: Hi John,
: what a wonderful catch you did... now you should restore the case
: to its original finish, mount a simil Corfam black strap and
: enjoy it like it deserves ;-)
: Thanks for sharing.

Gianluca,

I am torn about "restoring" the case. I know most of the brushing is gone from the top of the lugs but the edges are very factory sharp and a lot of the brushing is still on the sides. I am going to have to think about this one. Usually I am really against "restoring" cases.

I am back home now and it already has a black rally strap with solid gold buckle.
