Valty Posted July 27, 2011 Report Share Posted July 27, 2011 Hello RWG Daytona's probably made me slightly crazy - many of you already know the problem... Look what the postman brought me kindly this morning : Is it serious, Doctor ? R. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wiesn089 Posted July 27, 2011 Report Share Posted July 27, 2011 Congratulations! Daytonas tend to do this to you, it's well worth it in the end, trust me! Looking forward to the finished project! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lhooq Posted July 28, 2011 Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 Wow! When did genuine dials become de rigeur for V72 Daytona builds? You won't regret it, Valty! Now, how about the bezel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krpster Posted July 28, 2011 Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 Wow that is purdy! Can't wait to see the project put together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valty Posted August 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 Thanks for the kind words guys I am actually planning to swap the current dial of my 6265 to this one ! Wow! When did genuine dials become de rigeur for V72 Daytona builds? You won't regret it, Valty! Now, how about the bezel? Nobody's replicate the vintage Cosmograph dials correctly... So a gen dial is much much better, yes About the bezel, I'm quite satisfied with this one... Will see later, maybe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dluddy Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 Nothing like the real thing - sweet and can't wait to see it finished Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HauteHippie Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 Booteeful! The only way to fly with these vintage Daytonas IMO... except of course for a NOS T dial. But let's be reasonable! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a bit too pricy for some Tritium indexes, so yes, let's be reasonable I prefer to keep the money and buy anything else Also, if I would buy a Tritium dial, I would like to source an nicely aged dial, maybe with the Sigmas too ?

No this absolutely will be a kick butt build with this dial as the centerpiece. I'd certainly be thrilled to have a franken with a dial like this.
