I would use a bit of 100% acetone on the insert first(with a paper towel for god friction) then use the bleach. If it's not ceramic, the f-er must age!

I meant Gen like dials. I need a dial as I am getting a different case for another movement similar to this and hands. I want to have the exact opposite in dials as this one.

I have asked this before, but I need to know which manufacturer has a Daytona rep dial that fits the ST19 movement. Or if someone has a rep dial that they would like to sell that fits this movement, for a vintage project that will be grand.

Be VERY VERY careful with a dremel. Use the slowest speed setting when ever possible. It is very easy to [censored] it up if not careful. I like to hand file first. Small file and a vise grip and patience. You can always take more later, but it is VERY hard to put material back on

Quick and dirty of one I just built using a case Chiman12 sourced for me.
Milsub dial, sword hands, aged bezel. On a custom black Zulu PVD strap. Odd comb, but apparently these were issued as parts were available.

I think 702 into 700 is easier/plausible. 700 into 702, not so much. The main reasoning to trim down a 702 tube(sacrilege anyone?) is perhaps to have the two o-rings in the tube, as opposed to one.

Bones,
i would love to see the details of the crystal on these. I am placing an order soon, and Michelle mentioned that they don't have the old cases any more.
Nanuq,
Cannot find if I asked this before, on your macro dial shot, is that dial sitting inside the rehaut, or just underneath?

How about a group test buy for some of us to buy a few of these at "test" prices and provide out feedback? I will be definitely interested in at least two.
