1964 Air King. Ref 5500. Cal 1530, yes 1530. I want to redial this to an Explorer I, but since it is a 1530 the dial should be a labeled "Super Precision," I believe

Yuki has one labeled as a "Super Precision," but says it is for a Cal 1520. It is a 27mm dial, feet locations at 30 & 57 min. Would this 1520 work??

Any ideas on where to look? Yuki has other dials Explorer I dials for the 1530. however the feet locations are varied and confusing.

Any help of any kind greatly appreciated!!

redial is a eufamism for fake dial, the discussion of fakes is not allowed on this board.

I thought "redial" was just a replacement of the original dial...?

The seller you refer to is well known for selling fake Rolex parts, if thats the route you want to take then that of course is your descision. This forum has quite strict rules about discussing fake watches and parts so there is a risk that this thread gets zapped. If you think it's unfair of lame then I suggest you take it up with the mods
