·He's a great entertainer I guess, but please don't look to him for proper watchmaking techniques...

·No? He does call himself an amateur so I guess you’re confirming this?

He partly owns a business that services watches, and my understanding is that he's not doing any servicing on watches for that business, so the YT is a separate thing. But that would imply he has trained staff (one hopes!) doing the work that he could ask for advice and learn from. Yet he doesn't seem to take advantage of the resources he has at hand to do so.

·MyRetroWatches and WeekendWatchRepair are both similar channels that IMO are way more honest about how they go about things/their problems/etc, and don't have the annoying "faux surprise because I am doing voice over after everything already happened" voice that I can't undo.
Horology Biology is fun too, but he doesn't do videos all that much lately.
C Spinner Restorations is a guy who REALLY levels up as he goes, he just finished making a watch from scratch.

·He restores and services watches on Youtube and he does commentary. I enjoy his shows it’s entertaining.
I noticed he often skips over difficult or crucial key steps in many of his restorations so I can imagine it is useless for anyone looking on Youtube for a step by step approach to follow.

I just wanna plug Red Dead Restoration. They did a superb job and they actually seem to know what they’re actually doing and is actually an expert at watchmaking, unlike Marshall from Wristwatch Revival.
Regarding Wristwatch Revival, I’m in horology Discord servers with actual watchmakers and they all give Wristwatch Revival a massive thumbs down and critical of them because his methods is actually horrible and too detrimental to the watch, so I wouldn’t really recommend him to send your Omega or whatever watch you have in.
