Serviced by Ridley. Crying shame what RSC does to vintage pieces. Not only do they not support them by providing wear parts but they actively destroy them when they get their hands on them. They could make a nice profit providing crystals and crowns and bezel rings and such. Instead I have to buy parts when I find them and hoard them until I might eventually need them in the future.


The matte dials didn’t have the issues to which I’m referring. Those mainly were well before mid-80s anyway (some probably hit as late as ‘84).

I didn’t make a point of highlighting the “gloss only” distinction because the subject of this thread has been gloss...


Beautiful watch!! - Amazing example!
