DJ 1601 back from service

Hi all, just had my DJ 1601 serial no 1973562 serviced by the Rolex agent here in Cape Town South Africa - Chronos - Very happy with the outcome, he said it had only had 2 prior services pre 1980 , it looks as good as new, not bad for a 45 yr old watch , and keeps time to the second , here is a before and some after photographs , the service cost the eqiv of $400 cheers Jonathan Cape Town

Looking great.
Well worth the money in my opinion.
Mine came back looking like new again after it's recent service.
Built to last....the classic DJ.

Good looking watch Jonathan!

I saw a 16610 last week that Chronos restored/serviced. I inspected it carefully with my 10x loupe, and it was flawless.
