I could machine you one if somebody will cough up the exact dimensions or offer up one to copy... Plus, the bezels will be different heights depending on sapphire or plexi...
If the thread was wrong it would probably be totally stripped and spin in short order. I've had gen 6mm crowns have the "clutch" going bad which makes them intermittent...
Now that I haven't been in constant learn mode for the past several years reading is more fun. When I go to the "throne room" instead of a car or gun rag it's probably Terry Brooks, Tim Zahn, etc. Fantasy and Sci-Fi - maybe my subconscious is trying to tell me that I really don't like it here that much...
I have the least problems in the "time set" position as well UNLESS it's a 7750 then the winding position is the only thing keeping stuff from falling apart!
R, I think I will have a bunch of plain-Jane overlays coming in a couple of weeks but they will be printed but send a couple and I'll return them as overlays. I plan on using the silver back-side after coming up with a way to put uniform radial brushing on them...
I'm getting the feeling that there are numerous date wheel styles (font) depending on what watch was the recipient. R, what watches would the DW you are sending apply to?
I might have a batch of wimpy font overlays coming to use as a base for complete overlays. If this batch is like the few I sampled several months ago they are on a SS base so I may be able to make up some silver overlays...
BE EXTREMELY WARY OF ANY OF NANUQ'S TECHNIQUES!!!!! His idea of lightly vintagizing it to hit it with a belt sander, run over it with the truck for a few days, feed it to a Griz, and then have Griz crap it over the side of a cliff!!
