Any suggestion on where/how/if to get this fixed?

Hello everyone! Sadly, my Grandfather passed away a short time ago. He was not a watch enthusiast by TRF standards. However, he was very proud of his one watch and always had it attached to his wrist. In fact, it was my Grandfather that started my passion in horology and watch collecting.

I found out that he left me his watch. I am both touched and honored that he remembered me in this way. Unfortunately, the watch is not in working condition. I thought it might be a battery issue, but replacing the battery didn’t fix the problem.

Obviously, the watch has little to no monetary value. That said, due to it’s relationship to my Grandfather’s life, I would like to get it running again if at all possible. I can picture it with a new suede or leather strap. And wear it from time to time in his honor.

So, my question to all of you is how (if at all) can it be brought back to good working condition? Obviously, I don’t want to put a ton of money into it. But perhaps there’s a middle ground?

Any help would be much appreciated!
