Hi Guys, I made these 2892 DWs, because several members did ask me to do so. I hope you are still interested to it. Here's a pic of it. 20 pieces in stock.

Just a shot of the 2nd run DW:

Hi all! second run of Ingy DW is ready to ship! See details on the first page of this thread. -- Lello.

UPDATE AUG 01 07: Maxim was born this morning!!! Thanks for all your support and your congrats guys! Finally I have some DWs in my hands too! (prolific week!) The DWs I have ready to ship are: - 2893 (but only one left, because they printed only five, instead of 10.) - 2892 (20 pieces available) - Ingy (20 pieces available) Please use this email address to get in touch with me: leonello_calvetti@yahoo.it To pay by Paypal, use this email: mail@leonellocalvetti.com Prices are: - Ingy = 54

UPDATE JULY 12th - 07. Hi, I actually already have in my hands the printed DWs for more than one week already, but unfortunately there was a slight defection on the alignment of a few numbers. You can see it on this pic: Numbers from 1 to 9 line up differently from all the rest. This will cause me to re print all of them, facing a big waste of money. But I'm not here crying for the loss, but I rather hope you will understand me, if there'll be a postponed of delivery date. This wasn't actually the only matter regarding this DW, as I discovered that not all the Pam models (reps), which use the 7750, have the same alignment teeth/numbers. In fact it seams that Submersibles have teeth lined up at half number, while the daylights 187 - 188 - 196, have the teeth lining up with the top part of numbers, as it should be on the DWs I have printed. So please forgive me for the extension of deadline. Probably this re printing issue, will let the others DWs in production, shifting a little as well. I will post when the newones will be ready. -- Lello.

Hi Guys, I always answered to those who asked me if I was going to print the 7753 Pam DWs, that it wasn't possible, as ETA doesn't sell blank wheels. This is true, but I found out that I can get printed DWs (with wrong font), that could be re printed with the right font. The only difference is that these already printed DWs, cost double than the blank ones. But this would mean just 6 euros more expensive than the usual ones. Plus maybe a couple of euros for the printer, because he has to delete the old print, before to print it again. This means that the final cost of these ones, will be 52 - 53 euros each. Please let me know how many of you would be interested. Thanks, -- Lello.

Thanks Sssurfer for the remind of my vacation. I'm back now and just spoke to the printer. I'm discussing with the printer to print all new Dws production in one time. This way the 7750 ones will be ready maybe a little later than I planned, but they all should come within two weeks (if hopefully all will go smooth). These DWs are: -Inge -7750 Pam -2892-A2 Pam (PR) -2893 - 2836 Pam (GMT) The Evo will come immediately after, my intention is to have it ready by the end of july.

I can make a few black numbers on white bg, depending on requests. I'm not sure if the printer would do it, in case of only a couple of pieces though..., I'll let you know.

Sure!

UPDATE Oct. 3 - 2007. Hi all, just to let you know that I finally got the 7750 DWs. I made some for 3 o'clock date (Submersible - 050) and some for 4 o'clock date (Daylight) Both in white and black version. The black 3 o'clock are running out fast and I'm afraid I will need to order a new run again. All the others (daylight black or white) and (049) are easily available and ready to ship. Those of you who need some of the above, please pm me, as I have difficulties to track back the pre orders list. -- UPDATE Sept. 17 2007. I'm finally going to receive the new 7750 DWs (along with the others), after tomorrow, or on friday at the last. I'm going to leave this saturday for a few days, so I will be able to ship Dws only on the Sept. 28th. Dws will be around 10 for Submersibles (and 050) and 15 for Daylights (10 black and 5 white). I will follow the preorders on this thread to give the priority. Of course I will ship upon payments. If requests will exceed the quantity, I will reprint a new bunch in around 20 days. -- UPDATE JULY 12th - 07.

