Snow(flake) arrived early in Maryland ...
    A blue snowflake that is :) Now I need to decide if I should wear it for a while or send it off to the spa. |

Very cool.......if you don't know service history, may be safe to get it serviced.

If it works - wear it. Get the movement frequency/accuracy tested, maybe have a watch-maker (at an AD) open it up and give it a quick look over, and pressure test it, and then take a view on a service. Lovely 'Flake' !

Nice one Marty - a couple of nibbles on your crown but overall looks pretty spick-and-span in the pics

Don't touch it. It's perfect!
So... How much did you pay if you don't mind me asking? |
