Pretty amazing, although I think the music is the same tune they play on United Airline flights to keep you pacified while waiting for the plane to take off.

No wonder they are so expensive. A cleaning would take all day long. Here I thought they used kids and paid them $.01 an hour.

I got my "Rolex" Daytona from a seedy back alley in Shanghai for 25 bucks. At first, second and third glance it is a dead match right down to the hologram tag on the back. Bezel engraving is immaculate. A real Daytona costs 25 grand.:omg:

When I was 10, I was able to complete all the steps in the 6:45 minute video on my Dad's Buleva.

Well.....all the steps up to 5:22 minutes in the video, when it started the "Reassembly" process.


Pretty good for 10, I'd say. I was only 1:23 off.

That is an AWSOME video, a TRUE CRAFTSMAN at work!

And I thought hand craftsmanship was long dead, just like REAL graphic designers, you know the guys who use to draw all their graphics using Rapidograph pens & ink, using Letraset lettering for display type.

Now days everybody with a computer and some free drawing software is a designer.

Below are photos of me working as a graphics designer at Texas Instruments in the 80's before I had a computer, I created the ET logo on illustration board using pen & ink and type was set using a Varityper typesetter.

I can't say I miss cleaning those pens....

closest I ver came to anything like that was rebuilding a carb in my '63 Chevy, it had 1/1000 of the parts and I still had pieces left over when I was done. Wait, come to think of it fixing some of these wide format printers is pretty damn complicated too.
