Hi Everyone
Should I re-gilt this watch? I inherited it from my Father. The gold plate has worn badly in parts but the face and dial are in perfect condition. Any idea of cost? Any idea of value?
Many thanks
Chris

I wouldn’t. It doesn’t look that bad to me, and furthermore you will be wiping away its history and probably reducing the value in the process. If you want something new, fit a nice new leather strap.
