When I first got my 6306, the crystal had light scratches & the hands were showing their age (not to mention no longer glowed-in-the-dark). But the case and dial was is pretty good shape, although the hour markers no longer glowed-in-the-dark & there were a few light spots on the dial.
So off I went to my watch guy to get the watch cleaned & lubricated and to have the crystal & hands replaced. When it came back, guess what......he had mounted the wrong type of second hand (the luminous dot was at the wrong end, looked like ones from the current SKX007/009 range).
Managed to get the right second hand after some time, so here's my 6306 as it looks now.....
This guy enjoy's more wrist time than my 009J or 011J. Just love the look. Next in line will be getting the dial cleaned up and re-lumed.
Thanks for looking
Manoj
