Default Gauge rebuild recommendations

The amp gauge on my 57 does not work meaning it does not show charge or discharge. Originally I thought of buying an amp/oil gauge but then I thought that the best way would be to send mine off for a rebuild. Any thoughts about who does this best?

I just got my gauges, tach and speedometer back from Corvette Clocks & Gauges. I sent them in through Corvette Central. All the gauges looks and work great now!

Restorations by Karl in Westminster MD. Karl Burl worked for Corvette Specialties of MD restoring gauges, wiper motors, headlight motors, etc, before CSoMD relocated to California, and stayed in Maryland opening his own business after they moved. Karl's been doing gauges me for years, first when he was at Corvette Specialties and I've continued to use him since he went on his own.
