CPTony Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 it seems few small things are not right and I wonder if this can be turned into a good franken SOH. if you look at the pic, the bezel has a different colour and the datewheel is a lil bit off set... so my questions are: - would be possible to put a gen dial on this? the movement seems to be a 2824-2 - where to find a decent blue bezel insert? is it possible to change it? - where to find a better datawheel? any help would be really appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miagi Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 fyi im pretty sure this is a black dialed version, and therefore should have the black bezel insert,... its just the reflection of light giving the blue AR-hue. there is a thread about someone building a franken off this with a gen dial. look it up in the breitling section.

CPTony Posted October 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 it's definitely a bkue dial as stated by the seller. I have looked at that topic and this is where i got the idea to build my own...however i need to find a better data wheel first, hope to get some advice here... cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krpster Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Alignment of the date wheel does not necessarily require replacement. Often times the date jumper can be tweaked to correct the position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
