    if the cheese comes on a sm300 (as opposed to a piece of toast), then definitely...

    All that wrist cheese leads me to believe that the owner truly enjoyed his watch, which I think its a great thing. Congrats on the find

    With the current craze for originality will you be leaving the cheese crusted onto the watch or carefully removing it to store safely for if you choose to sell?

    I’ll be taking lots of pics, then sending it to Simon Freese to get it serviced and disinfected... Removing the cheese doesn’t affect the value when I have the pics I guess.

    These watches deserve to be worn and wear so well.
    Hopefully you clean the bracelet and deposit your own cheese in good health!
