  1. Anyone ordered anything recently to EU? I want to order to Austria and wonder if there are any customs issues. Previously, I was ordering through the UK, but now after brexit I am not sure what should I do. Please advise about your experience. Thank you!

    DW 6264.

    Hi guys, The crown and tube on my DW daytona is broken, It is one of those cases when DW's tube was accepting the gen crown but with some friction and difficulties and now it is derailed and does not close anymore. Could you tell me what is the correct crown + tube size I should order and where ? Will an old DJ36 crown tube fit? Also, do you know how to make these pushers not to stick out so much, will they be shorter if I replace DW pushers with Ofrei pushers? what is the solution here? Thank you!
  5. Thank you alligoat, I would rather buy from Cousins cause Im in the EU, I checked their website they seem to have it but I am not sure which model I should get. maybe this: P46190 ? https://www.cousinsuk.com/product/classical-screw-in-ss
  6. Looking to do some work on 6263 please help finding the guy with the tools, thank you.
  7. hi Sputim, what is a source of VN dials? where can I find one?
  8. To all vintage daytona wizards, please help me to make improvements to this watch. The built: DW case. V72, vietnam dial. gen plexi gen crown Overall I am happy except seeing these pushers stick out so much. Those of you who worked with DW cases, what are my options here if any? Installing screw inn pushers I was told by a watchsmith not possible (can't recall the reason). Replacing these pushers with a better aftermarket ones? any experience with that? where to get a set? and most importantly will this do the trick? anyone who can pull this off in the EU? Many thanks.
  9. Hi Freddy, 

    Could you be so kind to help me our with my quest? I am looking to improve my daytona, it is a DW build with V72. gen plexi and crown. vietnam dial. 

    What bothers me are the pushers, they stick out too much, especially the upper one. The watchmaker has expected the watch and told me that the screw inn pushers cannot be installed ( no idea why  something about not enough trhead or too big holes ). I am thinking either install screw inn pushers and bigger crown or replace DW pushers with a better aftermarket ones? In your experience what is better and who can pull this off? I am located in the EU ( Austria ). Many thanks for your help!  Hagan

  10. Thank you Nanuq! :))) for your offer, that would be as precise as it gets. I just put the black one over the steel bezel for comparison. Frankly, the black bezel calls for screw pushers and a bigger crown. There is also a sort of elegance in keeping it as is with the steel bezel. what bugs me is that DW pushers stick out too much. SSTEEL tried to work his magic and replace the pushers but there was not enough thread to install them. Installing the black bezel however, covers the pushers optically, another option is to replace the whole case, but go and try to find a decent case these days for a reasonable price!
  11. Greetings Gentlemen, Opinion needed, black bezel or not? What is your take, thank you very much.
  12. Gentlemen, Greetings from Austria, need someone here to fix a watch and do some mods. Who knows anyone in Austria of Germany? Thank you in advance. Hagan
