·The PSO-1 looks like it originally had a sort of hammertone paint job? Is that correct?
I think I can see what you mean in photos, but in person it's got a sort of sparkly luster that shifts with the light - the patterns seem to dance around faintly as the angle of the sun emphasizes different directions of the lines. Almost like how mother of pearl behaves, but much less intense. It's very pretty for a scuffed up piece of overpriced steel.

This sounds like something I need to see in person.

·Just returned from a servicing. When I bought it from a private seller here on OF he advertised it as "runs perfectly, as expected."
That turned out to be over 3 minutes fast when I got it, with him saying that's good for a watch this age. Lol!
Now I'm no expert but it runs 12 seconds fast, dial up - that's much closer to "runs perfect." In my opinion at least.
