Thought I would update and share some pics in case anyone reads this.... In the end I went ahead with the whole thing. It took a while but I got it back this weekend. It's looking minty fresh with a new bracelet, crown and bezel (seems they replaced both the inner aluminium one & the steel outer part). Basically looks new!
Very happy overall. Only slight negatives are it didn't come back in a nice Omega watch case, just a cheap looking black unbranded box. Also there was no explanation of what they replaced in the movement. So they could have replaced the whole movement or nothing at all, no idea! It runs better now which is the main thing though, was -40s per day before, now -2s
