I polished the crystal, acrylic? with Autosol, came up a treat the only issue is the crack between 11 and 12. I was getting my knickers in a twist about this, going to replace it etc but its 51 years old I am calling it patina and living with it.
Some vinegar and water has given the case a bit of a birthday and a new Nato strap to finish it off.
It keeps time really well, if its not broke I'm not getting it serviced. Makes me sad I had it in the loft for nearly thirty years :(
Lovely! Tritium is king. It's still worth getting it serviced IMO, if the movementĀ“s not well lubricated you'll risk damaging the movement in worse ways
