My Merch - buy Watches & T-Shirts here https://www.time-tees.com/

In this video I attempt to relume a watch dial for the first time. The dial is in poor condition and the lume is even worse. I take you with my on my journey and you can see all the steps I take to remove the old lume, clean and prepare the indices before applying the luminous mixture.

How did I do? well watch to find out.

I welcome all feedback on this one. If anyone has tips for me then I will definitely take them all on board.

About me:

My name is Mike and I am a hobbyist watchmaker. I am completely self-taught in watch repair and restoration. My channel is all about my journey of hobbyist of watchmaking. I have watch repair tutorials, watch restorations and watch repair videos. Some of my content you can easily follow along to if you are working on the same watch movement. My main focus is to document my journey and inspire more people into this wonderful hobby and demonstrate that this hobby can be very rewarding. I do not profess to be a professional watchmaker and in my videos, I show all my mistakes, mishaps, highs and lows and keep everything as honest as possible. It is easy to edit all the mistakes out and make my videos look perfect but I believe that keeping it real reflects the true reality of this hobby. So, what are you waiting for? please check out my watch repair and restoration videos, get inspired and start your own watchmaking journey.
