pie-pan, wedge-shaped hour markers, movement in great condition, casing looks decent ? I would pause a little on the casing - based on the pics at least, but with a pie-pan, and those other factors mentioned earlier - and if the price is correct - I would go for it personally.

Hi Shing and TMW57. It was a rhetorical question.:-) The case will be cleaned but not polished. It has some light scratches which will remain. This is a 50 yo Ingenieur, from the days when the word had meaning, and the wrinkles must show. If I wanted shiny and perfect looking watches I would be buying new ones. :-) She is perfect in every aspect, although I believe there will be someone who will find defect even where there is none.:-)

Sounds like a perfect plan in every way. Enjoy!
And yeah, I definitely agree. Beside movement service, it should remain as it is.
