There's nothing wrong with that......It all good!
The only thing I'd have done is a service.
The scatches etc on the case and crystal should be left as is IMO.
Enjoy the new watch!

plan to clean the crystal with polywatch...

few more shots:
* last pic: nothing wrong with the dial, just the crystal, so does it qualify as 'spider' dial

enjoy
