omgiv Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 Hi Guys, I was wondering if anyone knows of a good quality white dial 1680. I am looking for one that will go into an old MBW case. I was also wondering if anyone knows of a source for different size second hands. The ETA hands are 90/150/26 and I need some that are 90/150/22. I could get an extra set of ETA hands and try to tighten the tube on the second hand, but I have never had much luck doing that without cracking the tube. Can you get quality replacement hands on eBay? Thanks!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubiquitous Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 Oddly enough, I think MBW's white 1680 dial is quite decent. Pretty close to the real deal with that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omgiv Posted February 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 Thanks! Do you know where to get just the white dial and possibly an extra set of hands? ETZ sells the red version only right now. Thanks!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubiquitous Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 Maybe post a WTB. I know of a couple of forum members who have swapped out their dials for gen. Maybe one such member had the white font... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stilty Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 as for hands, check with clark on ebay. buy a set of tudor hands for sub, and buy a set of rolex sub hands and poach the second hand. If I remember correctly, Rolex 3135 second hands are .22 he has both sets available. he may even just sell you the .22 second hand. he's a very nice guy and is helpful.

omgiv Posted February 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 Thanks for the tip on the hands. I can't find the hand size for the 3135 but might be worth a try. Thanks!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stilty Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 3035/3135 are 22, so no problem getting them from clarks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
