Hi.
As can be seen in the pictures this task is near on impossible without being totally flexible.
The glass is held in place by two thin brackets that are arranged between the glass and dial then the dial is secured by angled brackets with two screws on each.
One screw is impossible to do with normal tools.
In this case I decided to to attach a thin layer of double sided tape to keep the glass firmly in position on the front panel. This at least enabled me to free up one of my hands. Eventually I got everything lined up and the top screws in place. On turning the set round I saw that the bandspread pointer had been bent.
After another stripdown I got a result to only find the spacer plates are different on the left to the right hand side.
I gave up and have had a few wines to drown my sorrows. Perhaps I'll strip it all down tomorrow and try again....... or I'll fire it in the bucket
