This one landed home a couple of months ago totally untouched I believe,
just in need of a deep cleaning and a full service since the chrono was hardly running.

Knowing how fragile are these gold plating,
the main objective was to find the right person to clean well the case making sure it'd be preserved,
guess who ?

When the job was completed, I received a message from Abel with the usual fine pictures and the fact, curiously, that he was starting to be attracted by "this strange little duck" although not being a great fan of gold plated watches.

Here's what I received from Abel after this delicate job

the movement is now a joy to look at

now I'm not sure if it's a strange little duck or a beautiful swan
