Back from service. Before service gained 1 minute/day, now gains 10 sec/day and lots of scratches on the crystal polished out.

One of the rare few which has made it through my extensive flipping activity. Mainly worn by my SO. Very pretty watch, and was bargain priced.

Thanks! It sure is. I love old watches, makes you wonder what story they've got to tell. Where they have been...what situations they have been witness to!
I particularly like watches from the 60's as the size is just spot on, but they still feel 'modern' enough to wear on a daily basis, if you so wished
