Gen dial on the left

As you can see, the text under the date window is slightly different. What you can't see easily is that the 6-o-clock subdial is aligned better on the gen and that there is no lume at all on the rep.

Thanks for the comparison............(where would i find a gen dial?).........and by the way the after surgery gst looks great, i would love to see some pics of lume in the dark...............Thanks, Wan

A gen dial is sometimes available on eBay. Search here for where people have found them. :D

As for the lume, don't forget that the rep hands don't have any lume, so lume shots are rather boring.

The other thing the genuine dial has that bothers me (and no one else it seems) are the bolder marks on the subdials at 60, 30 and 12.

There isnt a huge difference so don't bother really... it's only for nutjobs like me and Puggy ;)

I'm going to get my dial installed once I can afford to get an ETA 7750 to put in there.

Also, anyone know if the groove on the hands are there for the SuperLuminova? Has anyone tried filling it in ?

I'm looking for replacement hands, and I'm not looking for Superlume as the gen dial doesn't glow anywhere near as much as SL.
