for the humble sayings. Forget the watch family comes first

You are a very clever fellow, lol. Thank you for all you do!!

Your work is exceeded only by your message of hope for the human condition. Prosperity for you and your family in the future.

I love the wish list comments and like you, I live in hope for humanity. God bless you x

Rumor has it that I learned of the tank from you and never forgot about it, Cartier sunglasses is the only thing I wear to look at my tanks

Happy tidings to my favorite watch maker.

My friend. I love your composure and compassion never change a thing it's very rare in this world ❤❤❤

Thank you again for sharing your skill and your commentary. I will keep coming back for both.

Your videos are quite good. I thank you for your honesty and your humanity, and as I watch this I am hopeful for the future of the human race. You are a good man.

Well said young man. Never seen burnishing done before and what a lovely finish. Outstanding job as always Merry Christmas

Yey! Merry Christmas to a nekkid fans and Mr Nekkid himself ! Xx

Awesome outro... Loved the sentiment and couldn't agree more. Awesome job with the watch by the way. 👍

That's a CLASSIC design for a reason! Love the channel.

Merry Christmas! We need more people like you in this world!

This is a fantastic restoration. I especially like that you could revive the original gold plating yet retain much of the patina. But mostly, thank you for you kind Christmas wishes. I wish you equally warm tidings.

All the best to you and yours. Many thanks for the hours of entertaining horological de/re-constructions. I will never pick up the tweezers myself, but it is extremely engaging to watch.

The burnishing method is really cool, I've learnt some really cool things from your channel, thanks. You continue to be the best.

Another excellent refurb and video, love the music and the new cuff! Peace to you and yours.

Your thinking and approach are sound and wonderful. Even as it applies to watch restoration. Wishing you and family only the best.

A lovely way to wind down after a lovely Christmas Day here in Australia with my family Joe. All the very best to you & your family at this time.🙏🏻🍻🇦🇺

Another beautiful restoration. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and your wonderful messages of peace!

Your kindness shines through

Your videos are so good ! Peace and health 🙏🏻

Your narration is so lovely

Cant begin to say how much i appreciate you doing this video.Thank you so much.Oh and the watch renovation was pretty cool as well.Full.marks.

Wonderful as ever Joe. I think some patina is valuable on older watches. N.O.S is soulless. These dings are show the life this watch has lead and will wear them onwards.

Thank you for your wishes! I wish the same for you. Marry Christmas!

interesting and unusual to see a quartz restoration instead of your typical automatic or mechanical work. That's the first time I've seen an agate burnisher demonstrated and I didn't know it could be used for that. Thank you.

What a wonderful present for Christmas you have given us. All the best to you and your listeners. Thank you for a unique restoration.

Enjoyed the barbed comments almost as much as the restoration! 😂 Fantastic work, as always. 😌🤌🏼

I remember getting to open one present on Xmas eve when I was a kid. Thanks for this one Joe, merry Xmas to you and yours ❤

A word for the World 🕊️ ...and another great restoration! Thanks 👍

Merry Christmas to you, the accountant, emo, and trouble. Cheers

Merry Christmas and thanks for your kind words over the years.

Nothing beats a tank on Christmas morning and a nekkid video watch - cheers and all the best 🙏🙏

A beautiful restoration and beautiful prayers at the conclusion. It is a tradition among the ancient Christians that work itself is a powerful form of prayer. Happy holidays to you and your family.

I loved the care you gave this tank! Its beautiful! Happy Holidays!🎄

Great renascence of that classical piece. you did a fabulous job on the case...along with the refurbishing of the quartz movement. Well done Sir. Wishing you and yours all the best this holiday season...........

I loved the first tank video…happy holidays and thanks for your hard work we appreciate it!!!

Isn't it always great to get an unexpected and early Christmas present! Thank you Mr Nekkid. One Love

Well, Joe another scrap watch brought back to life as a beautiful timepiece. Your skill is again self evident and your heart & soul are in the right place. I appreciate that this is clearly not a political channel, but the issues facing the world right now affect us all. Your comments are thoughtful, thought provoking and spot on. Keep well my friend, and let's hope for a more peaceful time in the (hopefully not too distant) future. PS I'll even accept your singing, but don't try to get "trouble" involved!

Don't know any parents that patient with their kids. Plus it's a watch maker enthusiasts' ASMR. I'm customizing my first automatic watch. I'm so glad I subbed. Happy Holidays!

Merry Christmas Joe, you are a true master, the love you show for the watches , your son and humanity is truly inspiring , thank you.
