    Everyone is saying they miss your voice, but no one is asking if you’re okay. I hope things are well for you and your loved ones. Thank you for ALL your content, keep it coming in whichever format you want. God bless

    During these dark times, I noticed that I missed your voice and commentary which brought some light into the world for me. I appreciate the video like always, just felt a bit sadder not having those parts to look forward to. Thank you for all your hard work, you are a beacon of light amongst lesser men! Never forget that!

    Miss the commenting from you during video. That’s the best part. Love your son when he comes in.
  • @billmoore9148
    I dont know which was stronger, the incredible restoration or your silent protest. Amen to them both. Stay strong Joe!
  • @user-mgc
    In these dark times the sound of your voice brings light and hope, please talk to us again. That said, your silence speaks volumes. Peace.
  • Hey Joe. I'm sad you've gone silent. I love your videos for the banter and the education. Without them, it falls toward the other ASMR content that I pass right over. I play videos in the background while to do my daily tasks and your lack of audio saddens me. I know the world has gotten you down. There is always a fight to be had against one wrong or another; one disease or another... if we all fell silent in protest, who will be our champions? Find your voice. Some of us need to hear it
  • @lissataylor12345
    Your work is wonderful. I also realize I watch your videos because of your charm and commentary.
  • Wow! Joe is the only restorer of anything I am subscribed to. The quality of his work is unmatched on YouTube. A true craftsman and a man of conscience.
  • @j81851
    Missed your kind words and fun humor. Watch restoration was great. We miss your compassionate heart and great wit. Come soon with your old format and a tired watch to resurrect. We always enjoy it. Love from Alabama USA
  • @panzerleader49
    I agree with everyone else. Your kind comments and gentle humor is enjoyable and sooooo refreshing. Please give us your voice back! Thanks

    I'm a simple man. I see a new Nekkid Watchmaker video, I click, I watch, I like... I'm happy.
  • @leo7001
    WOW as someone who does this as a hobby, I am blown away at your skills and your tools, Lots of skills and thousands in tools. True artist
  • It was strange not to hear any of your comments, especially since I am so used to your voice that some of the tools' noises sounded scary and surprising, but I understand and approve your decision. Love you, mate, dont leave us for too long this time !
  • Impossible task, Immaculate restoration, amazing skill. Silence is respect, my thoughts are with all those suffering in this cruel world. I pray for peace.😢
  • @SloanRanger61
    Joe, you stand for peace, love, and justice. We stand for you, as well as those things. Stay strong.
  • @mickwilson127
    Miss your voice Joe, but understand your reasons. Lovely work as always.
  • @chrismack5908
    You are a bright spot and a gift to humanity as well as a bright spot in our lives. I'm so sorry you are feeling sadness. We can only do our best to be kind and generous to others. Many blessings to you and everyone!
  • @marcusbrown5797
    No more silent protests. Your comments are also what makes your videos so enjoyable. Keep up the great work 👍
  • Thank you for always practicing such kindness, I look forward to a time in the world when you and many like you feel their voice can be heard again.
  • Respect your protest and your silence speaks volumes but I think your gentle wit and wisdom is greater. Nature, it is said, abhors a vacuum, so if we are silent, that silence will be filled by voices with less good intent than ours. The resto, was excellent considering the crust you started with. Best to you and your family.
