Thanks Matthew. An awesome video which has made me now subscribing and will be watching in detail. I’ve not seen a better video for explaining what you’re seeing as you strip down a clock. I learnt a lot!

I hope you are right. Read has a lot of skills and contacts to bring some real content to this chunk of KZitem between restorations / machining / horology.

I'm very excited about seeing more of your work. About a year ago I seen your verge pocket watch video.. I said to myself only one video? I need more 🤣 Also I really appreciated your chat at the end of the video about the repair revolution. I've started a channel of my own all about repairing all sorts of things. Just to get the ball rolling, people need to know. "hey you can fix this" instead of sending it to the scraps bin. Anyway cheers from Canada 🍻 Keep up the good work

Very watchable. This movement is a very good subject as it contains a plethora of problems, some obvious and some subtle. A good opportunity to explain both the issues and your skills of diagnosis.

Hi Matthew just found this video better late than never I suppose, very nice explanation as usual but I will stick to the torsion clocks although I have subscribed because I enjoy watching. Cheers Dell

Thanks for your comment! Funnily that is exactly the thing I am after. I have been looking for one for some months now. The ones I have seen have either been re-finished or out of my price range. I saw one a couple of months ago that was perfect but I was the under-bidder so I will keep looking! Thanks again, Matthew.

This is an excellent video, except I heard you say third wheel.. now I am confused. I have a triple fusee bracket clock from the 1820s, and this will greatly help me when I finally decide to take it apart and clean it. It pretty much runs perfectly fine except the strike/silence does not work. That will be the first thing I will work on. Too bad the clock in the video does not have the strike/silence.

Dear Matthew thank You for so nice video. Can I ask your advice on very same movement? Posibly it can help to repair your movement in right way also. I see You miss one part on strike side thats why spring on left side that pushes "start quarter chime" lever so bent and ugly. I was trying to put link on nawcc forum, but probably this violates youtube rules.

Yes, the first spring that bent in a strange way over the counting rack limiter pin. I think there is some absent parts near the end of this spring, You can see couple of free holes there. I think there should be specific limiter for this spring. I have drawen some picture but I don't know how to share this here. I have really very similar movement. Made by Thomas Best however, probably yours made also by him.
