the best advice i can suggest is.....
In Response To: Dial Cleaning Advice ()

to do nothing to the dial.....seriously. what seems like a small annoyance will easily become a much bigger one if you try to fix it.

most watchmakers will tell you to not mess with a dial at all.

also another point to consider...imo, all original is far better than even the best redial. so imo, i'd leave it alone and learn to live with it. the only good solution, imo, is to wait for a better conditioned version of the same model to show up. then buy it and sell yours off. just my thoughts on it, but good luck to you if you decide to try to clean the dials.
