irolexu Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irolexu Posted December 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 Would a 1600 and 16000 use the same ring? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sneed12 Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can either install feet or use glue or tape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjjoyce1 Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redwatch Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irolexu Posted December 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2011 Mine didn't need modding Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kerbus Posted December 10, 2011 Report Share 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kerbus Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
