I have a memovox with a discolored dial and am interested in replacing the face versus having the face painted (I heard this greatly devalues the watch) I found a new old stock alarm memovox dial for sale and wondered if this was a good option instead of painting The dial is red and copper colors and beautiful but not shure of its authenticity or if it will fit my model any help would be greatly appreciated This is the link Here is the face interested in
Here is my memovox |

Dial is genuine but completely wrong for your model. |

Will it fit or how would you best suggest I deal with the blue oxidation/discoloration on the outermost of the dial face |

Even refinishing is preferable to installing an incorrect dial.... fit or not. Do you have a larger picture of your watch. My poor strained watchmaker eyes can't make out much detail from that tiny picture. It looks like a common dial style that may be available in a NOS dial. Greg |

Here are some larger pictures and I'm very interested in replacing the dial if you can give me some specific instructions on where to purchase or where to send to get it refinished I would be very appreciative

I understand this is a common dial so where can I purchase a newer looking dial or at least where is a reputal place to get the dial refinished/painted |
