Cheers from Le Bim and ready for a moonwalk! The SM 30 is a very nice watch, and great pics! Thanks for a blast from the past, coolness... =:^D
for anyone reading this from UK or EU, my watchmaker is very very good as you can see and very cheap. pm me if you want his email. i love the Buzz toy although its technically incorrect. Buzz didnt wear a speedy on the moon, he gave his to Neil to wear as Neils was in the module. ever pedantic Graham

Very very nice. Now I haven't ever thought of it, nor identified a watch that I would want to restore, but it seems like a lovely idea. Best regards, George
a watch like this Seamaster was indeed a good idea ... not so for most vintage watches . I can say i have a brandnew old watchnow Cheers, Fiip
On your wrist shot pic, the dial´s colour is really beautiful - as the whole restored "oldtimer"! Congrats on your hunt, bimbeano! anaesdoc P. S. Greetings from my Seamaster De Ville (purchased for a respectable amount of money ), which came in a very good condition, too (considering she´s from 1965).
