Assuming you’re here with good intentions, make no mistake, all the parts bar the movement on the SM120 and SM300’s they’re selling are fake including the cases.
SM120 dials don’t come up very often. If you’re looking for one it might be easier to try and find a whole watch that’s missing the bezel and buy that for the dial. The bezels are virtually unobtainium so any SM120 missing it’s bezel is worth less than half of a full watxh.

I don’t understand why you guys are questioning my intentions here, anyways thanks for the info, unfortunately I looked everywhere and couldn’t find any, that’s the only reason I came here because again that was the only store that had what I needed.

For vintage watches you often won't find the parts immediately available. It's a case of setting up saved searches on places like ebay and constantly checking the parts for sale areas of forums like this one.

Patience, and take your time!
And study during the hunt, and take your time!
Don't argue with senior members here, they have lots of solid knowledge (maybe a short fuse sometimes....😉),
learn the "ropes" here, and take your time!




Did I write - take your time.....?

I'm surprised that link was left in the original message. I had the impression that it wasn't allowed.

Removed the link to their site since we don’t want to promote them
