What would you do tb1

[Pospaintballer]

i picked up this tb1 yellow face ion plated that looked in pretty good condition online but here's what I got.
Faded band scratched to hell. Scratched crystal but most concerning is the silver on the time hands is either corroded or just flaked off.
Is there any way to repair this as I would really like to have this watch looking like it should.

In a word:NO.

How was it advertised. What was the exact wording?

Maybe you could ask THE X-MAN.

But I've not heard anyone on here who has tried to do a Black Chrome finish.....especialy on a TB.

But as to whether either of the above would be able to do the same finish or not.........?

May be able to polish out the scratches in the crystal............

So expected some wear but it's a bit much compared to the pics. It'll be an everyday if I don't get it fixed up.

Well, seek out the above two members and see how things go. The advert seems to be legit: it's how you read into things that matter.........
