Plastimo Olympic 135
A big thank you to Plastimo in France for their help restoring my Olympic 135 Compass.
After 25 years in the sun the exposed bits had faded, suffered a few knocks and cracks were appearing.
Bought a new sun cover and light from Whitworths but the base isn't a standard spare part.

Contacted Plastimo direct & they agreed to send a new base to Aust.

So, polished the lens with some toothpaste, topped up the oil to clear a bubble that had formed and reassembled.
I think it looks good as new.

Thanks again Plastimo for supporting your product 25 years later.
