Now some questions...

First - do you think the dial is original?
I'm not one of those collectors that likes to see battle scars so unless the dial is the one it originally shipped with I'll have it refinished. This is a watch that gets worn daily, not a museum piece.
With that in mind I'm considering having the small dent pushed out by e jeweller. They will create a wooden form and use it to gradually push the dent out and get the case back to mint.
What are your thoughts on this?
Finally, I'm going to have the steel parts lightly polished to minimise the surface corrosion but not enough to remove deep pits or alter the dimensions.
I'd love to hear your opinions!
Thanks
John
