I didn't know at the time of making the video but it acts as a fuse. If the day or date is changed at the wrong time and something breaks, it will only be the plastic 👍

Well done. I'd like to learn a bit about you if you don't mind. Are you a professional watchmaker? Retired? Active? Expert amateur watchmaker? Absolutely outstanding video. Also I love seeing watchmaker's setups and 'offices'. Cheers to you mate.

2 years ago I bought an omega Seamaster 300m from 1999 from a grey market dealer. It was a nice store but the day after I bought it, I noticed the watch stopped at night. And it didn’t run within chronometer specifications. I brought it back and they serviced it and since then it works fine. I wonder if they just tried to get away without servicing the watch.

I'm afraid I couldn't tell whether it was serviced or not. It's only when you open it and start inspecting it you'll find out whether it was serviced or not.

Even the very best watches need regular servicing , which explains why so many people just go with a quartz watch which will probably last 20 or more years with care .

"seiko automatic 17 jewels 7005" ... nope "seiko automatic 19 jewels 7005" ... 🤣 48:15 the date setting mechanism is much simpler than the one one any 4R35/NH35 ... 😉 i suspect they use the "gear backlash" on the 4R35/NH35, not as a "common default", but for its "disengaging effect" if the crown is in "date configuration" for a while ... that was not the case on this movement ? would it be a problem ? 😐 { no other idea why otherwise, they put so many gears on that part for the 4R35/NH35 ?🤔 }

I gambled on a birth year Seiko at an estate sale. It has very little power reserve, runs slow and is strikingly handsome for it's age - all just like me! One day I might have it serviced just like this but that'd cost 3x what the watch is worth. For now I'll enjoy it for all of it's antique charm.

Curious. Epilame is used to hold oil in specific places. Pallet fork jewels, escape wheel, wheel pivots, Inca block jewels. Ive heard the if the fork of the pallet fork has epilame on it, the impulse jewel hitting it will create a fine powder and potentially damage the parts. I would think the would be the same might happen with epilame on the second hand. There is no oil used on this so why the epilame? Just wondering... Is lubeta the same as epilame? Im also under the impression lubeta is used for the automatic winding parts. Great video!!
@MacroTime28800
@MacroTime28800 7 күн бұрын
Glad you enjoyed it! Epilame repels lubrication. I run the movement for a short while to wear out the epilame on the pallet stones and the escape wheel. Then I lubricated the escapement. Yes, that’s correct, the roller jewel hitting the pallet fork causes an issue if the whole pallet fork is dipped in epilame. The second wheel, I see your point. I’ve never heard of anyone mentioning any issues with it and Rolex service guide tells you to treat it with epilame. Lubeta is a lubricant, epilame alters the tension of the surface to repel lubricants 👍
