Thanks ~Freddy Ive already got J & W making me a 6263 they are going source me a V72 movement the whole deal is being built by them with genuine parts, The end cost is $6500.00 (toppy i know) But bear in mind the real deal is $50.000.00 on E~bay and im not planning to sell it, as it will have no box and papers.
It will be a good example that I can 'smoke' around town for the rest of my life . If it turns out good I will get them to 'Frank' me a 6265 as well.
Thanks for the Tip . I'd Never heard of J and W before you advised me . "I owe you one matey" (I mean a pat on the back, not a watch hehehe) I know this sounds painful but you know the meagre strap that goes with these little vintage Daytona's. Well with a little careful tooling or filing on the end link (collar) of a standard Oyster strap and you can make the bigger strap fit without it looking like the thin example they came with. Ive done one and it looks good. I even did it with a newer 'Rolesor' strap even though its not the strap for that watch I dont mind. its a strong sturdy (non Rattler).
