Morning all, and a glorious spring Friday in the South of England. Picked this wee beasty from the watchbox today. It’s having to scratch the itch I have for a Cartier Tank!

This 66-7100 was, once, clearly a well-looked after watch judging by the service marks inside the caseback (and, interestingly, on the reverse of the dial). Whoever had it open last wasn’t the most sympathetic. The replacement crystal was clearly a little too large and had been shaved and sanded, and then glued to the case, the chapter ring was glued to the case, a dial washer had been stuffed under the crown wheel and a case clamp from another movement stuffed under one of the train bridge screws. It wouldn’t wind properly as it kept slipping, which was due to a very worn winding pinion and clutch - replaced from a spare 6602B. I’ve given it a full service, cleaned the dial and chapter ring as best I can, and replaced the crystal. It still needs a replacement stem (very rusted) and crown but they’ll get done whenever I can pick them up. For now, it’s a lot better than it was!
