I will adhere to your saying, as I do not want the watch to be "hurt" because of my suggestions.
On the other hand, the specific model, with the domed crystal does not suffer from "aging", nor water gets ever inside even if the seals had become like "gum".
Mine has suffered so much in my hands and never failed. But as it is not my property,
, I will follow the rules.
The point is that it is a classic and has to be preserved.
