    Calibre 750 running strong but please factor in service relatively soon if intended for daily use since last trip to the watchmaker was mid 2014

    PP fee and 2-3 day USPS Priority with tracking included in CONUS, may be slightly slower for ROW

    Plenty of references here and on other forums as well as 100+ on ebay, just search peatnick

    Just in case anyone wasn't aware, this is common for the period.

    Thanks for the explanation !

    I might have been mixing decades when adding the gold mesh, that would be more acceptable in the 80's . . .

    It was the same on my 1973 Constellation and a lot of others I've seen :)

    What wrist sizes will the bracelet accomodate? Can you post a photo of the clasp?

    Is the case gold plated or capped?
