Tudor chrono 79260 pics with dings!

Finally got some ok pics, so I thought I'd share. Any advice on a good lens for a canon 400d gratefully accepted. Some of the pics posted by other members are stunning and I'd love to improve my shots.

After reading loads of great posts on TRF I've fallen back in love with my watch. I love the concentric circles and the homage it pays to the 6263 Daytona.
I gave the bracelet a good clean and polish as per the TRF post from Tools (cheers). As you can see from the pics I have a ding on the crystal and a corresponding one on the bezel. Worst thing is, I'm not even sure how it happened. The watch is due a service as I don't believe its ever had one. I bought it from the original owner in 2006 and it is starting to lose a little time. If I send the watch off to RSC to get serviced, I understand that they can replace the parts, but won't return the original pieces. That a bit of a shame as I like to keep all those sorts of bits (I'm sure alot of you feel the same).

If anyone knows I would be grateful if you could tell me if I would get a matching replacement for the bezel from RSC or whether it would be a slightly different model. Could anyone recommend me a good independent watchmaker in the south east of England, so that I could keep the original parts?
