My DJ is back from SPA

My 11 years old DJ just got back from Texas.
2 years ago, my Dad gave it to me. It was his beater that he played golf with.
I was kind of nervous that it was never serviced before then Vivian called that basic factory services should do it.

Beside it's look wonderful, I noticed very smooth manual winding.

Let see the final result








Thanks for looking.

Looks brand new! In fact BETTER than brand new since it has a little patina to it. It's aged like a fine wine!

Tommy, I'm guessing you won't be using that beauty as a beater any time in the near future.

Cheers,

Chris

I have been wearing this watch for 3 days now. I kept looking at it. I feel like having a new watch. I am still amazed about how this thing could go back to the new condition again.
+1 or +2 second per day so far.
I realized just now that Jubilee is the work of art, it's center links used to be dull.
I will baby this one from now since it was a gift from my Dad.
Thanks every one for the comments.

Your watch looks great. If you don't mind, how much did the service costs?
