I am thinking it may be time for a little polywatch love on the plexi, I have found that I really enjoy a clear and clean dome to view this rail-y old dial...

Hi guys. Picked up this project 5513 today. Only have a couple of crappy pics until Tuesday when she arrives. Probably going to do a full restoration on it. 7.3 million serial. Cool story. Bought from a guy selling for the original owner. Bought new and worn daily for 30+ years. Clearly needs some TLC but case looks nice and thick. Original MKIII. Bracelet will go to MY for restoration. Case to a friend who is a bevel master. Then to my watchmaker for a service, new dome and whatever else is needed.
Not my birth year grail Bart piece, but excited about a new project.
