And Then........Depression Set In....................

Ever since it's recent service my Tudor snowflake had lots of resistance when winding. And then lately it felt like every once in a wind it was stripping gears. Good news, my watchmaker's on the case, pin intended. But I hate to give it up.

I know how you feel Dan, to send in a beauty like that.

I'm sure another piece in your collection will pick up the slack in your rotation.

Yes I did but it's just one of those things. As long as it's fixable I'm good. And I know it's in good hands.
