The image below shows the before-and-after ClockSavant servicing pictures for a Landeron 52 vintage column wheel chronograph. Under the law of unintended consequences, whomever doused the watch in oil may have failed at getting the watch to run but they did succeed at protecting the movement against corrosion. While the work to remove this level of oil and grease is more than it may seem, other than a few minor items, the movement was well preserved and came-back to life wonderfully, running superbly after being fully serviced.
