Just beautiful, thanks for bringing us along. Every time you quench something in oil in a glass jar I imagine quenching maybe a 3 lb hammer head in oil in a big glass bucket, and videoing, -- better try that outside, should be exciting! Thanks again.

John S Dilsaver

They mentioned you on the Joe Rogan experience! #2231

Tim Barber

You have no idea how beautiful and exceptionally well made, for a watchmaker like me, your whole process and execution is to watch. You pour incredible amount of detail and care to the high horology with all the polishing. I am extremely excited to see the next video!

RakDuhl

Wow, what an amazing display of workmanship. We can tell you truly live your work. Thanks for everything, Chris.

Jose Martinez

Pardon delay. It works fine. Thanks. Great video.

Sean Kirby

Absolutely gorgeous work. True eye candy.

iamdarkyoshi

Excellent video thanks so much ... Have you tried non-Swiss synthetic ruby bushes?

Adam Gill Creations

Love that you've been showing that these techniques are accessible to many hobby machinists! Great work!

James Korman

Went and looked up Rexhepi. I see what you mean :) In an interview with him, he mentioned Philippe Dufour's finishing as an inspiration; but he's taking it up a level.

Duncan Luddite

Thank you mate, I like that style too. I love Rexhep Rexhepi's take on it in particular, he really leans into making that curve as large as it can be - Cheers :)

Clickspring

Thank you Chris! Truly, I love your work and hope you enjoy it as much as we all do!

shane meyer

Beaudiful ! I like the fact that you're going for a curved Anglage (shades of Philippe Dufour), and not flat, and as the light plays around it, while you turn the piece, it looks bang on the whole way. So how long have you been sneakily practising that? Love it.

Duncan Luddite

Thanks Sean, let me know if it works ok now - Cheers :)

Clickspring

Thanks Luke :)

Clickspring

G'day Chris. Might want to check that Vimeo link.

Sean Kirby

Lovely results Chris

Luke Pettit

Would be a nice project!

Clickspring

Thank you mate!

Clickspring

This sounds as if you're working your way up (or down?) towards a fully homemade pocket watch. XD

Maarten Daalder

Absolutely Chris it’s truly such a pleasure to watch your videos as a hobbies watchmaker myself. I absolutely love your attention to detail and the quality you always strive to produce. I gotta say the Anglage you on is those components is what I would expect to see an a Patek Or JLC movement! Just amazing Chris
