    My father was a woodworking craftsman, and I fully appreciate what Peter just did. Peter took a watch that was butchered by the last watch repair person and restored it to almost new condition. Well done Peter!

      @@dannysimenauer5745 appreciate it!! Thank you, I wish I could do more for this piece unfortunately limited tooling won’t allow me to re “bark” it but overall happy with the outcome!

    My grandfather was a watchmaker from the Schwarzwald in Germany who came to the US almost 100 years ago. Peter- you do him proud by carrying on a great tradition.

      I used to own a 18078, but with a silver dial and the President bracelet. In my opinion, that bracelet is what a Day-Date should have on it. When the light hit the barked bracelet links at just the right angle, it would look like it was on fire. No diamonds on the dial for sure. This particular model has the quick-set function for the date only.

    Do you replace the crown o-ring ? With your detailing/overhaul ? The water tight gasket?

    edit man those baguette diamond markers really don't look good on that watch and they look poorly done.

    Probably , imo, there is a background frequency and microvibrations, microwaves coming out of the underground, or from neighboring building houses, at the place where that watch owner lives, which thicken body fluids, dry up human bodies, destroying plastic items, parts, dry lubricants in the watches, and other luxury items, may even losen screws.

    Polishing a Rolex is blasphemous this poor watch 😂 I’m kidding but also I’ve always been told not.
