Building a Mechanical Watch with AliExpress Parts | Seiko NH35 Build | Part 1

Подробнее о видео

Hey everyone! So I've been quite interested recently in devices that measure time, both analog AND digital; and of course I love dense mechanical devices full of gears and springs and clever contraptions.
So I decided: why not try my hand at putting together a watch? And more specifically, a mechanical watch. Why? Well obviously because the gears look cool, but ALSO, because being part of gen z, I've never seen a mechanical watch before, so in this video I'm not only (partially) building a watch, but also using/learning about a mechanical watch for the first time ever.

So cool how something physical like a clock can evenly divide something as abstract as a dimension like time.
