As I recall, hands should just pull off--although there is a slim possibility that unscrews.. Don't know what year I might have to check but if no one comes back with other suggestions, will look tomorrow. As to repair, once that other piece is off I think I would straighten the bent part and use epoxy rather than superglue to hold things. Also, IIRC the plastic is held on mostly by that center metal piece which I think has 4 or 5 tabs which go thru slots in the plastic. Once that is off, you should be able to clean things nicely. Will be interesting to see how much your face has faded once the real color is revealed under the center. A friends 53 Clipper I cleaned and refinished the instruments on had a surprising color under.
