Also, based on the goopyness of the gaskets, it hasn't been serviced in a very long time. Budget for new crystal and casebook gaskets, pushers, and crown if you want it to pass a pressure test. Certainly some deferred maintenance needed but looks worth correcting/preserving. Or just wear the heck out of if you're not a collector.
I hate commenting on these. Someone please chime in to tell me I'm wrong.
I've got my MkII in my hand right now (it was on my wrist), and I am angling this thing back and forth against the photo but no matter what I do, I can't seem to make the side chamfer marry with the one in the photo. The photo looks deeper and the pushers closer to the start of the chamfer. Is it just the depth of field and angle or has this been polished?
Anyone knows how much is it to change the crystal and tachy scale ?
Are they independent of each other or do they come together as one?
You can find a new crystal on eBay right now for not too much. This comes with the tachy included. Any good watch repair guy should be able to replace it for a couple of bucks.
