Very nice, and great to have the history from new, it sounds lik it has some tales to tell. As you say it needs some servicing / restoration and if it hasn't been serviced (as you suggest), I really would at least have it serviced before using it - the oils will have long ago dried up and running the watch will be causing wear to the parts that could get expensive. |

How true, thanks for the caution, perhaps should let it rest.. I only run it once a year or so for an hr or two, to circulate things as I did lightly lubricate it with a mist a couple of times since it retired. |

Contact me if you are interested in having it restored. I can probably find the hand and the pusher caps need replacing. Thanks, Craig |

I won't sell my hands outright - I don't have many. You can buy the pushers from: http://www.cousinsuk.com/catalog/4/660/725.aspx in the UK. I believe the threads are 2.3mm and the caps are 4.0mm. Good luck changing those. Craig |
