Dial feet are at 1 and between 7 & 8. Same as Venus 178 I'm pretty sure. Diameter is 30mm.

Do you know where the dial feet are, that might help, also the size.

we discussed a piece some months ago that finally sold last week, seems to be this dial in a 765 or 810 case and AVI hands ?

The Top Time and 765's use a dial that's curved at the edges. This one appears flat which would suggest the use of an inner bezel.

I think that it's correct for a 178 - but can't figure out which model.

To me it looks the most like a 7652 except the big Copilot still has the 15 minute register instead of the 30. Maybe a variation for LIP.

Possible, it's only a single gear wheel change.
