A clever quick fix for a bad wiper.

This video shows a Rolex Submariner being disassembled, cleaned, and reassembled.
Looked to me for the first couple minutes he was turning screws clockwise to remove them. Maybe I'm drunk.

It's a mechanical watch (autowind) with rotating gears. The left hand thread may keep the screws from backing out over the years from directional micro torque or vibration. They may even make all of them left handed; so, same size screws used for different purposes in the watch will be interchangeable and can be modified to different lengths.
It might be somewhat like one bicycle pedal being reverse threaded, even though the pedal rotates on its shaft, so it won't eventually back out. That's my guess. |

You may be right but I don't think they're all the same, after the first couple minutes he's turning the driver the other way.

Yeah, meshing gears would turn in opposite directions.

1942 Lincoln Zephyr, I guess a funeral flower car. Very few 1942 models were made of any model/brand but I guess the funeral business was booming.

Pretty badass, they were doing a stroke of business back then though.

The bodies do pile up when you're saving the world.
