Wow - what a great story!

Makes me more assured that I made the right decision to pull the trigger on an AP this week! Love that it is 34 years old, yet still has style that still resembles the models of today. Timeless piece - congratulations.

Well done. Mine is actually 36 years old. Thanks for the compliments.

I promise, however, if necessary, I will only sell it for exhibition purposes at the AP Museum in Le Brassus.

I joined the forum as being referred to this thread by my friend.

I contacted Hal and he was very helpful!

Congrats on getting the watch back in pristine condition.

When i get my watch sorted out there will be a post on my experience. One which spans til now 6months and hopefully not much longer.
