    It’s great to see a father passing on his knowledge to his son.

      I agree.

      The internal number is a global helpline to report child Labour! Only kidding..! Superb to see just how easy watch tinkering is. Child’s play..

      It's also great to see the son listening and respecting his father! I wish my grandkids were so well behaved.

    This video embodies the whole reason why I have followed you all these years. I've commented many times on how I've loved the best of your videos when I hear your gentle voice guiding your children. And now here they are, working with you. Stay safe and I look forward to more of your father and son(s) videos. 🙂

    Teaching the next generation. I hope my sons will be watching your sons do this 25 years from now.

  • @gmichaelhall
    @gmichaelhall Před 14 dny +18

    Arguably, one of the most sublime yet profound moments in a Fathers life is saying to his son, “Go on then”.
    It’s an unspoken transpose of “ I’m right here and got your back “
    There is no video on the YT that contains such poetic content encased in a real world demonstration of watch restoration.
    1 of 1 scores 10 out of 10 and a star is born ⭐️
    Be well Joe and thanks

    Bravo to you Joe. You've taught Trouble a heckuva lot more than how to restore a watch. And it really shows.

    As I sit here with tears rolling down my face and remembering my father and all he showed me,as God took him way to young .I remember his words ..”treat how you would want to be treated”

    • @theoldbigmoose
      @theoldbigmoose Před 14 dny +3

      Mine too. My Pops had "golden hands" and could fix anything. He did his best to pass it all onto me. I treasured our relationship, he too passed way too soon.

    I am a retired Dentist from many years ago. We had to cast and polish our inlays and crowns ourselves. Watching you polish these watches brings back good
    memories and gives me a warm feeling.
    I also love to hear you speaking with your son. He seems a sweet and beautiful young man.

    Joe, what I love the most about this video is your patience and loving direction you give to Trouble. He is lucky to have a dad like you. Train up a child in the way that he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it. Blessings to you both.

You’re a true master of your craft and now we fans of all things horological, are blessed again from you. Cheers mate. Peace ☮️ love ❤️ respect ✊.

    @jacobbwalters8133 Před 14 dny +1

    What a wonderful and sentimental episode. I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge with your children. As an educator, I think that it’s incredibly important that we not let our skills die with us. We spend a lot of time and energy mastering our crafts. To leave the world without passing that knowledge on would be a great injustice to future generations.

    What a lucky watch-to be touched by angelic hands guided by a master.

  • @katharineskilesdaline4535

    I taught my son how to use a sewing machine when he was a teenager and now he's pushing 40 and still uses the old clunker I gave him to sew and repair things. Even small things you teach your children can lead to lifelong use of those skills and you can be happy in your dotage (I'm 71) that your child benefited from your tutelage. Good for you doing this!!

    OMG, this is just too cute! "I'm going to remove the canon pinion" - that's not a future watchmaker...that's a future CZcamsr you have on your hands there! Seriously, I haven't smiled as much as when watching this for ages!

  • @alancampbell1008
