It's not "the Ukraine". It's just "Ukraine". Sticking the definite article in front of it turns the country into a mere region. You don't say "the Berkshire" or "the Kent", as they are definite, well-defined and distinct entities. You do talk about "the North" or "the East Midlands", because those are vaguer generalities. Ukraine is a sovereign nation, not a vague generality. I did enjoy the video, though!! You narration style is much appreciated, in particular. Nice watch, too. (PS. "Irregardless" isn't a word!)

@anteneupitra Russian troll go screw yourself! You and your government signed a treaty in 1994 guaranteeing Ukraine's independent existence as a sovereign country. It's called the Budapest Memorandum on Security Assurances. Article 1 of the treaty says, "The Russian Federation, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and The United States of America reaffirm their commitment to Ukraine, in accordance with the principles of the CSCE Final Act, to respect _the independence and sovereignty and the existing borders of Ukraine_. Now, I know you lot can't be trusted to keep your word for more than 20 years, but your President signed that on behalf of your people. And so no, it's just "Ukraine", not "the Ukraine". It says it there, in black and white, in the treaty itself.

Balance cock versus balance bridge is not dependent on number of screws but the position of the screws. Balance cock may have one or two screws on same side versus bridge which has two screws; one on either side creating a ‘bridge’across the balance. Love the video! The metal on the balance pivot is much more brittle (hardened ?) than the American or European counterparts. Thanks for the video, Geoff.

I think the split screen looks great. My advice to you is to make the video be what you personally love and can be proud of, like any project. Those who appreciate it will appreciate, and those who are critical are just critical people in general. Personally, I think the little subtle details make a thing come across as finished and professional, whether it's a video, music, a watch, or a painting. Non-filmmakers would never spot some details, but sometimes they just know something feels polished (or off). Anyhow, great video!! Keep up the great work.

Im really into it and i thought that in 2023 i give it a shot, but where to start? I'm from Poland and burgeon stuff is out of my reach. How you deal with cleaning and oiling?

A moment holder, a magnifier 4x should do to start an ultrasonic cleaner, oil and oilers that will get you started. Ultrasonic cleaner can be had for around 50 euro you only need a small one. I'd also recommend Rodico and peg wood and pith wood. If you want i can link everything on cousinsuk you need to get started. You really don't need that much to just get started with the basics.

I did not have a timegrapher when i started, it's for sure nice to have even essential if you get serious but my advice would be just grab the very essentials and get started. Oil is the expensive part but you don't use a lot I think the oil i have will last me for years, when you fist see the price of oil per ml it can seem overwhelming but 2ml of oil is going to do a lot of watches more than a hobbyist will get through in a couple of years probably. Light oil (escape wheel/third wheel/fourth wheel/balance pivots): Moebius 9010 Heavy oil (centre wheel/barrel arbor/barrel/motion work): Moebius HP 1300, or Moebius D5 Pallet oil: Moebius 941/2 Keyless work: Moebius 8301 grease, or D5 if on a tight budget Mainspring: Moebius 8200 grease Is the basics of oil, however and i'm going to get roasted for this if you are just starting you can get away with just Moebius 9010, Moebius HP 1300 and Moebius 8200 grease the total cost of which should be around $60 usd so it's not as bad as you might think.

My preference is these simple movements and I have to wash the parts by hand with lighter fluid and alcohol and a little brush. I let the parts dry on Paper. I also try not to disassemble the main spring unless its absolutely necessary because of the risk of breaking them. I do without in other words. Nice work you are doing. That is one lucky movement as it is getting the royal treatment.

If I'm not mistaken, you removed the dialside shocksetting? When putting the balance complete back in for cleaning, I always leave the shock setting as well to minimize the chance of damaging the pivots. I clean the shock setting afterwards with pegwood and a one-dip. But on the other hand, I use one of those elma elites, and that might put more strain on the parts than the ultrasonic cleaner you use..

I like the split screen when it matches with the operation being performed. For example, 3 screens to show each screw being removed in the barrel bridge. Its the same thing three times, so three screens is a nice way to present and display this all at once. However, when different operations are being performed, I prefer to see them sequentially as it is then easier to follow the logic of how the parts all fit together.

The spring T alignment. Put the spring in the barrel. Put the arbor in a vice. Insert the arbor into the spring and rotate it until the the T lines up withe T slot of the barrel.

Thanks for the tip :) I will give that a try if I mess up the alignment on the initial spring insertion

The "в" is there because in the Cyrillic alphabet that is V - for Vostok. Б is the Cyrillic letter for the English B. I love the videos. I've been fascinated by mechanical watches since I found my grandfathers pocket watch and played with it as a kid. One of my first watches was a Vostok and it's still chugging along. You're doing a fantastic job with the videos. I've been getting into watchmaking and repair as a hobby lately myself, and though I have thought about making videos for others to follow along from the beginning the idea of doing so is a bit daunting. It's great to follow along with someone else that's learning as they go.

I am glad you are enjoying the videos, and I wish you the best of luck with your own watchmaking. May all your springs stay where you put them.

Well done! I like the fact that you leave in the mistakes… I sure wish someone would make some 3D printed adapters in kind of a set to sell like you made. Like you said money is not floating around everywhere nowadays 😂. But for we hobbies something like that would be amazing to find . Thanks for the great video, looking forward to the next one .

Thank you. I'll make all the 3d printed stuff available on my website at some point I was thinking of doing a video about using 3d printing in watchmaking. Even if you don't have a printer there are services which will do it for you pretty reasonably priced. I'll drop a post on Instagram when I've got it all online :)

Great job! The first of yours David I’ve watched. I’d say that the split screen is nice but not necessary, save your time. Also I’d say no need to see all the parts put into a cleaning basket, we’ve all seen that before, one or two is enough for me. I’d also say your oiler might be a bit too big, or a tip is you only put half the oil on the same oiler. Oh, I’m also just a hobbyist. I liked your 3D printed part on your pusher, I’m going to make one! What diameter is yours? I’ve subscribed and looking forward to your next one. I’ll watch the Zenith one next!

Thank you. Thanks for the tips also appreciate it. The 3d printed pusher, well I printed a bunch of them form around 16mm to 28mm i think if I remember right. Size of the crystal dictates the size you use of course and they are so fast to print not to mention easy to design, I'll just print the size i need at the time stick it in a bag. Lose the bag and end up printing another one next time :D Let me know what you think about the restoration I did on the Zenith case i'd be interested to hear your thoughts.

Hi. There is a soviet caliber similar to Zenith 135. They bought the patent. It's the 2809 and it is present on 3 brands: Vostok (golden), Volna (silver) and Almaz (silver and with a modified balance). Only some Vostok are classified as chronometer - They say "Precision Class" on the dial, right under the brand. Nice work. Thanks for showing :)
@Saving-Time

It's a very cool movement. The chronometer version has a swan neck regulator on it, I believe. I'm pretty sure I'll pick one up at some point. Thanks for the info

@@Saving-Time They all have swan neck regulator with the exception of Almaz but, as I said before, only Vostok "Precision Class" was certified as Chronometer. There are also Vostok with golden movement that didn't pass the chronometer test and they don't have "Precision Class" writen on the dial. It is a sought after watch and there are many frankenstein on sell. Good luck with the hunting :)
