    Slava 27 jewel day/date. Just arrived on Saturday , running to time so far . Nearly new fixo flex stainless/gold strap (very clean) Unusual deep maroon dial , gold plated case , nice sunburst to dial , some scratches on original crystal , hopefully with some elbow grease they will go. Another bargain imo £21. Well pleased.

    Thanks . I just hope I can get the scratches out. I've practiced on another crystal with nail sand blocks and silver brasso and got good results.

    Here's the block i used , it has a spongy middle so use gently ( only on acrylic) it looks a bit extreme when you start but eventually comes up good.

    it's weird looking for a 3602 with the winder at 12 these use to be cheap as chips as no good for conversion unless you had a spared dials to flip them to the three position so ..no one use to buy them but now they seem just as expensive to get hold of ..few years back you could get a handful for little money

    I bought a funky strap converter for a p.w but the one I had planed to use it on would not fit (well could not get anything to fit at first ) I had case from a 12 position pw 3602 open front and well with some difficult got it fitting it ..well have left it in the strap to shape and stretch it ..

    but having a hard time finding a pw to fit the 3602 dimensions so try twice one turn out to be a mini p.w and the other was damaged beyond repair ( well need a new regulating arm ..so cheaper to buy a working one then to buy one to chance the arm is ok so not worth the effort )



    so hope I get some of your luck mate
