Thats true Allen, it's kind of fun wearing it the way it is, its like having a classic car thats a beater. Restoring it may be great but you know the dents and dings tell some kind of story and when people see it they will recognize that. Finding the dial and hands may be an expensive venture too unless I can find a real deal on these components. I like wearing my watches and if I bang this one up I wont feel so bad but I'll still be rockin a Heuer Autavia Chronomatic.

: From the pics, the dial and hands don't look
: to be particularly bad.
: I'd get a new crystal or get this one
: professional polished, and either wear the
: watch as is or sell it here and buy a nicer
