Love a well live watch

Such a lovely day of such varied watches. Hats off to keyboard (cycle paraphernalia) Friday.

It was cheap until I had to pay raccomandatta shipping! Couldn’t resist a beat up thing that needs a loving wrist.

Was gonna put new crystal and try repair some of the bezel damage, but not too sure now.

I don’t understand it?! Looks like he dropped it... pls halpz

Lovely last couple of pages

Totally with you on this @coppiThat

Time still correct this morning, however the second hand doesn’t line up properly. I think someone had a go at this some time in its past.

Made a one-piece strap from 20mm webbing to see how I liked the fit, but the loose bezel was annoying me. Popped off and started scrubbing. It needs some real attention to get totally cleaned up. This is after 5 minutes with a soapy toothbrush.

Realised the crude ratchet system (black ring on the case around crystal) was totally flattened. I suppose the recesses could hold ball bearings, not sure if someone lost them or if it only ever ran against the plastic.

Gently plied up the plastic ring and now it’s better, more secure and monodirectional. Could do with being more, but think I’m asking too much of a busted old thing.
