New Fat Lady Back From Service
My Fat Lady arrived, and I immediately sent her off to Rikki for a service. He worked her over and shipped her back to me very quickly. I asked him not to polish watch, just service the movement, replace the gaskets and any other parts that needed to be replaced. Less then a week turnaround!
I don't exactly consider a 16760 to be a "vintage" watch, but I spend alot of time here cuz this is where all the cool kids are! Thanks Rik! Here she is: I just switched her over to a NATO strap. I'll post those pics later. Thanks for all the help!! Ken

Thank you!
I've worn her everyday since Rik serviced it. Can't seem to take her off! Ken
