If the lens is bad you can replace it but you have to be careful of the clock bezel rivets, if you pry gently between them you can remove the bezel from the clock, change the lens and then re-stake the rivets.

The face on the 65-67 clocks in most cases can be brought back to life by rubbing them with Finesse-it by 3M (used for removing swirl marks in paint) or any "VERY" mild compound.

The needle paint you can get from Testers at your local hobby shop.

Thanks for posting that 65g... The price was corrected after I saw this post, looks like it updated incorrectly in our last price update.
