Welcome, and yes, I bought a similar little bit well worn or scruffy (needed new period bracelet, endlinks, non-service hard edged plexi, small non service crown, tube, period insert, full major service) 1680 for £5,600 last month, and a scruffy 1675 for 6,400.
Both will probably need therefore £2.5 to 4k spent on them each.
I gave my opinion as what you should insure it for being say £12,000, (eg what you might have to pay to a plate glass retailer if you need to replace a 1979 Mk1 with some paperwork) when you have done the work, after a insurance claim is accepted, post incident.
Also all insurers (I ran an insurance co.) won't want to see it in the flesh so to speak, to confirm an appraisal or your estimate, before you insure it btw.
