    Default For some reason, I find this oddly satisfying

    Youtube recommended these videos for some reason. I watched one, and now I'm hooked.

    The engineering and precision is impressive, and the skill needed to refurbish these old watches is as well.

    That’s truly amazing. Makes assembling Ikea furniture seem like child’s play in comparison, LOL!

    Excellent. I carefully watched every moment.
    You should try watching some episodes of the BBC TV show "The Repair Shop." It sounds like something you might enjoy.

    I've actually watched more than a few episodes of that. It's on Netflix here in the States.

    The work itself is interesting, but there's something about the guy in the video above that I find appealing. His demeanor, tone of voice, silly "dad humor", I dunno. I've probably watched half a dozen of his videos now. It's just oddly satisfying.

    I intend to look at more of his videos too. In The Repair Shop there never seems to be quite enough time showing the work being done compared with that showing interviews with the item owners.
