Picked up the 2000 today, my local guy did a great job! Didn't cut away too much metal to be noticeable at all and left some of the character marks there so you still know it's an older watch. Overall it cleaned up nice! He also realigned the seconds hand to land on the seconds markers pretty much perfectly every time.

My old Seiko I'm having him fix to give to my wife for Valentine's Day is still under the knife. A new Kinetic battery didn't do it so he's trying to oil and clean up the movement before he starts replacing parts. Will post back some thoughts when I get that back...it's actually a great looking watch, I had forgotten how much I liked it back before I was a watch guy
