    Hello!

    Some time ago I bought a lone case and its dial for a Seamaster 2849: the watch took a bath while fairly new probably, because the dial has some light spotting all over (mostly visible in macro, in real life it does not bothers me), but the case is the sharpest/cleanest I have seen. Still has the original low profile plexi, not even scratched. A shame to let it rot in a drawer, so I took some action.

    After some months I finally found a good 503 movement (with a seamaster redial), some case clamps and a handset. All good! I had a surprise with the movement upon receiving it: it has a roulette wheel! (black and red numbers) I only saw one in the forum, a picture of a dealer's watch.

    It sure looks cool, I assume it is correct to mount it on a steel 2849-1? Can somebody tell me more?
