Pics now showing..

Based on the one picture, looks ok. You may want to check the reference numbers on the case and inspect the movement..

Looks like a nice project. Even a good session with polywatch to clean up the crystal, plus a good soak and brush for the bracelet, will do wonders.

I'm not really familiar with watches. The watch didn't come with any paper or box. Where do I check the reference number?
Here's the movement of the watch: https://www.dropbox.com/s/3h1y22hule...%20PM.mov?dl=0

I like it. Polywatch, a soft bristled brush and a very little soapy water or Vereat and sending the bracelet to Michael Young will do it good. Factor a full service into the price as well.

What's TLC if you don't mind me asking?

Thank you. What soap do you recommend?

Thanks will look into these! How much do you think is this worth if fixed and cleaned?
