Dave,
I have used a modern 0-5 gauge used for dinghies grafted into an original case with a reproduction face.
Also some time back won a later Smiths 0-5 in an auction that had the same fixing as an original case,everybody missed it because it was labelled as a oil gauge.
The difficulty with 0-10 gauges is getting the sweep correct to suit the face.
