flightmaster "returns from the dead"


Hi Guys,

A couple of weeks ago, I posted that my flightmaster was in Bienne getting a full restoration.

A few of you remarked on its poor condition ( well OK ,it was just Sam ) :-(

It arrived home today !!

I hope you're sitting.

On the left "before", on the right "after" (But I think you can work that out ! )

I am "well chuffed" with the results :-)

They sent me all the replaced parts back, including all crowns & pushers ( YES the split coloured pushers are available from Omega again ! ), dial hands, case back, crystal,inner rotating ring & plenty of movement parts.

I have a NOS bracelet from Watchco.

Now all I need is the original box for a flightmaster !

It was more than worth the wait !

Please excuse the watermarks. I don't want the pics turning up in an eBay auction.

S.