These will fit both, original and asian 7750 movs. They will be ready at the end of this month. Once again, I decided to don't ask for payment in advance. Who is interested, pleas add your buying intention here on this thread. I'm going to leave for ten days right now and will be back on june 20. So, please don't full up my PM box, just add your comments here on the thread, until then. After I will be done with this run of 7750, it will be the turn for some 2892-A2. But I willalso reprint some 2893 - 2836 and some IWC Inge. I'm also working on the graphic file for the Breitling Evo, but this won't be ready before the end of july (hopefully). The approximate cost of this DW, will be around 50 euros each (67 USD) , shipped by registered mail. Thanks to all.

Hi all! I saw Robert (Verbal) pics, after installation and this makes me feel GOOD!!! As you might remember, the thickness ov my overlay is 0,05 mm thicker than the one it was there, but now we are all sure this doesn't create any trouble at all. The risk was just very very little..., but there was a little bit of gambling here. I'm going to print some more, because the first run of 30 pieces, just run out today. I think I will print 15 more and should be ready in around three weeks, because I need to order the blank discs from ETA, while the overlays are ready to be printed. It was a great project and I'm happy it was a success in the end. There are a couple of members who are waiting a bit too long to get it, I just hope that they won't be lost by the postal service, otherwise I will loose money... But let's beeing optimistic though. Now I'm thinking to the next projects: 7750 Pam DW and after that, the 7750 Breitling Evo DW. I'm going to make a post about the 7750 Pam.

I'm feeling good now that I'm seeing some good feedback about this long project. Now, I look forward to see some pics after people will have installed into the watch. I'm also looking forward to make sure all members who bought it, received it. Please, post here when you all get it..., many thanks!

Hi guys..., all DWs that were purchased to date, have been shipped and should reach you in around one week, or so. I still have 10 DWs left. But in case There will be more requested, don't worry, there are already other 20 overlays made. waiting for the wheels and print. Please read the update on first page, to know a little more...

Yes, I would still have the intention to print the 7750 Panerai DWs... However, I'm having some difficulties to sell all the Inge Dws I made (see update on first page) and so, I couldn't afford any eventual further losses, as several members didn't honored their pre orders yet. If I won't have to face this problems, I will be keeping the production of other DWs types...

New update on the first page!

New news on the first page.

I just noticed a discussion on this forum about the 2893 DW, being with recessed teeth, or if being flat. For my knowdge, all 2893, even the 2893-2, but also the 2836, have recessed teeth. The 2892, the DW that fits on some PR Pams, is a flat DW and has the teeth on the same plane as numbers. So, just to avoid any misunderstanding: MY 2893/2836 DWs, HAVE RECESSED TEETH. So please, make sure the DW on your watch, it's the same. Until now, in the past two years, I sold many of these DWs, although the print has been re made three times, but the DW disc, was always the same and nobody never told me it didn't fit because of the recessed issue.

See first page for some news...

Hi guys... this is the new 2893 Pam datewheel, that fits the GMT 063, 029, but also those models which use the 2836 movement. However, as I heard some rumors about it, make sure your rep DW, has recessed teeth, as my DWs. Right now I have 23 pieces in stock. To make this, I made a brand new hi res graphic file, using vector path, for the best sharpness of fonts. And so, a new clich

The 4 Euros are just the cost of blank DW. The glueing work it's something that I do, but I don't add any fee for it. On this project the problem was the overlay issue... To avoid members to send me their DWs, in order to print directly over them, I decided to produce new overlays. This costs me around 7/8 euros each, but I actually added only 5 Euros to the original price of 40

Don't worry Warren, on tuesday morning (as monday it's holiday here in Italy), I will call the printer and tell them to produce some more overlays and print them. Although I'm not so sure that all the people on the list will actually buy it... But nobody will remain without this DW. Thank you and to Frank as well, to help me to explain the work it's behind this project, I appreciate it.

Just to avoid misunderstandings..., this is not a sticker, it is a proper metal disc of 0,2 mm, produced by a lathe machine and then painted in white and then printed with numbers. It's called overlay, just because the rep DW on this model, comes with this overlay glued on the movement DW, to enlarge the diameter of the date wheel and match the date window, at the same diameter, as the OEM... So here there's much more work than any other DW and you could never get something like this for a better price...

Hi guys, have a look at the firt page of this thread for update and to see the pics of the printed DWs.
