Escutcheon Question For RON Please
#1

Ron,
I would like you to verify for me if you can that in the picture gallery phorum the model 40-160 and the 40-165 use the same dial and pushbutton escutcheon.
At least that is the way I read it, since it states that the two cabinets are identical.

There is a member here looking for the escutcheons for his 40-160 and I have a set from an almost totally disintegrated 40-165.
Thanks,
Gene

I just looked...both sets use bezel 27-4842. So...both use the same escutcheon. However, they use different dial scales. Model 40-160 is a two band set while the 40-165 has three bands.

Thanks very much for your help Ron!

That was a lucky break, since those are made out of a similar plastic to the 41-280s etc I figured the the odds would be against finding a good one.
Regards
Arran
