this was fascinating! How long did it take beginning to end to service this watch?
Would have liked to see the water and pressure testing too. |

The pressure test was recorded but Cameron had to cut a lot of scenes to make the video to keep people's attention and not too long.

Superlative!! (Watchmaker, watch, facilities and production)..
Was any regulation needed to get it spot on? |

Fantastic video Vanessa!
![]() I have a question though, I never use my brass tweezers and mostly use the dumont nickel Nr 12 since it has smaller tips and won't scratch the rhodium coating either, is there an advantage to using the brass one? |

Thank you all for the kind comments.
I've been so fortunate to find the career I was born to do, and to have the opportunity to work for a great company with fun people and awesome flexibility! I cannot ask for more. I LOVE my job and I am so happy Cameron gave me the chance to share my passion with all of you! (BTW, that's Cameron's car in the video ![]()
