If you do decide to get your Sentinel Radio's tuning dial replaced, whatever you do, DO NOT go through a company called Radio Daze to get your dial replicated/replaced, because I had an old Stromberg Carlson AM/SW/Phono Radio from about 1946 that my tuning dial which was glass with reverse painted graphics that got busted when I was in the middle of restoring the radio. And I tried going through them to get a new dial for my radio and they did nothing but give me the full runaround and kept promising me that they would make me a dial once they got in a piece of equipment they supposedly needed to use to make glass dials and they gave me a timeline of about 2 weeks for the equipment to get in and that they would be able to get to work on my dial, well 2 weeks ended up turning into 2 months and they still said that they were supposedly waiting on their equipment to arrive and so finally I told them that if you aren't going to be able to stick with your promised timeline schedule then I'm not going to do business with you anymore because its rediculous to be told initially only two weeks and then it end up being more like 2+months or more and you still aren't any closer to getting your equipment than you were in the beginning.
So as my story illustrates, they aren't worth your business because they're more than likely going to make up excuses as to why they can't make your dial and then stick you with what seems like fairly reasonable timelines for when they can get your tuning dial made which will then turn into a long drawn out timeline with no signs of you ever getting your dial made. I'd recommend you trying some of the other radio parts replication firms, but not Radio Daze.
Hope this info helps.
