It Took Me One Year To Finish This Restoration
I’m restoring a Movado wristwatch equipped with an automatic movement calibre 608. The watch is from the 1960s.
The watch suffers water damage and heavy wear. The case has no shape at all and the gold plating is damaged. It took me one year to finish this restoration. A lot of parts were rusty and had to be cleaned or replaced. I made one step forward and two backwards until I got all parts done. Finally I was able to finish the restoration of this lovely Movado wristwatch.
So here we are. Let's see what we can do.
Hope you enjoy the restoration 😊
