What's everybody's thoughts on this? Generally I've been of the opinion that a clean up is fine but much more than that is sacrilege. BUT... I've recently picked up a nice Ultradive where I'm seriously thinking about getting some professional restoration work done. I've sought out who I think is the best in the business in the UK and now just need to decide what to do... here's a picture to give you an idea:-

As you can see, it looks like the varnish is flaking off and something has rubbed along the bezel at 30 to give it a smudge. I was thinking (and feel free to talk me out of it!) to get the bezel revarnished. That's it. No messing around with getting anything repainted like the yellow outline that's faded - pic of how they should be:-

I've never considered this sort of work before... should I just leave it? The smudge does annoy me a bit!
