  1. I just installed a t19 in his 5512. Just froze the case and heated the crystal ring and no modding was required.I will try to post a pic tonight.
  2. That could have saved us modders a lot of heart ache! Ha
  3. I would try to keep it's original shape.If glued it can still be removed pretty easy if needed by removing the bezel.Sometimes you even have to do this with gens.
  4. If it looks like a pretty good fit I would just add a few pin head size drops of hypo cement.Just my 2 cents.
  5. Very nice. I am sure it will be very special to him.
  6. Got this in the mail today from iROLEXU. One more piece down.
  7. For the 6263 I will not need the date. I am planning on converting it to a 7760 which is not made anymore.
  8. You need to remember the time difference as well.It gets worse. Wait till it hits shipping and you check the tracking number ten times a day!
  9. If serviced I would think that if you have a 703 crown that pushers would be changed to screw downs. I always thought that in order to be called a oyster it had to be a screw down pusher.
  10. I have a bridge coming from Cousins for the conversion and will be on the lookout for a 7753. If it doesn't work on the Daytona I might just order a generic case and dial.Perhaps we can come up with a top movement ring for tabs.
  11. My original plan was to go with a V72 movement but between the price of the movement and service I was thinking a new 7753 would be a little cheaper and rock solid.It will be a little while until I get the movement so just exploring options.Next on my list is gen spring bars and crown and tube.Thanks again Chiman.
  12. Congrats, I will be on the lookout for the review.
  13. So would there be any issues with stem and crono pusher placement?
  14. Do you think it is possible to fit a gen 7753 with the 7760 bridge in a DW V72 case. Just looking at options.
  15. Thanks, I will take a better pic this afternoon. It took forever to file down the bezel for a perfect fit for the plexi.
  16. Update, I have installed a J&K tropic 21, Cleaned up the rust a bit and have added Clark pushers. In the last pic the Clark pusher is on the left and the DW on the right to compare the difference.
