Nice restoration. Shame about the GMT seconds hand

Nice job ! Great original dial but it should be easy to find an original ( at least original looking ) seconds chrono hand like the on David's Poormans .

: I made a post on this forum about an old heuer
: a few months back, it was pretty banged up
: and wouldn't function properly. A few months
: ago I sent it in to a man named Axel Ruist,
: a very skilled watchmaker here in Sweden.

: He worked a whole lot on the watch, and
: yesterday I got it back. It functions great
: now, and it's definatley a keeper. Getting a
: hirsch rally strap for it, to show off it's
: car-related history.
