Are seiko 7009 dials interchangeable with 7s26 dials?

I've received a vintage scrap seiko 7009 watch. While the dial is in good condition, the movement is corroded. Based on how worn it is. I would like to change a movement for the watch. So I want to know if the 7009 dial can be fitted into 7s26 movement since most available 7s26 movements are in better condition.

Yes. 7009 is the predecessor to 7S / 4R / 6R and it exchanges mechanically.

i seem to remember swapping some seiko stuff around. depending on the case and stem position   the dial , while fitting the movement might be misaligned in relation to the case.

did it fit? are the day/date discs from a 7009 fit on a 7s26?

I've got a 7s26 dial on a 7009a on my wrist right now. They are perfectly interchangeable. 

 

In regards to day / date discs I'd doubt it. Looking at the service manuals they are different part numbers and the date/day combination for 7s26 will change based on the case used, so likely not compatible with the 7009a

    • Hello, looking forward to participating on the forum here! I will mostly be listening and asking questions since I am an amateur hobbyist. I have most of the beginner hand tools and a Timegrapher. The extent of my tinkering consists of a successful Seiko 7S26 to NH36 movement swap inside an all original 1997 SKX007, along with a bunch of battery changes for friends and family. I have yet to tackle full disassembly and cleaning. Right now, I don't really have the budget or time to invest in a cleaning setup (even manual cleaning), but hopefully soon! I joined because I recently purchased a mechanical Timex Camper from 1994, and my searches for information regarding servicing and swapping out these Timex mechanical movements consistently led me to Watch Repair Talk. There is also a wealth of knowledge here about dial design, another area of interest for me. My other hobbies includes leather working (mostly small pieces, shoes eventually), crochet, sewing (would love to make clothing), design (especially type design), home espresso, cocktails, and tennis. I want to buy a film camera, but I don't need yet another expensive hobby involving last-century technology. Yes, I have ADHD.
