Well, they were found tucked away nicely. As for the.....um, pube.........we aren't that close yet. Perhaps when I "Open her up" and "strip her down" I will get my reward
Hold on now......I will say that it winds wonderfully and it has been regulated to +4secs/day. BTW, did you see the caseback engraving?
Overall I think that once serviced, this will be the story of 2012....stay tuned
Of course they don't help improve anything. In fact, they are detrimental to a reliable movement.
Who says the Chinese have no quality control:
I am sure I will find more when I tear it down for a service.

Case looked to clean. No service history recorded in caseback other than from 1/12 and no date stamp. Non original bracelet and the dial and hands look to new.
Bezel re-brushed and painted(badly) and the Chronometer was from 74, blank and wrong serial number. Clean 1570 inside.
