16520 :: Back from the spa

Serviced at the London RSC, away for 8 weeks. Back on my wrist yesterday. It's like getting a new watch for Christmas:

Love that 16520. Wish prices hadn’t gone crazy on these so I could afford one. Enjoy having it back on the wrist.

If you don't mind me asking how much was the service and what did they do? I have a black 16520 in pretty good condition but it could do with some TLC to the enamel paint on the bezel and the second hand could do with a clean.

I've been holding off because I don't want to lose the watch for months but I should finally get it sorted out.
