00:06 making some clicky sounds by manipulating the bracelet on a circular piece of aluminum stock
00:11 moving a hobbyists paintbrush closer to the microphone
00:13 making some more clicky sounds with the watch and bracelet
00:15 "accidentally" dinging the brush against a glass dish to obtain a natural chime sound
00:19 unnecessarily adjusting the Rolex again to make even more unnecessary clicky sounds
00:22 deliberately and noisily putting on unnecessary magnifying glasses
00:26 more clicky sounds
00:30 loudly dropping the brush near the microphone to create a "bouncing stick" sound
00:32 unnecessarily moving the brush to the other side of the glass dish to make additional unnecessary natural chime and stick dropping sounds

00:43 gratuitous sounds of clicking, dinging, banging and popping of watch, brush, dish, plastic cap of jar, and circular piece of aluminum stock
00:53 ASMR ENHANCED sound of pouring oil into glass dish on top of vacuum cleaner dirt (actual sound is of water pouring from a five liter jug into a glass vase from Ikea)

I covered my Rolex in dirt and I made this ASMR video about it.

I thought about making a video about cleaning and restoring my Rolex, but that's already been done by other YouTubers. So instead I made a video that focusses on applying dirt to it and making it look like it had been buried in a garden for years or found in a trash dump and was therefore in desperate need of restoration, even though it's in great condition and runs well. And I made it even better with ASMR.

You're welcome!

from Wikipedia:

Autonomous sensory meridian response (ASMR), sometimes auto sensory meridian response, is a tingling sensation that usually begins on the scalp and moves down the back of the neck and upper spine. A pleasant form of paresthesia, it has been compared with auditory-tactile synesthesia and may overlap with frisson.
