This beautiful
18K Gold Chaumet
chronograph was in a terrible auto accident. The outer bezel was
crushed flat. The folks in Switzerland said the owner's only option
was complete case replacement. We restored it successfully, as you can
see. This was one extremely happy man. |
|
This 1965 18K
HGE Accutron Spaceview, from Oregon, was fully restored. The case was badly etched and eroded from years
of use. The hands were badly discolored and without luminous material
and the chapter ring had been "washed" clear of all markings by what we like
to call a "watch plumber" |

This
beautiful 1940s Hamilton mechanical wrist watch was fully restored.
This was certainly one delighted customer. It was inherited and will
now be cherished by another generation. |
|
This
fabulous Longines Mechanical wristwatch was inherited after decades of
faithful service. The diamonds were missing, the dial was illegible and
the case was thought to be a lost cause. It's now being worn every
day. |
|
This
Piaget had been a
hurricane Katrina victim, stuck in a bank safety deposit box and completely
ruined. The lapis was even broken in half. |
|
This
wonderful vintage Accutron Railroad was actually buried under a mountain of debris
and was thought to be lost for over 25 years. |
|
This
was another inheritance piece which had been carried for decades.
Although it's difficult to tell, this is a 20 year (gold filled) case which
was completely restored and re-plated, making this full restoration a huge
success with the owner and his family. |
|
This
beautiful 1974 Oval Case Accutron Spaceview was fully restored top to bottom as a college
graduation gift for the owner's grandson. What a great idea. |

vintage Accutron saved from the bottom of the sock drawer after 25 years. |
|
A
fantastic 18K Gold Patek Phillipe restored for one of our customers recently. |

beautiful Union Horlogere minute repeater belonged to our customer's
grandfather. It's traditionally handed down through the generations...and
will continue to be in perfect form and function! |
|
This
Royale 18K Gold Accutron Astronaut is one magnificent sight. |
|
A
customer's 14K Gold Accutron Alpha, fully restored. |
|
This is
handsome 2182 Accutron we fully restored for a customer. The starburst
sand marks should be of particular note. They're extremely difficult to
reapply after years of "heavy-handed" people polishing them off. |
|
This
extremely rare A. Lange & Sohne Fliegeruhr was military issue for the elite
German Luftwaffe pilots during WWII. Our customer had no idea what he had
inherited when he brought this to us for identification and appraisal.
This watch had been inherited from his Grandfather, who had flown a
Messerschmidt. This watch measures a massive 55mm in width and used a
heavy leather strap which was designed to be worn over the flight suit. |
|
This terrific
1950 Bulova mechanical was sent in only for a minor adjustment and appraisal,
but because of its "new/old" condition, we thought everyone might appreciate the
Bulova excellence of that era. |
