16750 GMT Restoration - LAWW touched up vintage restore

I bought a nice 1983 GMT last August with intentions to swap in the correct handset and servicing it. After correcting those parts it needed something else.

After a trip to LAWW recently for something minor I pulled the trigger on a “vintage restore”. They refinish the top of the lugs and fix the chamfers/bevels. They leave the case sides as they are, they don’t polish them. Then they clean the band up, adjust the clasp and fit the endlinks. I have worn it since so it has some marks...
