Dial has been cleaned and the black has started to be reinstated. |

Dial finished and back on the movement, with restored hands. | 
Cleaned and retouched the missing paint. When restoring a dial I do my best to do as little harm as I can when cleaning and try to keep as much of the original as passable, I am not keen on restored dials looking new. |

Back home after testing. |
