Thank you @Cupcakes
This is it today after the correct seatpost and stem arrived.
Still unsure on the silver headset, I like the idea of a silver clamp if I were to keep it though!
Still waiting on the correct saddle to see the build in full glory but I agree with everything you said! Shifters were way to low, I raised them up but now after adding a steeper angled stem I think I need to do it again.
Best, C

Ah mate that's looking really good, agree the shifters need to move up the bars. Still think the headset and cable stops work well with the frame graphics but the black shim I know your after would probably work better with that seatpost. Are they aftermarket pad holders? Black or O.G Ultegra grey would look better IMO. Prefer all black over gum walls on this but maybe a gold chain?

As has been said the paint on that frame is a lovely colour.
If it were mine and I planned to keep the silver CK headset, the next tasks would be silver seat clamp (Thomson?) and de-graphic the seat post and stem if possible. I think the downtube cable stops look fine as is.
I'd also bring the shifters up the bars a fair bit, but that is based on aesthetics and my own bike fit. If it works for you as is, all good.
