-53 Fat Arrow
Today is a good day! I got my Fat Arrow back from the watchmaker with confirmation that it is all correct (there were some question marks). That is, correct apart from it lacking the ring holding the movement in place and the plexi being incorrect. I couldn’t believe my luck when I was told he had both the right plexi and the ring for the movement in his shop. Now the movement is serviced and the dial and hands carefully cleaned. Time to be thankful of skilled craftsmen with good stockpiles of parts.
Edit: maybe this belongs in the Omega forum. Moderators, feel free to move it.
