Tickntock,

I would think that any dial refinisher worth his or her salt should be able to re-do the numerals on your gold dial. I have had success in the past in having these done. If you are not in the trade of watch repairing, it might be best to turn the job over to someone who specializes in antique watches and who would have connections with a good finisher or two.

Next time you go to Seattle, stop at Kirk Dial they are in the 4th.&Pike bldg. downtown. Dial refinishing is what they do.

Thanks for your reesponses! This dial is larger than 18 size; I sent xerox copies to several commercial dial refinishers but they didn't have lasarge enough templates. Perhaps I need an "artist" who can do it by hand. JIm<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
