    Hi guys.

    Any recommendations/advice on 14755 bezel restoration?
    I've already tried reaching out to the "Italian" but got no response.
    From what I've read already, communication with him is "Spotty" at best...

    Any other restorers that you guys can recommend?

    Highly appreciate it!

    Have you tried to contact Aldo "the Italian guy" via the forum @aldo

    He is definitely the best. I haven't seen any restorations that come close to his work

    I spoke to Aldo on here, got a very quick response and then great comms until confirmation he received my bezel.

    Ha! He reached out to me through IG...says he uses Bakelite and his turnaround time is a month.

    Looks like he is trading on speed.

    I have had great success with Aldo. You do need Zen like patience, but in some ways that is part of the attraction.
