Many thanks, dsio. I've come across comments by others about how salts/bleaches can be used to fade the paint, but it's interesting how the luminescent dots on the dials have also lost their luminosity! You're quite right - It does look like its had a hard life with the amount of scratches on the insert. I guess I'm uncertain if the movement got damaged along the way! I'm having difficulty trying to assess what its worth is.
