cib0rgman Posted October 8, 2010 Report Posted October 8, 2010 I have decided to upgrade my DSN 088, I will install a T-48 crown and I was wondering if there a better date-wheel that can be installed, Also I am gonna try to fix the sunken date-wheel and if possible maybe replacing the crystal fore a better one. Can someone tell what DW do I need, what about the CG can this be improved somehow... Thanks Last post update picture
dadog13 Posted October 8, 2010 Report Posted October 8, 2010 (edited) If I am not wrong, I believe that a takashi DW would be ok for this mvt since it is a A7750... http://www.2geek.net/ Edited October 8, 2010 by dadog13

cib0rgman Posted November 28, 2010 Author Report Posted November 28, 2010 I have my DSN 089 back from The The Zigmeister with a T crown and sunken DW fixed. Now what do I do with the cyclops I need a new one perhaps and a new CG
PeteM Posted November 28, 2010 Report Posted November 28, 2010 That doesnt look like DSN latest 6mm cyclop crystals given the AR reflection and edging. If not try him for a replacement tell him its for the 7750 if you order. And yes CG (mainly lever) looks like it could do with a better version or even modding I saw one on RG sales that would do the job You should of got Rob to do the CG pin while he had it but you could do it your self mate assuming its not just a bad pic and pin is better in your hand? Then get a better lever. Whats the side on like? But given your dial dont go mad mate in terms of mods/costs etc
cib0rgman Posted November 29, 2010 Author Report Posted November 29, 2010 @Pete is not his latest this watch is from 2007 and The Zigmeister did fix the pin the level was all wobble I believe is the word. I guess I can contact DSN and asking for a newer crystal version and maybe a new CG. You are saying that my dial is not really good! by the way the watch was also re-lume and service by Rob @Drulee my bad it is a 088 I Always get confused..
cib0rgman Posted November 29, 2010 Author Report Posted November 29, 2010 A new crystal is $60.00 not sure if this upgrades is actually worth the money. What you guys think. Then probably will need a new CG and dial. That is almost a new watch.
