Breitling Professional Chronospace Automatic Black Dial Men's Watch A2336035-BA68BKOR

First post about my Wakmann
Hope this is the correct place for this postI have owned a Wakmann Chrono for almost 50 years. It is a 2 dial (blue) gold plated case with florescent orange sweep second hand for the stop watch function. I had it serviced about 5 years ago and it has sat in my safe since. Took it out to use it for a function I attended and find the crown was replaced with one much smaller in diameter than the original so it makes it hard to wind. Also, the stem seems stiff to pull out to set the time and the stop watch function plungers seem stiff also. I was told it was a Breitling movement as it has WOG stamped on the inside.I am going to presume the crown can be replaced with a larger one and the stiffness can be corrected. Am I correct in my assumptions?Thanks for any reply

New member new question: Oris Artelier or Invicta Vintage
First post and hoping to get some quality feedbackI was never really into watches until recently when my Fossil broke down. After 3 weeks of intensive learning, I've finally learned how important a quality watch is. I started looking for 2 watches, one for business/formal wear and one for casual everyday wear. I decided that they need to be automatic and simple, no special features just ability to tell time. I wanted a watch from a known reputable company but not one that costs too much. Omegas, Breitlings, etcwere already too high for me so I looked for the middle ground.I love roman numerals and found the dress watch. I bought a Raymond Weil Tradition watch The casual watch was a tough one, not many come in roman numerals so I left it as an option. I wanted something that would go with almost anything especially a navy blazer. My jeweler friend suggested that I look into Invicta or Oris and sure enough I found two watchesI Love the way the Invicta looks and its a good price, but the

Omega Mark 2
Hi gang. I have a 1970 Omega Mark 2 that I bought in Vietnam, thought about sending it to Switzterland for restoral. It's still very nice and non faded dial, hour markers still lume briefly to this day. Should I send it for a total makeover or is it worth more all original?? Always thought they should be kept original but would really like to see this as I bought it way back when, advise welcome..

Rolex DJ 41 Two-Tone right now or save for a Day-Date in Rose Gold?
Background: I'm 36, male, bald (shaved head), close-cropped perma-beard, athletically built (6'2, 215lbs, broad shoulders). I mention this to offer some context for the question I'm wrestling with about my next purchase.Current Collection: Submariner 114060 (2016) that is my daily/travel/go-everywhere watch. I have a Deep Blue dive watch from my significant other that I wear casually on a NATO and an Orient Polaris GMT (from my deceased mom) on a blue gator strap. The Orient and Deep Blue are obviously sentimental so I'm not looking to duplicate either of those.Personal Style: I work either from home or at a client site in software, so dressing for work is very casual. I haven't worn a suit in a few years but wear sportcoats with slacks regularly for more dressy occasions. I also live in Southern California, so between my line of work and location it's really casual. I tend to wear what I'd call refined-casual; have been taking style inspiration recently from easy Italian looks-- lots
