Beautiful memory.
Oh no! If it hasn’t been sent off yet, please try putting it in a plastic bag of uncooked rice and get as much air out as poss before sealing.
Good luck.
Chris
Thanks Chris. I was thinking along similar lines myself. I’ll give that a try. It can’t hurt and the earlier I get the moisture out the less the damage later I guess.
You simply can’t sell that! You’d always regret it.
It’s a cracking watch and your father clearly had exceptional taste , but there are some nice mechanical watches at non-silly prices, especially Seiko Prospex
It deserves to be worn by you
I’d agree with not selling it. It may be worth getting it valued for insurance purposes though if you haven’t already.
This hurts maybe there is a reason why it’s called a Flieger.
I like that.
With the fine summer weather the Turtle emerges…
Nice watch unusual coloured face.
My wife bought me this as an engagement present in 2005, it still gets regular use from my collection and I still love it!
Have you got it back from the menders yet?
Not even sent yet Chris. Being picked up by DHL today.
