If you haven't seen it...
...this is a very cool film from 1949 explaining how an automatic watch works. I'm a sucker for old mechanical films, especially those aimed at lay people, and this one totally delivers. Such clarity!
Apologies if this has been posted before... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZwq1KL4SD0 |

Always worth a new post as many new members wouldn't find the old threads easily.
Thanks

In a similar vein, this is STILL (at least to me) the most comprehensive, easy-to-understand, and eye-opening one I've ever seen. The simplicity in its explanation is just brilliant

Great clips. I like the "fine motor car" with "more than 100 horse power".
