It’s here 6426

Hi all, I finally can be a part of the community again. My 6426 oyster precision is here and out of the watchmakers.

It’s a lovely patina black enamel dial. 1972 year date. I had the watch serviced and the mainspring replaced.

It’s on an aftermarket bracelet at the moment. I have the original but it’s stretched out to hell.

Always good when they come home. You can get the bracelet repaired about £250 in the UK.

Never can go wrong with the classic oyster.

Did you happen change the dial as well? The 1972 dial should not have t Swiss made t in my honest opinion.

No it’s not a dial change and I checked that out.
