    Thought it's about time I shared my latest purchase. Bought a few months ago but only just picked up after visiting the in-laws. It's the pie pan I've always wanted.
    The two internal photos were taken by the seller @JohnSteed, thanks for the smooth transaction too :thumbsup:

    Strange that an original gasket almost stopped me parting with a couple :thumbsdown:

    That's a NFW. I love original yellow gaskets almost as much as purple caseback snot.

    Do you mean it should be swapped for a new one for water resistance?

    Means it needs a new gasket and most likely a service as an service should have include gaskets.

    I would leave the gasket like that and keep the watch away from water.

    Don't mind that but still needs service if he is going to wear it.
