    A pleasant surprise, the first one so far, was that the oxidation was mainly located on the outer rim and hadn’t infiltrated to deeply inside the movement, pity ;)
    But still, it was pretty gritty and the lever was actually rusted into position. The gold jewel settings have zero sign of their gleaming former glory, as these models of Rockies were the kings of their day in the RR world, that is before the big crash which implemented the new RR watch legislation. These models were instantly condemned to obscurity..again, a pity.
