Rolex Bubbleback Mercedes Hands

[AndrewPK]

I am looking for Mercedes hands For my Bubbleback 5011. The watch has a black California dial, Diameter of the watch 32mm.
Alternatively could I use also the hands from another Rolex model of the same or similar size?

you should be able to use any mercedes hands from any bubbleback - as the movement was more or less the same (at least as far as hand sizes)

The problem with a black dial...is finding gold or silver hands depending on the text. Much more difficult. They can be plated. The are different pipe sizes for sweep seconds vs. sub seconds and the 10.5 H hands have different sizes and also the minutes hand is shorter...on most models..and longer on things like Army and Athlete. If it's the same shape case as yours...and the same seconds configuration they all fit...2940, 5050, 5015, 3133, 3131 etc.
