    Bracelet will go as soon as it arrive.......

    Will you agree if I say unpolished?

    Crown is a service replacement, right? If yes, are correct ones still available?

    Thanks.

    Looks good! What makes you think it's a service crown? Given that these are hidden-crowns, it can't be that easy to just slap a random one on.

    I think you did OK. One of the first things to go on these watches is the lug Chamfers. Lugs on your's look pretty good. The crown looks original, but I don't have 168.004, only a 168.0010

    Hey Paul, I think you did really well. That's a very clean dial. And the case is crisp too! You gonna get it serviced? :)

    Thanks guys - what a relief it's ok :)

    Sorry, my bad on the wrong crown thing.

    Yes Dablitzer, but I'm afraid my local watchmaker cant do it in the same speed and at the same price as yours ;)

    A very nice example. Pie-pan dials in these "hidden crown" models are tough to find. I think the crown is 100% oriignal.
