OmegaPOFL Posted January 6, 2010 Report Share Posted January 6, 2010 Ever since i saw this pic. of HikeUSA's daytona 6263 (hope he doesn't mind me using it! it's such a good pic) i've been wanting a daytona just like this. I don't really know anything about 6263's. I know Spinmaster uses a 7750 movt, but takes out the auto- winding(?) mechanism and makes it a handwind, like the gen. (doesn't that cause wear in the long run??) i don't care if it's that close to gen.. so an A7750 is fine for me (can a swiss 7750 be put in that configuration?) Spinmastes's 6263's costs around $600. I can either get the A7750 with working sec. @9 OR get the copy of a lemina (sp?) movt. with faux sec. @ 6.which is better? or more durable in the long run? I'm thinking about spending somewhere in the $400 range (obviously for a A7750, i'll buy a swiss 7750 later-if it'll even work) So can i get a really good 6263 rep for that much? also, is David Wong the best guy to go to for cases? can he make a whole watch for me? some pics of gens.. also is there white and silver dials??silver dial?I know there are some very knowledgeable daytona ppl here, and i hope you guys can give me some advice!

kbh Posted January 6, 2010 Report Share Posted January 6, 2010 David Wong is the guy to go to. Either him or SpinMaster. The other choice is Phong @ Jewelry and Watch but his are a lot more expensive. DW will built it for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolfire Posted January 6, 2010 Report Share Posted January 6, 2010 You want a good, serviced & modded 6263? Look no further than SpinMaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
