Ross,
you're definitively more inside these type of models than I am but honestly your listings look a little too low. I just took a look at one of the most popular trade-sites and I see higher prices, probably it really makes a difference living in UK, where I argue you're writing from.

IMHO you should leave the watch untouched, unless there is a need to undo a bad restoration. If you want the Extract from the Ledger you will have to send the watch to Schaffhausen, in which case I strongly recommend that you specify clearly you do not want any service done to the watch. The W.W.W. restored at Schaffhausen have different, less desirable, dials and hands.
