Can the more experienced members comment on why they might feel adding the correct bezel would be paid for in a resale? Seems very difficult to get your money back on resale unless you have an incredibly superb example with only an incorrect or badly damaged bezel. The correct path forward seems very dependent on intention to wear or sell.
@edgware14 please advise on this if you can. If the goal is the wear the watch for a considerable period of time, having it all correct could be very enjoyable for the owner. Based on how the 2998-4 sold on eBay, seems difficult to comprehend how the seller could even recoup the cost of the faded bezel listed here in terms of incremental gains in selling price.
In the question of reluming or not to relume, seems safer to just let the buyer make that decision, but James Hyman apparently does amazing work if the current owner decides they would like a more attractive dial. Again, a bit dependent on the sell or keep decision.
