Just got the watch today. Cleaned up the crystal with an emery board and polywatch. Also, changed a stainless steel strap with a leather strap. This is my third GP HF. I think GP HF is the best value in vintage watch market. I post the before and after photos.

Syuji: That's yet another great looking watch! It really cleaned up well. I use Pollywatch and find that with a little bit of elbow grease, it does a fantastic job. What do you use the emery board for? Regards, Will
