The canon pinion did work itself loose again.  I send a bunch of watches to my regular watchmaker, including this one, and he referred to the canon pinion as being "stubborn", so I took that to mean that it probably isn't as simple as I imagine it to be.  But maybe I read too much into that statement.

Back to vintage style straps, I should be posting pictures of my second Torre strap.  But when I ordered it I somehow neglected to mention that it should be open ended to go with my newly reacquired green gold mystery Import.  :blush: Now I have a beautifully made 14mm brown strap with no obvious watch to pair it with.  In my mind brown leather pairs with green and yellow gold and black leather pairs with white and rose gold.  I'll either have to hunt down a green gold watch with 14mm lugs or break my usual rules.
