Hello Zaf, 18K yellow gold Gubelin, 17 jewel, self winding, adjusted 2 positions. The watch is in running condition but not serviced (though it will soon be when it arrives). The case measures 35 mm in diameter not including crown, and 40 mm lug to lug. There is an inner dust cover. Zaf -- though I would only do it if selling it - would a quality reface increase retail value? Who might you suggest for a top notch reface? What would you think of removing or replacing/repairing only the the mirror image 'Z's under the hourglass? Thank you, as always, for your time and consideration.    | ||

Rdials usually decrase the value of the watch unless the dial is trashed. Try the nawcc.org forum for a recommendation. | ||

I love the way this dial looks as it stands -- save that 'Z' to the left of the hourglass... Would you consider hazarding a ballpark of its valuation as it stands? Best, Ben | ||

With a dial that needs restoration, probably around $400-450. In my experience watches that have visible condition issues are difficult to sell. |
