My post was censored. I guess I can't use the word caulk.

In this picture the click is the little shiny nub directly at 6 o'clock in the gap between the balance [censored] and the auto winding bridge. Just to the right of the balance [censored] screw. These DG are actually a real bugger to work on. Much worse then the ETA 28xx series. They use an all in wonder bridge that encapsulates the auto winding parts and the gear train. It is a real PITA to line them all up. Good luck

Procedure is identical. Dial diameter difference between V1 and V2 is 0.2mm. But it doesn't even matter since the case has extra room regardless. You can swap dials all day long between V1-V2-Gen.

That's true. suppose I should have looked at his locale before posting

If I am closer to you then sneed I will also offer my bench to fix it for you.

Looks great on the Zulu. Annoying when you get a new price with a loose part. Part of the game but still...

If it is an Asian ETA then it will be 28.8 already. It is the ones that are advertised with 21j that typically have the low beat DG2813. Even then they are sometimes the higher rate 4813. Share the link listing the watch and we can help more.

Well changing hardware doesn't make much sense to address date alignment issues. For the most part it has very little effect, except for the date wheel spring. It all comes down to the date wheel itself and the placement of the overlay. It is possible to do assuming the overlay is good. Just need patience and time.

Looks pretty good. Budget builds are fun because there is very little to loose by trying things. Easier to take risks. Nice job.

That is freaking cool! Holly sheot!

Perhaps you should offer them your services.

Wow! Impressive list of parts. It shows in the result. Nice job.

Ephry beat me to it. If you still need something let me know.

I will measure the ones I have when I get home (on the road ATM) and let you know. Might be able to find a generic screw for less $.

I think the bigger problems will be on the dial side anyway. Function wiee they won't have the RH subdial correct. As noted it has two hands. Their function I am not sure but I am betting they can't do it with the current array of movements available. That alone would kill it for me.

Welcome aboard Doc. Hit the ground running I see and well on your way. Enjoy them all and please share with us some photos. We always like to see what others have in the box

Based on Mazda specs 19" is available as an option. If they are OEM wheels then the tire pressure label on the inside of the driver door frame will tell you the pressure you should run.

Very nice comparo. Thanks. Must have been fun to spend even the few minutes with that vintage beauty.

Gorgeous! Mine is a step or two behind yours. Can't wait.

My thoughts exactly

Just got mine last night. So far it is great! Decided on it based on the specs, mostly the I/O sold it for me. It is true no 3G but bluetooth tethering to another phone is not far away.

That's what I was thinking too.

Nice work mma! Looks great. Very satisfying to do it yourself.
