Gonna need a bit more than a fresh crystal and a polish as some are trying to say; look at that corrosion on that crown tube, god only knows how bad the corrosion on the movement and etc may be, but all that said it's still plenty worth restoring. But you're gonna need to find someone who can strip the entire watch dow...

Yeah I wouldn't mess with the crown at all until you get it to someone who can perform the aforementioned services, but it does point to a good direction with how everything is condition wise. Still needs to have a complete teardown service and rebuild but overall if the bones are good it shouldn't take much in the way...

Hello…I was unable to locate the rose gold timepiece with this exact dial. The silver case was the closest I could find. Anyone have a suggestion or watchmaker that can assist? I’m looking to swap the silver out for rose gold, thanks in advance.

That's going to take some precision/talent to plate the case/clasp or luck to find both pieces. Best case would be to keep looking and sell the other when you find it. Just my thought. GL! Beautiful watch.

If you have the old stem look up a DG2813 winding stem and see if it looks the same, from there if it does (the end that fits into the movement) order a new one and if you still have your old crown cap, remove the stem from it and thread in a new stem. If you don't have the crown cap look for a 6mm (guessing but look u...
