irolexu Posted December 9, 2011 Report Posted December 9, 2011 I need a movement ring for a 16000 series case and do not know where to source one also when I put the ring on the movement how will I mount the dial to the movement? I need to re-do my Franken DJ. Needs a new eta 2836 and a proper ring and a new dwo
redwatch Posted December 9, 2011 Report Posted December 9, 2011 Check with stilty. He may have one for you
irolexu Posted December 9, 2011 Author Report Posted December 9, 2011 Would a 1600 and 16000 use the same ring?
sneed12 Posted December 9, 2011 Report Posted December 9, 2011 What does the ring have to do with the dial...? You mount the dial using the dial feet, just like usual.

I am mounting a gen dial to a eta gen dial=3130/3135 not ETA??? this is what I was told so my dial does not have feet any more

cjjoyce1 Posted December 9, 2011 Report Posted December 9, 2011 rafflestime #2 movement ring adapter (either from rafflestime.com or off ebay) will fit perfectly with no mods. Get a BK DWO.
redwatch Posted December 9, 2011 Report Posted December 9, 2011 Oh yeah good call on the #2 movement ring adapter! I forgot about that one! For the dial, get your self some dial dots: http://www.ofrei.com..._130.html#16506

Kerbus Posted December 10, 2011 Report Posted December 10, 2011 The reason why mine did is still a mystery to me. I'm sure glad it still worked out well though.
irolexu Posted December 11, 2011 Author Report Posted December 11, 2011 Ok so my case back said 16000 and my DJ case says 16014 does this change anything as far as the eta ring

Kerbus Posted December 11, 2011 Report Posted December 11, 2011 Be very carefully ordering that rafflestime spacer ring. Either it didn't work for my case or I was sent the wrong size. It was a huge set back when having my watch built and I was very fortunate to just have a ring custom made and the build completed.
