In Response To: Re: New Member w/ Autavia ()

Thanks for the responses and warm welcoming!

I think what I want is to just have it cleaned and put back together, rather than any restoring.

I looked over the reference guide on OTD. Am I correct that this watch is the 2446 Model M? It lists the catalog dates as '62/63. Can I learn from the serial numbers or other method whether was made in 1962 or 1963?

Also, it says the crystal was plastic. Do you all replace with sapphire stick to a plastic as was intended?

I am in the US (New Orleans, Louisiansa).

Regards,

Ty
