  1. Just to chime in. I've had a restauration done 2 years ago of my dad's old watch. It was similair to this one (a gold plated Bulova, about the same age I guess). Costs weren't that high. I got a new gold plating, 10 micron, which was only around €80, say $110. Omega itself uses a much thicker layer of gold if I'm correct, 30 or 40 microns. Also my usual watchmaker serviced the movement and I got new generic hands, a new generic crown and a new generic crystal. Total cocts was around € 200. Any watchmaker could do it. But, for me, it was important to restore the watch and be able to wear it. I didn't really care searching for original parts. Put a nice croc strap on it and it's like new! Be sure to bring tisseus when your mom sees it
  2. Supermirrors is UK based. He is also a trusted dealer here.
  3. The old Heuer logo implies that this is one of the special edition Carrera's in honour of Jack Heuers 80th birthday. But it's nowhere near the real thing. Read further about these watches at calibre11.com.
