FHF Robert Ligne 10 5''' Restoration in Twelve Minutes
I used JFK's inaugural address as the audio for this video because this watch's solid silver case has the date that JFK died hand-engraved inside it and its FHF Robert ligne 10 5''' movement was first released in JFK's birth year, 1917.
For a longer edit with my own narration check out my other video about this restoration here:

There's also a twelve hour long version here with my live commentary (the time lapse version without time lapse):
