Looking good Michael. A grand job. -

I'd try to cut one from thin brass sheet? That's readily available and easy to work. Cut a strip with the length just less than the original part circumference, wide enough to include the tabs, then use a nibbler to cut the excess away between the tab positions. (This type of thing, if you've not seen them) https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/256437891452 -

Hello and welcome from Leeds. No such thing as a stupid question. Find something to practice on before starting the Vertex. -
I'm looking for the movement spacer ring for a Vertex 1944 military 'dirty dozen'. Ideally, I'd like to buy an original, although that may prove difficult. So, anyone with anything similar or just the correct sizings, would suffice for now. Alternatively, is there anyone that may be able to machine one (preffered) ? Or maybe even the dreaded 3D printing ? -

Fashion watch casebacks are extremely tight with no gap for a knife to enter. A razor blade is the only tool that gets me in with a sharp ping as the back releases. Personally i wouldn’t modify, as it is you can remove and replace though somewhat difficult , with a mod it may not stay on. It could very well be a sharp edge that keeps it in place , a light rub might take away that edge ? It wouldn’t be worth that risk to me, just how accurate is a drill and the chuck, its not the accuracy of a lathe .
