    Case looks wonderful.. Did you have the day/date wheel changed to English during the service?

    Perfect, thanks. That angled jig is the concept I was missing.

    Interesting that the guy seems to have a watch on each wrist.

    Very cool. Guess I won't be doing THAT kind of polishing in my garage.

    That guy is the head of the refinishing department at Swatchgroup service centre in NJ. That's a video I took during some training there...

    And yes he wore two watches.

    Cheers, Al

    Case and dial look tremendous under the new crystal. Agree about the hands, just don't look right but I'm sure they can be redone when it next goes in for a service. If you can wait that long.

    It looks great, I do love these speedsonics, enormously undervalued watches in my opinion.

    They really are superb, wear extremely well and the movements are super cool! I've got a few of these beauties, including a couple of very rare ones
