they buffed, washed, and polished everything that can be touched and they tinker with the movement too. it cost me 700 CAD dollars tax included. Pretty amazing!

That is a nice Zenith! And from the Pics it looks great. In person, does it really look brand new? And I know it's early yet, but I'm curious if the accuracy will be better after the service(?). I should certainly hope so!

Yes, it really looks brand new. pretty amazing how they do that magic. so far no complaints about the accuracy but i'll know in 24 hours.

That looks fantastic. I love the fact that we can wear a watch daily then send it on a little little trip to the RSC and it looks like the day you bought it.

I know it's a classic. I'm always trying to sell it. I call it my nostalgia watch.
