Their oil sucked because it wasn't made for watches and they needed cleaned frequently, but it looks so cool. And the one I am looking at has had modern service with modern oil. Open face watches are hit or miss but MAN this one hits. <cite>argonautweakend posted [p:957625748] in Gentlemen,...

argonautweakend 09/03/21 11:01:11 AM #3:	The midnight amazement factor of when i first saw it wore off. I still want it. This may be it...just gotta see what a reasonable price for a nice one is for one of these and see if i can find one. I see a serviced and nice looking one from a watch restoration website for 700. No idea if thats getting hosed or not. <cite>argonautweakend posted [p:957699988] in Gentlemen,... [t:79640629]...</cite> <quote>The midnight amazement factor of when i first saw it wore off.
