Extremely Rare Military Watch Restoration - WW2 German Trench Watch 1938

This time I´m restoring an old military watch from the WW2-Era. It´s a Thiel with the Thiel “start“-movement. Based on the movement it should be made between 1938 and 1942. The watch is in a really bad condition. The chrome-plating of the case is severely damaged, the glass is scratched, the movement is rusty and doesn´t work at all. I´m removing the old chrome with my new chrome-stripper (links attached below). After sanding and polishing the case, it´s ready for a new chrome-plating. But I need to add a layer of nickel before. The glass will be polished and the movement cleaned. The rusty movement-parts getting a manual polish by hand. The hour-hand is broken at the arbor but luckily it still works fine and I am able to keep the original one. I´m polishing the hands and re-blue them with my new flame-bluing-kit (links attached below again). There is not much I can do about the dial, a little cleaning of the radium contamina
