There's a place I thought was in Chicago here in the U.S. but it's not, called Gus's. They clean Dials and I've seen the work, very good.
I may try to brush it off, You're right there's nothing to lose.
Stephen, even though it didn't show in the pic the BULOVA logo on the Dial face is applied Gilt also, really a pretty piece.
The watch was just tossed into a drawer needing Glass and forgotton to collect dirt.
