    Hi,

    I´m looking for an original insert for a 1963 Semaster 300.

    Please let me know what you guys have.

    Thanks.

    So you need a bezel? The insert cannot be removed in one piece.

    you either buy a completely new bezel with original "insert" (unobtanium) or you can send your existing bezel to Italy and have an "insert" applied to it, takes about a year.

    I wouldn't call it an insert though, as its not insertable.

    Thanks for the feedback. I thought that a new/used insert could be installed into the bezel. This is how the watch looks now:

    The material inset into the bezel is paper thin and prone to flaking apart by just looking at it. Yours is completely gone obviously so you should follow cajun’s advice and message Aldo about a restoration job.

    I have not heard back from Aldo despite a couple messages over the past few months. Maybe one day...

    Nice looking watch OP!
