When I worked as tech support, whenever I had to call over to the Philippines I thought their accent made them all sound retarded. It didn't help that they could barely do their job. I thought it was a bad joke.

Anyone know how to get the tarnish off this watch?
I have this old 50's era breitling that I put a nylon strap on, I wear it as a casual every day watch. I don't like a big clunky fancy watches unless I'm dressed up for it. Been wearing it for years and all of a sudden I don't know if it's tarnishing or the finish is coming off or what, I'm not sure if it's nickel or stainless, doubt it's silver. I don't want to take it to my watch guy because he takes 3 months to do anything, they're all like that around here. I would just go get it dipped at a jewelry store but I can't get the movement out without pulling out the stem and I don't know enough about watches to do that. I tried gently with a toothbrush, soap and water as I read that may work....I have to be careful I'm assuming it's not waterproof, but it didn't do anything.
Anyone have any ideas, something I can try before I just go to a jewelry store and see what they say....I've had zero time during the day lately.
Thanks fellas

No idea, but nice watch
Thanks brother I like it, it's very understated it makes a nice every day watch especially with the nylon band, I'm not a fan of flash. Which is all the more reason why I don't want it looking like it's gold because of tarnishing!
Nobody else seems able to deny doing so, but I can go on the record and say no, I haven't!

I got a Twitter notification that Henry Winkler liked a comment I made on a post about Happy Days!
However, he must have looked at some of my other comments or something, because now the like is not there any more!
