    Restoration Grade Instrument Overhaul Shops

    There are a lot of good instrument overhaul shops out there. I am looking for some pireps on shops that have the ability to do a very high quality job on dial and bezel restoration in addition to the mechanical overhauls. I am concerned that not all shops have the same capabilities for making...
