Well as Alligoat says, unless you building a franken 14060 then forget it. You see when there seems a bargain in the vintage Rollie world there is always a catch. Good lesson everyone ... Cheers P.

Nice one Dan, i wanted to put a gen white dial in there too but shelling out that kind of dough would have me divorced in an instant ... Looking forward to seeing the dream Cheers P.

200 bucks is a bargain if everything is gen. Best to check out the seller before you check out his goods. Whats his pedigree, where's it coming from. If you have more detailed pics it would help Cheers P.

the date window on the gen dial will not line up with the A7753. If you want to use a gen dial you gotta use a gen 7753 and vice-versa i built a couple of Navi s using eta 7753 and gen dials. Biggest problem is the winding stem doesnt line up in the rep case. it can be fixed. do a search i posted a few threads on this topic cheers p.

Wow ! looks great, thanks for posting. A tip when installing is to take the old numbers and paint off of the original date wheel. This will give you a few microns more if clearance so date will move freely Cheers P.

Great job Jackflash and thanks for posting a pic. Yeah would be to see some more photos posted. A tip is that if you don't like the shiny surface or the brushed look, because of the indented numbers you can rub it smooth with 1200 grit sandpaper and spray over with clear flat varnish. The numbers will not be damaged and may be easier to read. Any questions just ask .. Here's one on my 1675. I had no alinement problems but its gone to Pbad now for a service so will post more photos when it gets back .. Cheers P.

Date wheels are landing now, thanks for your patience guys, China Post are still in the Cultural Revolution. Anyone who hasn't received there package by the end of this week please let me know. If any go AWOL or are damaged i will send replacements for no cost Cheers P.

Haha! yeah you wouldn't believe how many times we re-did the sample but thankfully he's a very patient and understanding guy. cheers P.

Thanks for the update Jackflash. The printer told me that there maybe a slight discrepancy in the numbers due to the printing technique but only a slight margin of error . If you are unhappy with yours or anyone else for that matter i am happy to send you another to try at no cost Please let me know P.

Got it Ben< thanks. Will post to you asap Cheers P.

This is a real beauty, 51 bids but look at the bidding history. And its from Vietnam to boot http://www.ebay.com/itm/Tudor-Army-In-Watchs-9411-/121161797708?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1c35ce504c P.

Good job the noob isn't perfect or you might have sent your gen in by mistake great job ! P.

Well Ebay won't let Paypal give him the funds until you say all good with the feedback, keep us posted. and good luck P.

Sounds like a steal now he's relisted. Stealing the money ...

Damn good deal for CONUS people ... http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-rolex-insert-pre-owned-blue-black-100-original-16800-/251320056806?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3a83d7bbe6 Cheers P.

Yes plenty left, please PM me with what you need. I posted the first batch out to all who ordered this morning. Cheers P.

woa! that is beautiful, and perfect on your wrist ... P.

Hi guys, thanks for all those who placed orders, the datewheels will be ready this week and posted asap. Just put my 1675 together with a sample so here is what you can expect: And can Ben Hodges please PM his address, thanks ! Cheers P.

All good my friend. Datewheels only thing on the agenda for now but when they finished will open a few doors for some vintage builds ..

Very nice Chiman, i could probably make you a very nice Roulette datewheel for your 2893 if you interested Cheers P.

Ha ! that's what you call a drill nice P.

Hi guys, ok after much time spent with the printer gettting the numbers lined up we finally have the finished datewheel. They will still be in the silver finish as it was impossible to do them in white this way because of the thickness issue. But with the way these are etched i think its possible to make white ones from these, i will try once i received the finished order They are now in the process of being made which will take 10 days I'm posting more pics to show you and will start processing orders now so i can be organized right when they arrive. Price will be 30usd each (sorry slight increase from estimate) plus 15usd P+P with EMS tracking. Sorry postage is expensive out of China using EMS but i've had stuff go missing using local China post and its not worth the hassle to me. With this you get tracking and delivery anywhere in 5 days. If you want to risk local post its 5 usd. Please let me know when you order. Please PM me with how many you need and your postal address, i will then send you my Paypal details in the PM Pics Cheers P.

yeah its gen

Thanks guys, still in the prototype stage, i gotta get them exact before they get made in serious numbers. Looking now at getting them dome in white like the service replacements cos replicating the brushed silver is seriously hard to get right. Hope to have by end of July Cheers Peter

Hi Dave, only vintage, plenty of good quality modern ones around Cheers P.
