·I picked up this 1967 Seamaster 300 165.024 a couple of weeks ago from an estate and unfortunately the previous owner had the watch “restored”.
He had replaced the crystal, band and cleaned up the dial. I was able to locate the original 1039 band and repaired the broken link. But I am at a loss as to what todo with the dial, leave it alone or find someone to re-apply correct numbers.
As a collector I would like to have this watch as original as possible but is this watch worth the expense of restoring the dial?
