I think it’s pretty amazing the amount of engineering and machining that went into making these watches over 70 years ago. All without robotics, CAD, and the knowledge available at everyone’s fingertips on the internet.

Lol at the fact that from <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xUeAz2e-0jk&t=2178">36:18</a>, the second hand was dragging a speck of dust along the way :D And basically till the end of the video.

The watch is beautiful, but I would suggest some detail-work - there's clearly debris/specks of dirt on the dial and on the seconds hand, starting from <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xUeAz2e-0jk&t=2178">36:18</a> you can see the seconds hand picking up debris from the edge of the subdial and it sticks to the tip of it... Some gentle touch-up with a swab of Rodico and a blower to clear all the loosely flying dust would help a lot. Other than that...job well done, and it's a beautiful piece! As for the gasket you've taken off of it, that looked like a lead gasket rather than petrified rubber. Lead gaskets were quite common back then.

Excellent restoration. I noticed some dirt at the tip of the petite second hand. I am not sure if I am right. But you could have used a blower on the dial before casing the movement. On the whole a superb job.
