I'm in a silver XC90 R-Design

There WAS such a rep. We had a discussion about it a few years ago. LINK.

Thanks By-Tor - Seems everything really was better in the old days

I can't find any later type (16520?) seconds@9 tonas at our dealers. Anyone know if those are still made?

Like this one (gen) or just ss

Obviously, not a gen, but no one will notice the hand's slight stutter (due to imprecise machining of components, which illustrates 1 of the differences between a $300 rep & a $10k gen ) from normal viewing distances.

How are the ones you've treated running compared to the one I had?

These have been making the rounds for a few years at least. Unfortunately, the hour totalizer (lower subdial) is a bit too low & bleeds into the minute track, which is a dead give-away.

- I ordered a couple of 6263s just to check them out. Maybe I should stick with the idea of having Spinmaster build me a piece?

Here's a little vid of my grail 116509. Imagine what went through my mind when I first looked at that second hand

thogaa: FYI, there's a long 6263 picture thread here. But I'm going to add to yours.

Daytona Pyramid power!

OMG the top one I want

Not just pics of 6263 Tonas but any kind. I want more, more, more

And I'm not even drunk yet

Definitely 6239s, and the standard dials look kinda nice!

I'm considering ordering this one

Are the subdials a little too far apart?

These recently popped up on Josh's website. Non screw chrono pushers - steel bezel. What's your guys $0.02 on these?

You need a standard, 3-hand movement with subsidiary seconds that will fit the Daytona dial/case (you will probably need a spacer ring since non-chrono movements tend to be much thinner than chronos). Once you have the dial dimensions, you just have to locate a movement that matches it (specifically, the spacing between the center cannon pinion & subsidiary seconds pinion). Cement the 2 subdial hands to the dial & you are off to the races.

Maybe I should contact Domi and make him do it?

My smallest tool is an axe

I badly want a secs@6 panda dial Daytona - latest version.

No jerky second hand and no need for working chronos. Who’s gonna build it?

What's the remedy?

Sounds Nigerian to me

"i received this watch for maany years of service with a londan bank but never really used it much"

But Daytonas spend most of their time just hanging around

That's quite a collection

While I'm waiting for a couple of the Joshua's latest vintage 6263

The Tona-fever struck me some time last year - I bought a panda secs@6 but it had the worst jerky seconds’ hand I have ever seen. Had to let it go. I was then cured for a while until recently when the cartel vintage project came out. Might not be 700% accurate but I think I can live with it. - If it actually works.

I have a fairly large wrist and I'm normally into larger watches but slowly turning towards the less diameters - first the DSSD, then GMT IIc and the latest Explorer 39mm got me. Maybe the fashion will turn towards smaller watches?

Any wristies of Daytonas?

Cheers

What more could anyone want?

Why don't we do a fundraiser to get a camera from this century for Joshua?

I expect the strap to be crap anyways...

Made me order one

Thinking of excuses to tell my wife

Wow.

You've had all the right mods done to that watch. Miss mine - I sold it when I bought the red gold rubberclad - bad mistake
