5512 Back from the spa...

Left my 5512 in the hands of my watchmaker and friend Mr. Charlie Cleves of Cleves and Lonnemann Jewelers...just picked this beauty up about 45 min ago and all I can say is WOW!!! When I posted it initially back in April it definitely had some character to say the least...and to my surprise, with the good folks here and Charlie...you both advised me the insert that came on it when I purchased it was aftermarket...but oh well ...had them service, regulate, pressure test, replace gaskets, change the insert and put on a new T19-25 ...Charlie never lets me down and his prices are beyond reasonable....some before shots before I reveal this beauty....Name:  image.jpg
