Seamaster De Villie Dial

Hello,

I’ve recently bought a Cal 711 movement in impulse on eBay with the thought that I would put in a case I had with a movement that I have an issue with however due to it being an impulse and bidding at the last minute I didn’t realise it wouldn’t fit

I appreciate this may be frowned upon with it not being totally genuine but I have since bought a NOS 165.007 case for it to go into, the dial on the movement is in nice shape however it is too big for the case (29.5mm dial and 28.5mm opening in the case) and therefore I need another dial,

Does anyone have a dial, no date window to fit this, at this moment I’m not too fussed if it’s even for a cal 711 as I may just remove the jugs and attach like Tissot do with self adhesive pads in the interim until I source a suitable dial so I can get a little enjoyment out of my slightly expensive impulse,

It’s a bit of a shame as the movement and dial are on nice order and keeps good time and the case is in great shape too so I would like to get a little use out of it for now,

I also need a set of hands to suit but I would hope that these shouldn’t be too difficult to source,

Many thanks
Matty

Hello.

Are you sure the bezel does not pop up?

Possibly but normally if they are front loading they don’t have a screw back, or at least to my knowledge?

Some do. Worth trying.
