takumee Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 Hi all, just order my first vintage daytona and this is the dial i going to have. What you guys think? so is this a 6239/6262 or? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lhooq Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 6263 or 6265, depending on the bezel. Dial looks OK, though I would prefer less shiny and less punched subdials. I'm guessing it's from DW's new batch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiesn089 Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 No, that's a 6263/6265 dial. "Oyster" on the dial always refers to a screw down pusher model. Also 6239s or 6262s did not come with red "Daytona" writing above the subdial at 6. When present it is in black or white/silver depending on the dial color.

wiesn089 Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 Ah ok, thanks, I did not know that. I'm by far no expert for the non-screw down models. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lhooq Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 I didn't know about it, either, until just a few weeks ago! I've been looking at a lot of Daytona dials lately... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
takumee Posted April 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 I'm awaiting the daytona guru to help me assemble my DW base with gen crown and crystal. Is this the best dial we can have?I opted forth silver bezel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flex Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 I've seen better rep dials.. is that the new DW dial? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lhooq Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 Something in particular you are looking for? Gen dial? Oh, that would be nice, but a bit out of my budget! No, I'm looking closely at the rep dials out there and trying to see which ones could be modded to a higher standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
takumee Posted April 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 I've seen better rep dials.. is that the new DW dial? I suppose so since it's from spin. Better dials like yuki or? Can provide link? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
