    I picked this one up recently and need some help. The 4:00 marker is wrong. What about 12:00? Heck, are any of them correct? Never seen this one. Where can I find these parts?? Seamaster Chronometer 1.jpg Seamaster Chronometer 2.jpg

    Nothing wrong with the the 4h marker, it's the 8h and 12h ones are completely wrong as in foreign to the watch. The 6h is a bit crooked also. These markers are common on similar Seamasters of the period so a donner watch/dial is a possibility. Same chronometre dial is pretty rare to come by these days.

    Sorry. I meant 8:00. Does anyone have a pic of the correct 12:00?

    12:00 should simply be a square like the others?

    Well then it's gonna be tough. At least it's not as rare as the whole chronometre dial since I'm sure they are available on non-chronometre dials. Not that it's readily available, but it's a possibility.

    Looking for new dial for the early 50s chronometers?? ::screwloose::
    Those are examples to say that they exist out there. Don't look for the whole dial, just a few markers of the same type only, maybe on a throw-away dial or similar. Luck and patience, my man.

    You'd be surprised on the NOS stuff found at Ofrei, Julesborel, etc.

    Not for the less common ones and you have a very uncommon piece.
