Nice job. And props to the watch's owner for using his timepiece to the max.

I received an old Armitron diver-style watch. Appears to be from the early-2000s. I rotated the friction bezel, and gunk started to be pushed out. I decided to do a complete disassembly, and the amount of dirt, debris, lint, dust, lotion, DNA, and whatever else that was discovered was truly gag-inducing. It's now completely cleaned and reassembled. Nice little Omega 300 style watch that runs on a Miyota 2115. Has a nicely aged, cracked plexi crystal. It's now on a tropic style strap. She's a keeper.

1:16 Oh my god! KALLE! I THOUGHT IT WAS A SOLID ENDLINK! AHHHH! I don’t understand why you don’t wear full latex gloves

Great job, Kalle! The case and bracelet look loke new :) I love that you try to keep it as close to original factory condition as possible. It’s easy to forget that watchmaking goes beyond just servicing movements. One needs a lot of skills to restore a watch or a clock. I guess that’s why many great modern watchmakers come from restorations.

I made a comment in the last video about no solid end links.. Looks like the owner invested some time to crate solids..

I'm loving these results videos! What grit do you use for the matte brushed finish?

Were you able to fix the chisel marks on the case back?

That wrist schmutz doesn't bother me. I've seen some that had mushrooms growing in them.

My jaw dropped when i saw that. I was shocked and horrified. I’ve pestered my guy friends to clean their watch bracelets.

@@ChronoglideWatchmaking thanks 🙏🏻 but it talks about it and does actually show a real example being done. I’m hoping to see some real examples with the process being actually done.
