·My dad’s 2975-1SC that I inherited just came back from service and it runs spectacularly well, but they weren’t able to clean the corrosion off the dial—I knew this ahead of time, but I was hoping most of the gunk was dirt and grime that could be cleaned up to leave a relatively light patina, and unfortunately it wasn’t. Now that I’ve had it back for several days I am considering swapping out for a replacement dial and hands, and also getting the biggest scratches polished out.
The place I used for service has access to order replacements from Omega, but I’m a bit on the fence. I’ve been told they look different from the original 50s dials. Has anyone done this, and did they regret it? I’m torn between wanting to maintain the original watch, and wanting to wear a very nice looking watch.
