Triple WOW!!!, wowzer.gifGraham. The spa work was lightning quick. If you didn't mention this was a 1975 version, I would have thought it was wholly brand new.

Against the previous PM you sent me on the this very rare chrono, I am amazed at the dial work and bezel restoration and how the piece developed. I am all drool on thisdrool.gifdrool.gifdrool.gif. I know you'll love it more than your vintage Seiko divers.

Wear it in good health.thumbsup.gif
