To use the current snowboarder speak.. "you've ripped the lid off that"..
It's a wonderful restoration, and exactly what I would have done. As the others have said, sometimes a watch like this works out well and becomes a firm favourite because of the 'saving of it'.

Restoration aside, I think these Autavias are so beautifully balanced in design, definitely one of my favourite watches.

By the way, did Abel restore the case?
