To: sales@caigauge.comSubject: Spares for classic gauges
Could you let me know how I could obtain replacement parts for some 1959 British Jaeger (Smiths) gauges - two 4" and several 2" dials?

I would need the chrome bezels (full V not half V) and some glasses (plus seals). Also do you stock the knurled retaining nuts? I have one gauge that has the wrong bezel shape - do you know if I can remove this and replace with a full V bezel? Finally, the Rev counter needs fixing - do you have a recommended supplier for this?
