Hi,
I see nothing wrong putting a correct period dial for this watch, as long as you disclose it if you're reselling it one day. For me it would even not affect the value if the dial is one that was put on this model.
You should also change the hands so that they match the dial.
Now, based on my experience, round dials for R17.8 are not easy to find, especially in good condition.
