I am trying to finish the restoration of my dads 1959 GMT
the problem is the watch went back to Switzerland on a regular basis due to failure and they replaced way too many parts
my dad passed in the late 70's and the watch was stored for a while
my brother and I have taken care of finding the right parts and keeping it up
the original dial was refinished in the 80's but the font was never correct for a '59
does anyone know where I might find a dial that is if refinished, and done correctly, not imagining finding a NOS but I found a NOS barrel bridge oddly
the watch has had a horrible service record and a barrel bridge is an odd thing to fail
but hoping to finish this with a correct dial
thanks in advance
