Recased 70s blue agate dial Girard Perregaux

Fell in love with this dial at the time I saw it, but armis was completely unrecoverable, a couple of milanese links were broken, and case was decolorated by pieces, crown decaped and turned steel coloured, as watch hands that faded into a half gilt a half steel, so I decided to polish crown and hands and look out for a suitable case for this caliber and face. The Omega 162.010 fitted as a glove to the complete set, including the original backcase. I only had to adjust by softly sanding and file the original plexy borders to completely fit it all. As ending, a blue blackish original handmade watersnake strap and a 70s original steel GP buckle to get it back as brand new!
