I befriended a really good man
In France that does mostly vintage pieces from Rolex and Patek.I sent him these photos and he's actually worked on this brand in the past.I'm getting a simple service, crystal replacement and a new Pip.I'll be sure to post photos when it's back in my hands.Thanks for the advice.
Picked up this vintage piece
and sent it out for forward to seeing the finished item. ...

We're both looking forward
to see this gem after was actually running well once I wound it up.I toyed with the idea of getting a black bund do you think ? Take care
Cool vintage chronograph …
Just make sure it doesn’t get over restored. Best regards Captain
I'm keeping this as originally
found as a service on the inside, new crystal and Pip care and thanks
