Hi OF
I m looking for the case to fit the dial which is 29.2 mm in diameter. 2577 and 2767 don't fit, may be jumbo reference , 36 mm. Anyone has any idea. Need advice !
Best,

Can you try a little harder. It would help if you showed the dial, just the diameter isn't much help. At least give us a hint. Is it a Seamaster? Automatic? Tritium?

Dials don't fit cases, they fit calibers and the combo fits a case.

It's easier to first identify your caliber(s) and work from there.

Dial feet positions could help, perhaps.

It's cal 352, not seamaster. I don't want to push too hard and could damage the dial. I can see the dial won't sit all the way in. Would the jumbo reference help ?

Hi
If you want additional help .... please post pic of the dial ... if not then might as well stop asking for help.

Hi Barclay

You posted last night , having
Pics of the dial and caliber can help . No need to be nasty. You keep asking for help without all the info that the collective minds here could use to come up with hypotheses…

I bet I can answer your question pretty easily with photos . I have been collecting Seamaster for over 30 years.

I am not in a rush , A fyi just because it’s does not say Seamaster on the dial it could still be for a Seamaster like case ref 2521 …which is a jumbo size.


Will wait for your posts.

Hi
I was posted late last night. I didn't take pics. I didn't expect OF reply so quick. I received message this morning but I was on my way to work. That is the reason I didn't up load pics. I m not nasty. Some time need give ppl time to reply. We need to work and can not reply right the way. Anyway, as you mention that 2521 is 35.6 mm may fit the dial. I will post the dial and movement tonight. Thanks for your help

Here are some pictures. It is 1950 cal 352.
Dial and movement not all the way into the case(2577). May need jumbo case(36mm).I think I need 2494, 2657 or 2521.

My guess would be that it came from a melted 14311.

2657 is a small second ref. 2494 is center second but I’m not aware of cal 352 versions without Seamaster writing in them (happy to be proven wrong though).

@X350 XJR s guess might well be a good one I think, but finding a spare case of that reference will be… difficult.

Don’t forget all the steel and gold capped versions of the above case references. Omega’s database is far from complete.
