Check out the refurb on my $3.33 watch...

Submitted by plainsmen on February 14, 2011 - 11:04pm

Remember when I picked up that unknown mens and two other women's watches in that 3 watch lot for $10.00?

Well... here are the before and after pics!  I'd like to that Mike of Timemachines for this work helping me out.  What do you gents think?  Oh and did we ever find a name for this watch?

                 

                      BEFORE                                                                AFTER

 

I think with what he had to work with Mike did a great job for me.... 

 

There's a few other's I'll be posting up later... thanks for the look guys.

It has been refinished (note: The original has raised gold BULOVA and the restored version has black printed.)

The dial was replaced with one I had in stock. It was alot cheaper than having it redone.
