How to Restore a Fire Damaged Watch

The first time I met Ed he gave me a box of vintage tools. This time he gave me a challenge: three Swiss watches that were badly damaged in a fire. In this video I show you the cosmetic aspect of this restoration: how I removed the fire damage and restored all three watches hands and crystals. In the longer version of the video linked below I also show you how I replaced and repaired the movements.
