Time for repairs…

Recently sold at the Market, this classic Swiss-made, Omega watch in 14 karat gold is a great advertisement for the brand’s durability. This highly collectable timepiece had been languishing in a drain somewhere for upwards of twenty years before it was recovered in a chance trawl by someone fishing with a magnet.

Happily, this once upon a timepiece does have a fairytale ending: its new owner is sending it back to the makers to restore it to its former glory.
