  1. I gave it a bit of a clean yesterday. It' good what 1000 grit wet or dry and some Solvol can do.

  2. Rossco, for cleaners I use L&R ultra fine cleaner and L&R #3 rinse and I have very good results. I'm planning to go Zenith when these bottles run out just to compare results. I like the watches to look factory new and so far L&R has done a rather good job but I want better. Careful with some solutions and heat (even the heat generated by the ultrasonic machine) since they are highly flammable.

  3. Just out of curiosity, have you checked the dial face itself? Some Ingersoll watches had tiny screws in the face (at the edges) going vertically into the movement. And welcome from me!

  4. Man that's an elegant watch! I'll really like to see a write-up on restoring case finish and glass. All the tips and tricks **Hint Hint Geo** That's just as important to learn as repairing the movement.

  5. I definitely recommend getting one Rossco, you'll find it a useful tool in your armoury for cleaning lots of things as well as watches.

  6. Being of a careful nature and wanting the best bang for my buck I bought a Chinese one off the Bay, I'm no toolmaker but it works fine for me. I would say the one from Lidl would be just the job.

  7. The restoration of the dials for real quality watches seems very reasonable when you consider the total value of the watch.
