Must have been owned by a vintage Rolex dealer, they have a habit of letting watches accidentally fall into ovens.

Extremely tropical; I love it. That’s how I’m ordering my Porterhouse next time…

i have seen similar vid on a Tissot "found" in the gutter. Labor must be pretty low to make this fiscally responsible.

What is the magic white paste?

That is pretty amazing work. I noticed the Chinese writing it translates to “Nanjing shen time” or that’s as close as I can get it. That is quite the demonstration of skill and patience. I have been to Nanjing it was one of my favorite cities to visit if we ever go back to like normal I wonder if I could find that place.
