The details you provided here will be really helpful as I graduate into automatic movements. Your teaching style is excellent and very much appreciated! Bravo!

Very entertaining and educating with excellent explanations and 'in depth' information. Again, in my opinion, much better than the other channels with - in some cases - hundreds of thousands subscribers. How come you "only" have 30K subscribers?

Invaluable info I have seen from no other watch repair channel. Thanks, Alex. Something I tried for cleaning parts is _CRC QD Electronic Cleaner_ in the red spray can. I think QD stands for Quick Dry, which it certainly does. It's rather common, so they have it at Wal-Mart and many other stores. It's quick drying and when you look at the ingredients it is essentially HEXANE. Am I effing up for some counterintuitive reason?. It sure seems like a cool option. It sprays hard so, of course, don't use it directly on balance wheels and so on. It works well, goes a long way, and doesn't cost much by comparison. The last I got at Wal-Mart was around $8 a can. Like everything else, it has gone up recently.

Thanks for the great great videos and sharing the knowledge. I stumbled upon a video that indicates apparently seiko advices a certain position for the rotor when one is trying to install it back. Apparently the hole on the first reduction wheel must line up with the balance cock peg and the hole on the right wing of the rotor in order to have the pawls at their lowest point around the ratcheting wheel in order for the pawls to have the most travel hence better efficiency of winding I am guessing . The demonstration which was performed rotor-less while rotating the first reduction wheel manually showed it takes four to five revolutions of the first reduction wheel to advance the ratchet wheel by one tooth if the rotor is installed the way Seiko suggests. But it takes seven to eight revolutions of the first reduction wheel to advance the ratchet wheel by one tooth if the rotor is installed the complete opposite side, it all happens due to positioning of pawls.

I have some Nye synthetic watch oil that I could mix and feel better about it, considering the cost of 9010, and the fact that I only have a 2ml vial of 9010 to work from.
