OK here it goes... I know it can seam weard... but I have to adapt a Tudor Submariner date dial (same as snowflake see picture) on a rolex datejuste (aquivalent to picture) ... is that possible ? I know some of you guys must already think i'm crasy... resons for that "adaptation" would be a bit long to explain... Thanks for your answeres.

superlative Posted May 15, 2011 Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 No. DJ dials are 28mm. Snowflake dial is 26mm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

conteo Posted May 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 superlative, Thanks for your answere, so that's the end... ? no chance i can figure out a way to match that tudor dial on a DJ or other similar rolex...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lhooq Posted May 15, 2011 Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 If you don't mind losing the branding, there is a sterile Snowflake dial available on eBay (item #220783138693). Claimed diameter is 29mm, so you may be able to trim it to fit into a Datejust case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
conteo Posted May 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 that's not a bad idea LHOOQ i'm not shure it will fit in a 28mm case but it might be worth trying? but no date window on the dial and how to be shure of the mesurments... I don't really know in fact.. maybe thinking about going for a simple tudor ranger with rolex case engravings ... if someone has that for sale...

lhooq Posted May 15, 2011 Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 If you need the date, the same seller has the same sterile dial with a window at 3. At least you won't have to worry about it fitting on most ETA movements. jmb would be the guy to consult on these Rolex/Tudor Oyster projects. He has a very nice Pink Ranger (and that's not a Sean Avery joke). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
