If I was 40 years younger, this would be my pursuit.

I have watched a few of his videos. His series on rebuilding a Glashutte M. Gobmann was very cool.

what a true craftsman unbelievable

I'm so impressed. I'm 54 do you think I could apprentice for him.

Go for it Gene!
You only live once.

Wow, an incredidible amount of work. A question for anyone who might know. The dial that was on it originally, with the small glass window exposing the escapement. Would that have been original to the watch or added later ?

The original dial never had a glas window!
It is possible that the dial with the roman numerals was originaly with the watch but the window was a later alteration to expose the ruby cylinder.

Thanks Gerald, I thought that might be the case. That was a beautiful restoration
