I'm only an enthusiast, not an expert, however I can give you my two cents worth.
The case looks honest, with dings and marks, but sharp edges. The inner bezel has a strong colour with some of the numerals showing missing parts. The lume shows discolouration, perhaps some water/humidity has got in over the years. The crystal is marked, but the dial seems sound underneath. The bracelet looks correct, but I believe there is a tapered and non tapered version, and I'm not sure which goes on this model year. The hour and minute hands do look a little rough. At the right price, my thoughts would be under 400 pounds, it might be a reasonable candidate for restoration. That said, I'd be looking for a better example. |

Service $$$ will depend on what needs doing and where you are. In Australia, a service like this would begin at $500 AUD.
