Cheers mates,

During the weekend I got this from an uncle in my family, he had bought this new in the seventies in Rotterdam.

I had it apart right away ......And my first question is what todo about the dial? 

Beacuse there are like 5 very smal spots that have some sorts of reaction with the surface of the dial. When I gentley tried to scrape it of, I got down to the layer under the colour.

My question is or somebody can recomend where to get some paint that I can use for this?  When I was a kid we used to have some paint from a company called Humbrol, some one used that befor??

Thanks....    :-)

Nothing you can do will salvage a dial with the damage you described (pics don't show it)

You will need to replace dial.

I will take a photo and show you. I will replace it if you can tell me where to get a new original dial....

Best bet is to contact Spencer Klein in America or Stefan aka Schillachi61 on eBay or Adrian at Vintage Times Australia.

Try also the watchcollector on ebay. I've seen listed the same dial and color once in a while.

Only aftermarkets not genuine ones.

Well, yes, I suppose...I've found some "fakes" coming from his stock too...Have you notice some Seiko watches he lists as "like a " and a question mark?
