This time I´m restoring a Kingston watch. It´s powered by the Poljot 2409 caliber, a hand-wind movement with 17 rubis and a shock protection. It beats with 18000 bph and the lift angle of the balance is 42°. The watch is in bad condition: The case is full of green patina/rust and the plating is damaged, the glass is heavily scratched and the movement isn´t running at all. The mainspring seems blocked and the time-setting is not working. The mainspring is unbreakable, thats what the dial says. But unfortunately not un-"bendable"... the mainspring is done and I need to replace that one as well as the sliding-pinion (all teeths are broken off). I need to clean the case in acetic acid to remove the patina and re-polish it. The glass will be polished and the movement cleaned. The crown is damaged so i need to replace that one. After everything is cleaned and polished, I can re-assemble the movement with some fresh oil. After that, this watch is in a good beat (+1 second per day) again. I hope you liked this restoration, if so, like, comment and subscribe ;) Subscribe to my channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/RedDeadRestoration?sub_confirmation=1 Music: "Lights" by Patrick Patrikios ___________________________________ Follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/reddeadrestoration Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/YTRedDeadRestoration Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/Reddeadrestoration ___________________________________ Acrylic Glass Polishing Compound: https://amzn.to/2XIP8vF ** Case Polishing Diamond Paste: https://amzn.to/2Ye1MSo ** Case Polishing Wadding: https://amzn.to/2UlNfme ** Thermo-Tape: https://amzn.to/30YktME ** Fiber Glass Pen: https://amzn.to/2AQfpzi ** UV-Lamp: https://amzn.to/3iuOSJ8 ** UV-Glue: https://amzn.to/3ghGSZK ** Rodico: https://amzn.to/3eWtTN2 ** Multi-Purpose Watch-Repair-Kit: https://amzn.to/2XIQ7Mn ** Multitool: https://amzn.to/2BNryW9 ** Buffing Wheels for Multitool: https://amzn.to/30gJCSF ** My Camera: https://amzn.to/32er4BJ ** ** Affiliate Links Disclaimer: This video and description contains affiliate links, which means that if you click on one of the product links, I'll receive a small commission.
