You're going to have to go through Breitling. Either contact BUSA in CT or your local AD. Dials are not going to be available outside of official channels and while resoldering the feet may be feasible it is going to require disassembly and servicing. The watch also needs inspecting to see if any other damage has occurred.

resoldering the feet obviously would be the cheaper fix just not sure who to use to fix it cause I'm sure busa wants to sell a "new" dial vs resolder along with a overhaul?

I wouldn't trust anyone except Breitling to do it anyway. Who knows what else is gong on as a result of whatever damaged the dial, or as a result of the feet floating around the movement.
