Well i thought id found flat ceramic inserts but it turns out there is a slight taper so no good for our purposes. But i did contact the okokadolo guy in the link and asked about the aluminium and bakelite inserts he does and asked for some pics and gave him the original dimensions Frank_NRW used. Lets see what he sends over.

I got both. I used the curved one. The flat one is a bit dull, the epoxy of the curved one make it more shiny. There is also an hairline gap between the bezel and the insert. The San Martin I have with an orange bezel is a better fit. I would be tempted to "epoxy" the gap, but then it would become difficult to remove the insert.
The one in your pic looks ok. Id like to see a wristy of your San Martin as im after one of those. I think the bezel on that makes it for me.
Amazing, what would a dial like this do to a mans funds?Here’s my steeldive with India Facebook guy dial. I just bought another from AliX and will be looking for a cool dial for it.
That looks great! Did you source the dial and if so can you tell me what the dial size is on the San Martin.
That's good to know. I love that San Martin for that bezel insert and the high beat movement and the fact it uses a 32mm dial as I will have a few dials in the next few weeks.
