My 56' 6569

I found this at a Texas antique show last weekend, so I asked the vendor if he worked trades which he does, so I went back this weekend with a box of vintage watches I cared little about along with some scrap gold.

Worked out perfectly and managed an even trade.

I happened to have a replacement crystal in my many tote boxes full of spare parts, after a quick cleanup it looks much better now.

I ordered a new Mainspring so will give it a service soon, even though it is keeping excellent time right now.

The bracelet is trashed but lucky these types can be fixed with a little work which I will do myself. I did some more work on the bracelet after I took these photos and it is already looking better.
