My Grandfathers 6334
I just got it back today from 8 weeks of restoration. The case might be a bit over polished..I’m not sure...but I’m happy, nonetheless. My grandfather and I were very close and I’m so happy I was able to get this done.

Thank you everybody. The more I look at it the happier it makes me. I bought a new Explorer 1 this year to commemorate some big moments of the year (I wrote about that on the other forum) and now I have this 6334. It’s a modest start to a collection, but I couldn’t be happier about it. Thank you all for the kind words.
