Rolex 6075 restoration

Hello
Just acquired this big bubble back 6075
As you can see it needs restoring dial ,bezel hands and crown
Also the rotor is loose
Can anyone advise on who to send it to or a source of parts
It's running -3 sec a day and the case is unpolished
Thanks nick

In the US, I would direct you to Mr. Taylor, R.W.T. on the Forum. He recently completed my 6098.

If you ever swap out those hands, I could use the sticks. Hard to find gold plated ones that will fit my 6426.

Even if you send it form the UK, RWT is still your man.

He's one of very few deep experts in restoring these vintage pieces and has impeccable references.

My gut says the dial is refinished. Not service. It could be but ... it doesn't look right to me.

Now...I've sent you a PM.
