I picked this watch up from Silix a few weeks ago. The first thing I did when I got it was to rough it up with a brass brush then polished the crystal with some poly watch and the case and bracelet with a jewelers cloth. I repeated this process about three times.

I've been looking at that same model, but the weird looking lume has kept me from buying it...

Not a bad watch. A new dial and some lug holes would give you a sweet watch.
