I'd use the 2836-2. That's what I used on my two frankens and it's a lot less work than Stilty's using a 2824-2 and changing out parts and using his special 2824-2 to 3035 conversion ring- Stilty is hard to get a hold of and I don't even know if he has any of the rings left over at this point. You can get a #2 ring from raffles-time in HK for $7 or $8 and it will space the movement in the 16014 case. A 2836-2 also takes a DW overlay a little more easily.

I don't know the size of the lughole drilling on a DJ, but it is smaller than a Submariner/SD/GMT. JMB probably would know that since he drills DJ cases on occasion.

Thanks to all. I was hoping to hear 2836. The date-changing mechaism is more robust and the way the bridges are made make for less interferance with the overlay. The mvement ring that I have is the rafflestime ring...#2. He offered them for $3 once and I order 3 of them.
