Restoration of a 1970s Tissot PR516 Electric
Picked this watch up on eBay for 5 bucks hoping a a cleaning and a battery change would get it working. I had to replace the battery bridge as it was broken. That is why it says wittenaurer. Then I cleaned and oiled all the jewels. And gave a deep clean to the case and a polish to the crystal. Now I have the incredible Tissot that keeps fantastic time and runs like a dream.
