Project Update - Heuer Autavia 7763

So, you may remember a month back I picked up this 7763 Autavia in a sorry state.
Bezel was glued on, crown was wrong brand, glass was scratched etc etc...
Well, here we are now -
 
I'm really pleased with the results.
A bit of patience and work proved well worth while.
Turns out the main spring was busted also so while Rich Askham sorted that for me he gave it a service and relumed the hands to match the lovely coffee dial markers - cheers mate :-)
Sure, it still has that used look about it with more than the odd scuff here and there but there's no way I'll be changing that - it's just the way I like it.
