After browsing YouTube for some Watchfinder & Co videos this was one that sort of stood out to me a bit.

Oy - didn't fully disassemble the watch (left the winding and setting parts in place when they cleaned it), had bare fingers all over the movement during disassembly and worse during assembly after cleaning, and touched it with a big wad of dirty rodico after it was cleaned...I could go on, but some poor practices on display there.
Sorry, I can't turn the watchmaker in me off when I watch these things...

Oh wow, I never clued into those really until they were mentioned. Always glad to hear things like this and learn more about this hobby.

Sorry, I can't turn the watchmaker in me off when I watch these things... While I was watching, I was thinking that Al always uses finger cots. I guess the watchmaker on the vid didn't care about impregnating that Speedie! Thanks for the post, I enjoyed it. |
