There’s a nice dome dial dog leg on here for sale atm, and that’s around $1500 I think. It’s pretty mint. So, take that as a useful starting reference point.

I am wishing you my best and hoping that your Parkinson's progresses slowly and that you can manage it comfortably for a long time.

I think there is only one watch shown in different light conditions.

Dogleg is the style of case, dome dial is the style of dial.

Replacement crowns are common.
Did they return the original crown after service?

The different colour of the rotor shows that it has likely been replaced at some point.
It is, however, the correct earlier style that matches the watch age.

The dome dial is correct, has onyx inserts in the indices, however, the spotting on the dial does reduce the desirability/ value somewhat.

The lugs and bezel look to be in nice condition, which is important in this reference.
There are scratches on the case back where some ham-fisted person has tried to open the watch.

Movt serial dates the watch to around 1963, so an early 168.005

because of the dial, the watch won’t bring top prices for a dogleg dome dial I’m afraid as it will attract fewer collectors ( who tend to pay most for very good examples ) but I’d be surprised if it didn’t fetch more than $850 - it would all depend on who’s bidding for it.
