I Guess I Will Not Be Selling My Russian Pilot


Recommended Posts

In the process of selling this, someone asked me to measure the dial. I ended up scratching the case, so I polished it, then decided to change the movement and hands. In the end, I'm pretty happy with it but may lose the screw down crown option. I know everyone may not be obsessed with gold hands, but right now, I am The first two are before shots, the last two are afters. The movement was changed from the Russian to the eta 6497. Also, as you may notice, I haven't polished the back yet. Whoever suggested the cap cod and dremel,,,excellent idea. It worked better and was easier than all the polish paste. Thanks.
