Thank you gentlemen. I have heard these before, and actually did send out my DW 6263 for a service. I tried Rex over at Repgeek and had a HORRIBLE experience. It came back with a busted chrono, he pretty much gave up on it. Still had to pay (long story). So who can do it?

Thank you sir! This is very useful information!

Is this possible? I vaguely remember a member doing it...but I can't swear by it. Of course, one would have to port the mechanism that transfers the minute counter from 12 to 3. If it is possible, who can do it? Isn't the legendary Zig retired? Thanks for the help guys!

Zeleni, where'd you get that strap? Looks awesome!

I received this from the legend himself, jmb. However, I am a sucker for low-beat. Can anyone help out? I've looked at the 2789 and 2542, but I'm not sure if those would work... Thanks!

kbh, thank you for standing up and saying something. EDIT: not referring to the post directly above.

Sure, if you want to look at it that simply.

Ironically, Warren Buffett would say the exact same thing. But would mean the exact opposite of what I think you're saying.

I'm fairly sure China isn't going to ask for that money back. Your children have little to worry about. The US can get away with it. Countries like Greece, not so much. Case A: Nixon ending the gold standard.

I love you guys so I won't address the political economic arguments made here. Arguing online makes no winners. I would love to go over this over some beers though. Texas GTG maybe? Anyway, I will throw in my two cents for our those who will be reading this thread (from all over the world). As an American, I can say that at the very least, my faith in America has not been diminished. I realize that feelings are still raw, but I hope that eventually, no matter who you voted for, we can get past the fear, and the anger, and work things out together.

I've had success with Mr. Jun at Queen Fashion Jewelry on Broadway between 32nd st and 31st street. He's in a stall in the back of the store but I'm fairly sure he has all the tools you need for a simple dial swap.

JENNY! Been trying to call you since 1982! Funny you would pop up here...

^yikes. Are these dials for v72 or a7750?

hot damn.

I don't even like the white gold surrounds. 16610, 16750...those crossed the line too far into jewelry IMHO

Awesome build.

You guys are not helping me getting rid of the watch bug.

Yes, they're correct afaik. Gen spec bars worked fine on mine.

What do the CGs look like? This might be one of those newer models.

+1 Nice watch, btw.

Sneed--what's the base watch for that one? Is that one of the new cartels? It looks great.

Gosh, this thread is so good. If anyone has one of these for sale in CONUS, PM me please!

So as y'all can see from the pic, I have a situation where I have a 6263 dial in a 6241 case (long story). Luckily, I was able to obtain the right case (6263 for an a7750 movement) thanks to the generosity of a forum member. Now it just has to be put together. One caveat: there is an old tube stuck in the 6263 case, so it has to be removed before the new one can be installed. Who can I send it to? Any modder recommendations in the CONUS? Thanks!

Well, the other drawback with the Josh (cartel) case is the caseback...it's a bubbleback type and it's bigger and thicker than gen.

I'm building a 5513 with an old school MBW case. I have a gen 703 crown. Wondering which length tube I should get. 5.2mm? or 6.2mm? http://www.cousinsuk.com/catalog/4/0/1954/3397.aspx#select Thanks for any help!
