    I recentely bought a Speedmaster reduced (175.0032) cal 1140 in yellow gold that I want to place a black dial in. According to different charts of this modell it states that it was sold with a black dial but I can't find any pics of that configuration.

    Can anyone please confirm that it was sold with a black dial.


    Thanks!

    I've never seen it with a black/gold combination, however you need to keep in mind that this watch was made in an EXTREMELY large number of variants, some were regional or country specific, some were jeweler specific in Japan and Italy, and I can't say it wasn't for sure.

    If you just want a black dial, that's easy enough to manage. The dial for Cal 1141/1143 is here: http://www.ofrei.com/page1394.html

    Now as far as I understand, its just a decorated and lightly modified version of the 1140, so it should be a straight swap, but as always, consult your watchmaker before purchasing.
