Incoming!!!!

I am very happy to announce the incoming of my baby back. R.W.T. has been doing an overhaul of my 53' 6298 and he has informed me that it should arrive today and that she is running great! I can't wait to have her on my wrist again!

And now an after shot. Tommy did a full service and replaced the crystal with a NOS one so that it would have the correct dome. He also had to replace the stem and tube. I joked with him that a strap he had looked good and he should "throw it in" and low and behold he did! I don't have much in the way of reference points to judge by but I can tell you that at this point I am very happy with Tommy (R.W.T.) and would recommend him to anyone! Service was fast from what I get from others and the communication was excellent! Price was VERY reasonable!

Without further a due:
