The 2023 DateJust cleaning After another year with me in the autoshop it is time for some cleaning. So I start to pull it apart. This guy has a hard life with me. Lets open it up. The movement looks great. But there is some issues. So I have to inspect it...  

I look forward to your DateJust cleaning post every year!

Looks great!

The antidote to single-use disposable product culture!

Kudos to you! Great story and I love the pics. I think the main reason I so liked it is because it completely defies the disposable values so prevalent in consumer goods, white goods, cars and everything else. How can you build and sell a car where you ca...
