High-end cleaning machines cost thousands. The Watching Machine is a motorized upgrade for the Chrono Clean that emulates them — variable speed, auto-reversal, programmable cycles, spin cycle — controlled from your phone.

The Problem
A proper cleaning machine — the kind watchmakers use — will set you back €1,000 to €3,000. They spin parts at precise speeds, reverse direction automatically, and run timed cycles. They work beautifully.
Most hobbyists make do with a cheap ultrasonic cleaner and a lot of patience. The results are fine. But fine isn't the same as right.
The Watching Machine changes that. It's a motorized upgrade for the Chrono Clean — bringing variable speed, auto-reversal, and programmable cycles to a machine you already own.
What it does
From gentle rinse to vigorous clean — dial in the exact speed for the job.
Direction changes on a timer — just like high-end machines — for thorough, even cleaning.
Built-in profiles that replicate the cycles of professional cleaning machines.
Create and save your own wash, rinse, and dry sequences. Your machine, your rules.
High-speed spin at the end of a cycle to throw off excess fluid — parts come out drier.
Start, stop, and monitor your cycle from a companion app. No buttons on the machine.
How it works
Setup — once
Undo the four screws attaching the Chrono Clean handle to the lid. Set the handle aside.
Seat the unit so the drive gear engages the basket's top gear. Fasten it with the same four screws.
Connect the power cable. The unit is ready to pair.
Open the app, find your device, and connect. You're set up for good.
Every use
Place movement parts in the basket as usual.
Choose a built-in preset or build your own from the app.
Hand-clean delicate parts, work on the case — the machine notifies you when it's done.
