Lady's Presidents Model 6917 Service needed

Deal All.
I have an older Lady's Presidents Model 6917.
There is not a local watch shop that wants to service this watch, including the Rolex dealer. They sent it to Dallas service center for me.

The Rolex Dallas center wanted $ 3,200 "for needed repairs" with all new hands, dial, glass, crown, Bezel and so on and suggested an additional $ 8800 for a new bracelet and buckle from the phone call I received from the Rolex dealer. So, no to that.

Main "spring and bar" are bad, gears, seals, bad due to water damage. The watch runs about 25-30 minutes fast every 24 hrs.

All I would like to do is get it running as good as it can as spending while spending as less as possible. The dial needs replaced or refinished (whichever cost less - aftermarket dial in champagne or other finish is fine).

I am not apposed to convert it to an aftermarket quartz movement with a new or refinished dial.
Any help is gratefully appreciated.

Thank you,
Col. Fletcher
