I HAD THE WATCH EXAMINED AND “DETAIL” SERVICED BY ONE OF THE MOST RESPECTED VINTAGE WATCHMAKERS IN THE U.S..
UNLIKE MOST VINTAGE WATCHMAKERS
, THIS WATCH HAD THE FOLLOWING DONE TO THE SAME:
ALL THE PARTS WERE COMPLETELY DISMANTLED BEFORE BEING INSERTED INTO A SPECIAL ULTRA-SOUND CLEANING PROCESS.
ONCE THE PARTS ARE COMPLETELY CLEANED OF OLD OILS, ETC., THEY ARE PAINSTAKINGLY PUT BACK TOGETHER AND PLACED BACK INTO THE CASING.
THE NEW OIL USED IS OF THE HIGHEST GRADE AVAILABLE.
MOST WATCHMAKERS WILL SIMPLY PUT THE INTERNAL PARTS WHILE STILL ASSEMBLED THROUGH THE SAME TYPE OF CLEANING PROCESS AND THEN PUT THE ASSEMBLY BACK INTO THE CASE. DOING THE CLEANING THIS WAY WILL ONLY REMOVE APPROXIMATELY 60% OF ALL THE OLD OILS AND OTHER SUBSTANCES THAT NEED TO BE REMOVED.
THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT KNOWLEDGE TO HAVE
.
MORE AND MORE OF THESE VERY SPECIAL VINTAGE WATCHES ARE BEING LISTED AND SOLD AT LOWER PRICES WHICH MAY BE DO TO PARTS NOT BEING AUTHENTIC, DEFECTIVE HAIRSPRINGS WHICH CAUSES BAD TIMEKEEPING CAPABILITY, LOOSE TIMEKEEPING ARMS THAT ARE NOT ATTACHED TO THE BASE PROPERLY, ETC., ETC..
A COA PROVIDED BY MY "VINTAGE" WATCH SPECIALIST HAS VALUE THAT CAN LAST FOR YEARS WHILE YOU ENJOY YOUR INVESTMENT
.
MY WATCHMAKER HAS SIGNED AND PROVIDED A CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY (COA) WHICH WILL GO TO THE NEW OWNER OF THIS WATCH.
A COA FROM MY VINTAGE WATCHMAKER IS SO IMPORTANT AS IT IS THE ONLY WAY TO BE
GUARANTEED
THAT PARTS HAVE NOT BEEN CANNIBALIZED FROM INFERIOR DIME WATCHES ALONG WITH OTHER NEGATIVE VALUE POSSIBILITIES.
MY WATCHMAKER ALSO CERTIFIES THAT THE WATCH IS IN THE
BEST
WORKING CONDITION
THAN CAN BE EXPECTED FROM ONE OF THESE VINTAGE MECHANICAL WATCHES.
THE WATCH WINDS AND RUNS STRONG.
I TESTED THE WATCH FOR A 12 HOUR RUN AND THE
CORRECT TIME
WAS DISPLAYED(
AS GOOD AS IT GETS
).
AS THE WATCH CONTINUES TICKING ALONG, THE SAME MAY END UP BEING SLOW OR FAST BY A BIT WHICH IS COMPLETELY EXPECTED IN THESE VINTAGE WATCHES.
PLEASE NOTE: A vintage collectible timepiece will not keep as accurate a time as a modern quartz wristwatch or cellular telephone and nor should it be expected to. If total accuracy is what you desire or need, then there are many quartz watches available at a fraction of the cost.
PLEASE VIEW MY ENCLOSED PHOTO REFERENCES FOR THE BEST TOOL TO USE IN DETERMINING THE "
EXCEPTIONAL
" QUALITY OF THIS SPECIAL VINTAGE TIMEPIECE FOR YOURSELF.
A PICTURE IS STILL WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS..................................
