@Simpson absolutely fantastic that you have such special watches from your Father, with the additional bonus that they were BBC issued..
I have seen many stopwatches that were BBC issue, but not so many regular watches.. They are both stunning.
I would 100% get Simon Freese to service them, he will preserve the patina, whilst ensuring the movements are perfect.
Thanks for sharing

Dug one of my Dads old watches out. He was a radio 4 reporter for BBC. They used to get given chronos to time pieces for reports, he joined end of the sixties, retired in the 90’s and never returned the watch. I have another also but different. Scratches all his own from falklands through Romanian revolution first gulf war and Yugoslav war.
