That's the way I'm learning to repair my watches. Actually, I'm learning two things; 1: not to be a gorilla with the movement, and 2: how to fix the broken movement after being said gorilla!
And YES! It does feel good! [emoji1]
Thanks for the help guys! I got the job done. At this point, finding that video is just a sanity check for me... that I haven't COMPLETELY lost my mind!

Hey Guys,
I've been driving myself up a wall looking for a video tutorial that I saw a few months ago. It was a video of someone removing the hands and dial from a watch and swapping out the date wheel. He used levers to remove the hands. I just can't find it anywhere!
Does anyone know this video and can you direct me to it. I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks All!

Not sure if you guys know about this, but there was a fire at one of Swatch's ETA movement factories destroying the facility. This is going to create a ripple effect across the industry as so many brands depend on their movements.

If you like to wear your watch low on the wrist then yes, it does leave a bit of a mark on the back if your hand. It really doesn't bother me. I consider myself a bit of a scrapper anyway!

I've been intrigued by this micro brand for a while and saw the opportunity to pick this one up. Steinhart Nav.B-Chrono 47 "Limited Gold Edition". Very nice homage watch! She has gold hands, gold rotor, and a gold ETA 7750. She came with a vintage weathered Buffalo strap and a new Honey Brown Buffalo strap.
I thought I might do a catch and release, but I may keep this one for a little while!
Has anyone picked up the newest version yet? Angus posted a v2 in the middle of Oct coming from the Mark factory. I'm curious what they've improved and what they've made worst. Thanks!
