Yes the 1675/3s were gilt printed, not true gilt. The brass of the dial did not provide the gold lettering. The writing was screen printed with gold paint, and the indices/nipples and coronet were applied pieces of metal. I'd say you are correct with Tudor being pad printed as well, but I'm not sure about the chapter ring. The chapter rings and the writing look like a different application on most, so perhaps the ring was true gilt... and the writing was printed. It could also be they were printed at different parts in the process. I think it's safe to say the lettering is pad printed though.

So here is a follow on. (I have not seen a 1675(3/8) Rootbeer/Nipple in person). Those were "Printed" Gilt correct, as are all the later/current Two-Tone models. "Relief" stopped in the mid-60's all together? Jumping over to Tudor. Were those early 7922, 7923 Relief or Printed. (Again never saw one in person) But I have always been under the impression Tudor was always Pad-Printed pseudo-Gilt. ????

I had caught rumbling of Yuki shuttering in 2023 and the aforementioned yukiwatch.com domain was 404'd. However, Yuki does appear 'back' under the s-timeasia domain and regained control over yukiwatch domain. The Ruby "alternative" site however seems sketchy. It feels like it is running on someones old Pentium in a closet somewhere. LOL. I am always skeptical of copy-cats, etc. The fact Ruby's original site is still accessible but not "Login-able" nor responding to emails gives me pause, especially on the new copy-cat site. 🤷‍♂️

The exception to this is the 16800 Sub, which 1st appeared with a matte dial in 1979. The 16800's dial was changed to gloss in the mid 1980s I believe.

Custom Omega

Gen will fit.

I believe it is a DG movement.

The lever where the blue arrow is pointing corrects the beat error. Move in or out to correct. Barely move when you do. It will also speed up or slow down the seconds a day setting. Once the error is set, move the lever the green arrow points to. Again, very small movements.

.

That sounds dead accurate. The 1675 GMTs were gilt until 1966, possibly '67, but the switch to matte printed dials was definitely in 1967. It would make sense if the switch was company wide vs. a general transition by model.

Do some guy tested 14060? https://vintagewatchesmq.com/minhquy/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=2237&category_id=96&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=1 Inviato dal mio iPhone utilizzando Tapatalk

Yuki's site is still active. You heard he was retiring? https://www.yukiwatch.com/ETA*Submariner-5513-gloss-dial-p595789838

DD = Dangdong and are now considered the best option. SH less quality. Noob is usually poor quality and less compatible with Gen parts. That is my experience with their 32xx movements anyways. I'll defer to Freddy333 w/r/t the 4130. Here is a good comparison of the 3xxx's which I am guessing translates to 41xx to some degree:

Yep, sites are still online in both Ruby/Minh's cases, but zero comm's or order fulfillment's. 🤷‍♂️

Thanks [emoji120] and YES [emoji16] "depth gilt" ... "real gilt" [emoji848] I guess the best to describe those specific dials would be "negative-relief gilt" as the gilt parts are recessed from the black coat ... but English is not my native language so maybe I'm not certain ... mine got 2 black coats over the polished copper dial plate then 1 white coat for the markers ... finish is 3 coats of nitrocellulosic varnish like they used in the 60ies ... lume is low green glow or just dead lume reactive to UV light Envoyé de mon moto g(9) power en utilisant Tapatalk

so what is the difference between DD4131 and SH 4131 and i guess Noob 4131

No idea on any Vietnam crackdowns, but MQ's site is still online.

Anyone know if there has been similar crack downs with the trusted parts suppliers? Another end-of-an-era??? -Ruby, site login disabled and “suspect” replacement site— well…seems suspect. -MinhQ , unresponsive as well. -Yuki retired. -Phong still up/around from US, but selection is hit or miss and $$$$.

Nice. Did you make those? I reached out to MQ/Minh who seems to list/differentiate print gilt from ‘depth’ gilt. Assuming by depth they mean ‘relief/real’.
