David AbbeA 12s 21J Waltham "rescued" thanks to Brian C.
As openers, I must repeat that along with the seller of the remaining LaRose stocks, IHC185 has the cooperation of another of the nicest and most agreeable "original" maker parts sources available today; Brian C. at;
pwpartsetc@pwatch.com
This time, when I received a 12s Waltham and was "astonished"

to find an "empty nest" with only a very used staffless Balance wheel. In a parts tin marked "12s Colonial", Brian C. found the exact parts I needed . . .

David AbbeWhich fully deserves it's restoration to honor what must be quite a piece of History!

This restoration raises to almost 30, the "count" of successful restorations due to the "Two Br(y)ians". THANK YOU AGAIN!

Brian C.Dave,
Thanks for the kind words. I'm always happy to help our 185 people find the parts they need.
Seeing that nice watch, I'm really glad I had your part.
