Only 7 hours into testing but testing was spot on and 42 hour reserve is what my guy tested the watch to completion with.

Replace mainspring, barrel, pip, several screws, one jewel, detent and screw.

My guy is a RSC parts account and handles the local ADs (until R brings that back all the way). But a job well done.

42 hr reserve is darn good. I don't have that on my Tudor...

I’ll snap a wrist shot today. The bracelet is out getting refreshed, but it’s on a leather strap right now.
