I'm more of a rolex guy but trying to get a few for franken pams. It doesn't seem that there are that many, but how difficult would it be to build a franken pam 104 with a gen 7750 and gen dial?
There are a few old threads talking about altering the dial color. Most used iodine and baked the dial for a few minutes.
Does anyone have updated ideas on how to age the dial, or is the iodine method the best? I want to darken the indicies of my 5513.
I dont have pics, but my last sub was a holes case, but had the t. I had it checked at a local ad by their tech. He confirmed it was fully gen. I had the original receipt and this was the ad from the sale.

Btw, I would like to say, thanks for the tremendous work you do. We appreciate it!
yep. often the zenith movement isn't fully converted so that the date is removed. it's a small thing, but changing this makes it even more correct.
. . . there's just something about a daytona.
a member here . . . and it was the same price as phong cases! It's in GREAT shape- 'U' serial number. I built a few daytonas and now that I have a gen case model I think this one stays in the family.
Specs are: Gen Parts include: case, crystal, dial, hands (correct tritium), bezel, crown/tube, pushers. Movement was a NOS zenith and was fully converted to a correct 2 pull system with NOS Rolex parts. Sporting a cool nato strap! On the lookout for correct box/accessories for this one.
