I have done a few 'fixes' on this type of problem and I used a short section of another case tube slipped over the 'too small' case tube and then press the assembly into the case after making sure the hole in the case will accept the case tube combo. Sometimes you have to enlarge the hole in the case and it is a good idea to put Loctite on the tubes.

I have had good luck with this repair because with the tube being pressed into the case there is no problem with adhesives having to take up space.

 

Clark's has Ebel/Cartier case tubes with gaskets for $13.50 and the end of the tube that goes into the case is 1.52mm so a spacer would not be too hard to find (Ebel made a lot of Cartier watches).

With a large od case tube, finding another case tube to make the spacer might be a problem.
