parny Posted March 28, 2012 Report Posted March 28, 2012 Most Datejust II's are great accurate reps right out of the box depending on the manufacturer, apart from the DWO. Is there anywhere one can find an overlay that is the right size and font. I've also noticed some dials have smaller date window dimensions than others. Any info would be much appreciated.
sixers_610 Posted April 23, 2012 Report Posted April 23, 2012 Wait for TC's dwo in around 4 weeks the DJ is a 41 mm watch.. don't think it would work considering his is for a 40 mm Sub?
sneed12 Posted April 23, 2012 Report Posted April 23, 2012 Why would that matter? Gens of both use the 3135, so the gens should have identical date window position. Reps probably do too. I can't imagine that the factories print a different DWO for DJII reps than they do for Sub reps
w.genzo Posted April 23, 2012 Report Posted April 23, 2012 DJII has a 3136 movement which is a 3135 with Parachrom hairspring and Paraflex shock system, but the datawheel is supposed to be the same.
sixers_610 Posted April 24, 2012 Report Posted April 24, 2012 If it's a wider watch.. wouldn't the dates have to be farther out on the datewheel to actually fit?
correctime Posted April 25, 2012 Report Posted April 25, 2012 If it's a wider watch.. wouldn't the dates have to be farther out on the datewheel to actually fit? That's what I was thinking too...but appearantly not.
sneed12 Posted April 28, 2012 Report Posted April 28, 2012 I was wrong, the reps do not use a DWO. I can't say whether that's because the date window position is wrong (too far right = ETA position) or if the gen is that way.
MapsMoney Posted April 29, 2012 Report Posted April 29, 2012 im waiting for a good out of box DJ, in the mean time; can any of you guys direct me to a good Watch Maker who could make a Franken Rolex for me (For the right price) ?? I know BK but he's busy, anyone else?
sneed12 Posted April 29, 2012 Report Posted April 29, 2012 TC V2 DWO should work nicely No, it won't. That's what I just said. The date window position on these reps do not allow use of a DWO.
janeto72 Posted April 29, 2012 Report Posted April 29, 2012 my bad...misread your post... Sneed12 is right...TC V2 DWO will not work for this rep.....
