I use homage/parnis/marina militare sandwich dials. They go for 5-10 usd each shipped.

Carefully separate the two layers with a blade, scrape off the lume and eventually make the plate a bit thinner by rubbing it on sandpaper.

they are too thin. You will have issues unless you build up to the correct thickness. It is critical that the dial plate is held tight against the dial recess under the rehaut. 

 

The best option is a noob or h factory sandwich dial backplate.
