txcollector Posted May 30, 2010 Report Share Posted May 30, 2010 Folks, I'm not sure if this would be of any use for you guys but I'm planning to give it a try. Just print it and glue to your existing DW. For the 7750 the print size should be 24.64mm This is a pic of the OEM DW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drulee Posted May 30, 2010 Report Share Posted May 30, 2010 just read that thread. I don't see what the problem would be if you used a thinner paper or mylar, and maybe even sanded off the existing print on the wheel - especially with the GMT movements that have a lot of space between the top of the DW and the under surface of the dial. As for positioning the DW properly, if you include a couple of the DW teeth in the graphic when printing it out (assuming the teeth are in the original pic), they would help in positioning it, then you just cut the excess part of the overlay that contains the teeth. Plus once you manage to get the overlay properly fit, you could then spray on some clear varnish/paint on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txcollector Posted May 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2010 Doc, that's what I'm doing now. Cutting it as I type (well, stopped to write this) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wheaton26 Posted May 30, 2010 Report Share Posted May 30, 2010 i just e-mailed the original to tx, but here is a small version so you know what we're talking about (from the 2006 thread) ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbiz Posted May 30, 2010 Report Share Posted May 30, 2010 Here's a couple more versions of Pam DWs to further confuse the project Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drulee Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 kbiz and wheaton, any idea which movements those date wheels are for? None appear to be for a 7750. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
