312 Back From Service

4 weeks felt like 4 months but it's back and I couldn't be happier. You never realize how much you like a watch or enjoy it in the rotation until it's gone. Saying holds true for many things..

Great watch! It looks immaculate!

Did you ask them to polish/refinish it or was it that clean when you sent it in for service?

Thanks! I'm really pleased.
I asked them only to clean up the polished bezel and nothing else. They did a great job - the bezel had only a few light swirls but looks brand new now.

Had the full movement service done. I live in Toronto, Canada so was done at the Richemont service center in Mississauga. Time away was exactly 4 weeks.

312 Back From Service

May I inquire as to how much the service cost?

It looks brand spanking new. Gorgeous piece.

Had it for a year but previous owner had it for 6. I couldn't verify service history so I went ahead and had it done.

Looks like BN! I have had my 232 out for 4 months and should have it next week. Feels like it's been a year.
