Had not worn this Premier for some time and remembered when I put it on today I had promised to upload pics to show how it looked before it went to Craig.

This is how it looked, was actually very pessimistic it would clean nicely.

This is how it came back, lovely ! The "shock protected" came off with the dirt, it was apparently added later, above the varnish.

How do you like the dark brown croc with it ?

Fred is lucky this dial cleaned up so well. Not all of them have a happy outcome. Thanks
