Six Vintage Swiss Watches Under 50 Open Casebacks, Lume Shots, Timegrapher, and Where I Got Them

In this video I show and discuss six vintage Swiss watches, each of which was purchased for less than $US 50!

I open each watch to examine the movements. I show the charged lume on each watch. And I test each watch on my Weishi No. 1900 Timegrapher to check their vitals!

Super fun, super fresh! (HB ;)

Each of them have had their cases and crystals cleaned and polished, dial and hands re-lumed, and gaskets checked / replaced for water resistance by me -- except #6 (the Bermi).
