Morning everyone, I have the following Seiko 7009A watch with a huge amount of rust damage:

I took this on as a personal challenge, I have a question regarding the dial feet retaining screws, these are the eccentric screw type:

One of these feet has rusted and crumbled away to nothing, leaving a hole where it should be. Anyone have any experience on how to replace these? I have a donor movement so I can find the part, but need help/advice on how to install it. Or is there another method I can use to secure the dial?

Dial dots etc will not work as they will fowl the day/date discs.
