  Thank you so much for the shout out Marshall! I’m glad that my, let’s be honest, poorly produced videos compared to yours, can be of some help! I really should get working on another one. 😅 Great work on the Rolex!

  LCD Soundsystem and Wristwatch Revival wasn't the crossover I expected, but it was the crossover I needed

  Exactly what I needed right now… Dealing with a lot of stress and missing my mom who died recently. Might be able to catch some sleep after this. Thank you <3

  I have no idea why, but these videos are incredibly therapeutic.  Absolute legend!

  LCD played Glastonbury this year 2024. If you watch the gig you can see him wearing this.

  Speaking as a retired engineer, that was one of the most exciting episodes I have seen. WOW ! So much excellent work on a beautiful piece of precision machinery. Lovely work and did it pay off too ? Fantastic, thankyou for the enjoyment and excitement. Am 77 years old, way too old to start that, but to see it in action like this is very satisfying. I hope you know what I mean.

  Have you ever thought that the Rolex crown is actually a stylised image of a watchmakers screwdriver carousel?

  I want to thank you Marshall.  Because of your calm, collected, and thorough videos, I decided that this indeed can be done by even me.  You inspired me to venture into the world of horology, and in the wee hours of this morning my first all original build was born.  It has a Seiko NH36A heart beating inside a 40mm Sub style stainless steel case.  With parts ordered from eBay, and your "anyone can do it" inspiration I now have a nice watch that is all my own.  Thanks again, keep up the great work.

  Marshall I have a Seiko I would like for you to service. It’s a 4006 bell matic bought in 1969 in Japan as a gift &nbsp;to me from my brother. It is running and all original except for the crystal replaced in the 70’s. <br>I’m 80 yrs old and want to get it serviced so I can give it to one of my sons or grandson. This is special watch for me and I don’t want to send to Seiko since I’ve seen only bad reviews. You’re one of the best craftsmen I’ve seen on YouTube and really want you to service the watch.

  LCD Soundsystem is my favorite band and MTG is my favorite hobby, I wouldn&apos;t have expected this crossover.

  What I love about watch repair and servicing is the fact the watch may look dishevled and dirty on the outside as old as it may be, but when you open it up it looks as clean and new as the day it was made!
