Time to re-lume this Seiko LM dial !  Should I get the camera out?  The disassembly video flopped so unsure to continue this series. (Built the movement off camera as a result)

Hi guys . Working on my digital watch collection video and should be out in a few days.
On a side note I am happy to say I have just had my latest PSA test for my prostate cancer and it is still undetectable. 19 months post surgery. 
This simple blood test saved my life and it could save yours.
Over 50? 
Then please look after your prostate and ask on your next checkup for a PSA blood test. 
Prostate cancer is a silent killer in men having no symptoms usually until the disease is much more advanced.

I had no symptoms and was diagnosed at 49 years old! 

If only one person acts on my continued awareness and gets an early diagnosis as a result (curable if early ) my suffering will have been worthwhile. 

Thanks for reading.

Hi guys. Some of you might know that in 2022 I was given the devastating news that I had prostate cancer. I was 49 at the time!  No symptoms no issues I just acted on an awareness campaign I heard on the radio.
I am now 18 months post surgery and in the clear.  I now raise awareness where I can.  Here is a video I did with ​⁠ @ProstateCancer_UK   and ​⁠ @tenamen   to talk openly about some of the side effects men live with as a result of prostate surgery.

Please watch, share and consider your own health.  If you are 50 +  get a PSA test. Check out prostate cancer uk free risk checker.  1-8 men will get Pc 1-4 if you are black. 
Shocking . Look after your health.  2 videos on this channel about my journey so check them out !

This is a crazy Seiko from 1977. Was a watch I served very early on in my watchmaking journey possibly 2017. It’s now a non runner . Question is would it make a good video to see the difference in my ability from then to now? I suspect this will be quite dirty and poor oiling .
Let me know below ?

New video dropping this Sunday hopefully .
