Hi guys

I'm currently servicing a 166.020 for a friend who asked me to sell it for him. The funny story is that his father bought it in Saigon in 1968 and he still has the original invoice. When he and his family came to France after the Viet Nam war they took what they could with us among which this watch.
My question is. The original dial was damaged during a previous service by some uncautious watchmaker whoscratched the dial when removing the hands.
I have in stock a Seamaster Deville dial in really goof condition but there's a slight variation in the shape of the onyx markers. Would you replace it or leave it as it is?

cheers

 

I'd leave it be due to the "missing" tritium on the possible replacement.

 

Hi mate

Interesting point of view. The weird thing is that this replacement dial goes with luminous hands. I can't find on what model it could be. I'm rather sure it was from a gold watch that was melted.
