New member of the Foxy household (hence me posting at 4:20am). No, not the Omega, although it did come back to me last week from a trip to see Simon Freese, who did a repair and put the case on a lathe. It had been polished by hand previously (you can't lap these cases, they're front-loading) and didn't look good but Simon told me he could give the case a radial finish by taking off minimal metal. It looks superb, considerably better than the previous soft and uneven finish, and I've been wearing it pretty much since it came back.
