I may have taken this one slightly too far… 😂
Believe it or not, underneath all that damage is an Omega Speedmaster Triple Date.
It arrived as a complete box-and-papers set but years of moisture have absolutely destroyed the watch.
Would you attempt to save it, or is this one destined for the parts bin?
Full restoration coming to the channel 👀 make sure your subscribed your not going to want to miss it!

Would you have saved this? 🧐
This WWII field watch has seen some things. After decades in the dirt, we’re stripping it down to the 15-jewel A. Schild movement to see if it still has a heartbeat.

New video just dropped 🎬
Absolute rollercoaster on this one…
what started as a simple restoration of this 1960s Omega Seamaster 562 turned into chaos 😅
And the ending… yeah… didn’t see that coming.

Just dropped a new video 👇
I opened up a £40 Fake Rolex to see what’s actually inside… and honestly I wasn’t expecting this movement.
Curious what you all think, have you ever opened a fake watch before?
