Hey Guys,
Looking for the Correct Flat 4 Bezel for my 1655
Yuki has one but its not quite the one I am looking for. Its the small bold font.
I am looking for the thin wide font like the one shown.
checked ebay and one guy is selling them for $350.00 was looking for more in the 150-200 range.
Are there any other options out there?
TIA
JSeb

Just stumbled onto this thread and flipped through all 22 pages. Awesome stuff from legendary builders !! Here is my humble contribution Cartel 1675.

The rhodium grey with blue markers is so hot. I tried on a gen at an AD on my birthday. It's a sweet piece. It's on my list. The grape is my next fave. Post pics when someone gets theirs. [emoji1303] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I had thought that perhaps there may be a work around by swapping the crystal to the plastic lens..but from the sounds of it , this isnt the case and not as easy as it sounds..
My whole motivation for wanting to do this build is your bezel and insert JoeyB. I just love them Bakelite look and want one so badly. I thought that getting the bezel to fit would be easier than shaving CG's, etc on another style case.
If I was to buy one and send it to you, would you be able to work your magic to see if we can solve this issue? @JoeyB?
I am envious of your DLF 6542 and seen that you were in the process of building yourself another 6542 before you bough his. have you completed the build and if so is it still for sale. thanks for your time.
Update: Heard back from William at Tiger. they are onto V4 of the 6542 case with the sapphire crystal lenses. will find out if these are pressed or glued.
Tiger also offers a vintage style rivet bracelet but they are out of stock atm.
just need to source a dial to fit the dg 3804 movement and the bezel from JoeyB if he still has .
Just heard back from Tiger...that was fast..
The crystals are pressed in on the V4 cases they are just waiting on parts for the vintage style bracelets.
Mine as well!! Just love the 6542's!!
I am going to buy the Tiger case..I assume that this is V3 can anybody confirm this...since this thread is old as dust...Has any of you guys worked with the recent edition of the Tiger cases yet?

@JoeyB Has it been confirmed that your bezels and inserts will fit these cases as of yet?? If so, I will be in touch ASAP! Any chance you sell the dials as well for the DG Movements?
Thanks for your help guys!!
Oh on another note I contacted Yuki about his 6542 case sets and he is asking 800.00 us for them ! That is a bit more than I was expecting.
