Some impressive repair work here, given the circumstances and altitude smile

That's an incredible video. I wondered what was so special until the watch back just drifted away from his screwdriver. Amazing!

That is incredibly cool!! If only the tiny screws used in watch movements just floated up in the air to be caught when I'm disassembling them.... hehe Instead they tend to ping off to get lost in the carpet... That gaffer tape idea looks handy though biggrin

Its a cool watch for sure. A few question marks over reliability of the very early models... I'd still have one though, they look pretty easy to fix wink
