Not to salt the wound, but when I had my Paul Newman refurbished, they did the following:
Serviced the movement, replaced the (acrylic) crystal and crown, replaced the markers, refinished the dial, and polished the case and bracelet. This was 2012 at an AD and was $700 + shipping both ways.
While mine is not a solid gold presidential (or gold plated for that matter), it is much more rare than yours and parts are much harder to find.
