Jetpac 0 Posted September 19, 2018 I have a quartz Tissot PR50 titanium with a white/silver sunburst dial that is about 15 years old now. To my dismay when i was wearing it i looked down and the dial had spun.. I can only assume the feet on the back of the dial have snapped. Is there any way to source a new dial (other than looking for a second-hand watch to cannibalise?) the watch has sentimental value. Tissot customer services are saying a minimum of £175 which is the same cost as the watch really so i dont really want to go this route... Any other options?

gmchris 68 Posted September 20, 2018 I'm no expert but I have used double sided tape in the past as a 'temporary' fix Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Luxuracer 14 Posted September 20, 2018 Is there any damage to the dial front face? Since it is a quartz, it's not difficult to line up and re-secure the dial. If there isn't any visible damage to the dial, any watch repair shop can fit that for you. Post some pictures would help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nope no damage to the front, it is just assumed that the feet have snapped behind the dial. I was told that if the feet had gone then it would be kaput and need a replacement? (i mean i like tge way watches look, i dont know about the insides too much!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If the feet are broken off the dial, they can be reattached. Many modders have modified dial feet to fit different movements. You can even purchase new dial feet. Or you can secure the dial to the movement using 3M double sided tape. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just need to find a watchmaker somewhere in the uk that will do it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
