The seller that used to list those and vintage dials disappeared quite a while ago. gans_antique I believe it was. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I honestly thought I'd seen them recently but maybe was longer than I thought Phong does sell individual parts not just complete watches so you could just buy the bezel http://www.jewelryandwatch.com/contents/en-us/d184.html still pricey at $650 but will make the build a lot cheaper than going for his ready made watch at $6500 (without a bracelet) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At one point gans had the bezel and insert for $250. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good find, yeah yuki definitely looks like the way to go if you really wanna do a bakelite build still not cheap though at $250 http://www.yukiwatch.net/Early-No-Guard-GMT-Master-6542-Bakelite-Acrylic-bezel-insert-p30770572 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
