WORSE than it looks? Repairing an Elgin B.W. Raymond Antique Pocket Watch with Wind Indicator

Video Description

In this video, I'm going to fix a true collector's item - the 19-jewel B.W. Raymond railroad grade pocket watch with the wind indicator. This pocket watch was manufactured in 1922 and while it was serviced by someone last year, it "still isn't right" according to its owner. How many issues will I uncover? Will I be able to fix them all? If you're looking for an incredible watch repair or antique restoration project, be sure to check out my video! I'll show you how to fix this vintage pocket watch and get it back to working order. #restoration #watchrepair #pocketwatch #elgin Contact info: [email protected] Many of my tools I use are affordable.
