How do you figure out what bezel might fit on a different watch?

So, I've got this Heimdallr that's homaging the Citizen Promaster. I want to heavily modify it, and one of the things I want to change is the bezel in...

Wore my Seagull 1963 on a leather strap to my nephews wedding.

I've got that same watch! Sapphire crystal, ceramic bezel, reliable quartz movement, stainless steel case and bracelet with solid links and endlinks, and for well under $100. It's not perfect, of course. Edge of the clasp has some sharp corners and edges, I've scratched myself pretty good a couple times, and there's a spot of white paint on one of the hands, but it isn't lume. But overall, really good watch!

Mako Gang! I've got a V3 Titanium, great watch!

I like the bezel on this, with pulsometer for the first quarter and speed after that. My chronograph is just speed, and I don't have much need to clock speeds up to Mach 3!

Closest I have is a JDM Seiko that has the English and Kanji. Tuesday in Japanese looks like boobs, so that's cool. Yes, I'm a50 year old man-child.

I'm glad you like it since it's your watch. For the life of me, I don't understand the popularity of the Wimbledon dial. Hits all the wrong notes in my brain.
