    After another year with me in the autoshop it is time for some cleaning.

    This guy has a hard life with me.

    So I have to inspect it a little closer.

    The secondhand is not working after all those vibrations he got with me.

    Now I realize it will be a deep diving in the movement, so I give it to my friend Tony.

    So he have to get deeper inside it to find the problem.

    I pull out the cleaning machine.

    dj20233.jpg

    And add some serious stuff.

    Now we talking.

    A new crystal and back with the bezel.

    The springbars is in bad condition.

    dj202329.jpg

    So a fresh pair will do it.

    Time for a leak test.

    dj202330.jpg

    And the movement running great.

    The final result, good for another year with me.
