Some work ahead to clean this up and get it running, but I just love the look of it. Just arrived today.

Beautiful movement!

Adding to the list of things I am waiting on...
A 43mm case for my Asian 6497.

Something I have been debating for some time but finally run into a deal I couldn't pass. A Hamilton Khaki Field hand wind.

Anyone else in the US seeing big delays in overseas packages? I have packages from England, Ukraine, Indonesia, Lithuania, and China that have all been stuck on Departure from outward office for about a week when that usually only takes a day.

I am. I am just assuming everything from China and Europe is going to take twice as long for the time being.

You just added something else I need to keep an eye out for. Did you get it to do a conversion?
