    Medico, then DIBS!

    As a doc, too, I just MUST have one... and a dent won't do!

    Medico was always an option from the factory... or if not from the factory then from the dealer. Go medico. Pulsation scales are very cool. Especially on the wrist of a medico.

    Edit: I'd be remiss if I didn't use this opportunity to reassert my DIBS on your pulsation bezel waterproof Tri-Compax. The bezel or the watch in toto. Either way. Whenever you're ready.

    SInce it seems Medico was an original option, that is the one I would choose.

    I like the Uni better, but the dent just kills it for me.

    The dent wouldn't just bother your brain cells. It will kill some of them over time!

    Thanks all for your answers. Didn't realize we have a whole medical staff on here.

    A few of you asked about authenticity. It being UG, it is possible that multiple dials were used for this case reference. H0wever, there is overwhelming evidence to show that the Uni-Compax dial is correct for this case reference - 10 of 14 available examples have this dial. Of the remainder, 2 of 14 are Medico-Compaxes, both with the same dial which is different from this one. Visual reasearch from internet examples, so I cannot guarantee that all of the watch pictures represent separate pieces but I checked carefully and I believe they are. Thus, there is reason to believe that these came as Medico-Compaxes, but probably not with this dial.

    The Uni dial is the right thing to do Lou, even with the dent. The crystal should obscure it a little, don't you think?:unsure:
    It is a nice dial otherwise.

    I would wait and try to get a better Uni-Compax dial, because it is definetely correct for this bezel & ref. 124116 (Sala p.206).
    But don`t like this special one, not only because of the dent, but also because of the outside weird mixture of the tachy & telemetre scale, somehow strange? Never seen before, not in Sala not anywhere else.

    And on the other hand I have not seen a Medico fitted with this special bezel?

    Well, what I have seen or not may be not the ultimate decision making tool :)

    In fact that weird mixture is correct (thanks to all whose pics I'm using)
