    Man can create such pieces of intricate genius mechanism but cant stop fighting each other. A good and peaceful new year to all.

    A work of art, and such a wonderful tour inside, so fascinating, thanks

    I wish people would show Gerald Genta the respect he fucking deserves. The man literally pioneered many of the case designs you see today. So much so that his work on movements has gone unnoticed. But he’s one of the top watchmakers in the entire world. Yes, the entire fn world.

    Wow, so interesting. It's mind boggling how the day/month/year/leap year combinations have been reproduced purely through a gear train. That's special. Thank you Kalle for everything that you share, you are truly inspiring. Have wonderful end-of-year activities with your closest family & friends. We'll see you again soon. Cheers!

    New Years Greetings from Waltham, Massachusetts. Home of the Waltham Watch Company.
    The old factory with its giant windows facing the river is still there. I am building a collection of their beautiful pocket watches.
    Great channel, very informative.

    Yes, only the highest-end watches have the perpetual calendar and/or the minute repeater and/or the tourbillion. All mechanical, no electronics. Amazing talent to design and build such things. And of course most appreciated by those who know how to look!

    Hoi Kalle Ik wil jou en je team fijne feestdagen toe wensen en een gelukkig nieuwjaar. Jullie hebben er voor gezorgd dat ik heel veel plezier beleef aan mijn hobby, waar ik nu 1 jaar mee bezig ben. Ik ben besmet met het horloge virus. Vrienden noemen me al, Freddy tiktak. Mooi om te zien hoe gepassioneerd je bent. Ik kan met hetzelfde gevoel vertellen over mijn horloges. Hoewel het allemaal redelijk goedkope exemplaren zijn, is het superleuk ze weer om te toveren naar een perfect lopend en mooi sierraad.
    Dank jullie wel. Groeten Freddy.

    Good afternoon dear Kalle,
    May Allah almighty keep you safe and happy always 🙏
    As I am an old watchmaker from the sixties and still doing some bits mostly renovating some vintage watch and clocks.
    I get to repair some old pieces and I have to make parts for these movements.
    I nowadays only work when I feel healthy enough to sit at my workbench, otherwise I enjoy watching your excellent videos but not always in real time as my health is up and down.
    Wishing you a peaceful holidays and try not to drink too much alcohol. 😂
    Best wishes
