  1. There are a couple guys...Hard to get a hold of BTW, that make datewheels. The other issue with the Rep is that the date wheel sits too low in the window. There are a couple solutions one posted by Francisco to solve this with A7750. The other solution is to change the movement to a 7753 which requires a new date wheel altogether but would solve the height issue.

    My rep 250 has a thick font but I am in the process of changing to a 7753 so it wont matter. Once I get the work done, I can sell you my thick font wheel....

    Someone else may have a better solution.....including a possible source for the datewheel mine has.

  2. Complete watch was purchased here. I have purchased the 7753 and am in negotiation for another dial. Seems the hands may be my last "requirement". After that, hopefully off to The Zigmeister for the work. I am not qualified to do this work, nor would I want to. I have a donor watch that has the movement, and I will probably want to swap movements to have two complete watches when done.

  3. Ok, My good friend watchlover just informed me that my 250 project may need to be reviewed because the dial I currently have will not fit the 7753 movement. What would you experts here need to know to verify that. The layout seems correct, and the case is the "proper" case for the Tri-Compax with the date pusher at 10:00. Can you chime in? I have a source for the gen dial but it is expensive and the seller has not forwarded pics yet for me to decide....I cannot tell much difference between the gen pics I have seen and the dial I have so I humbly request your assistance....

    I'll post pics if that will help.
