watcher Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 Looking today at their page revealed a very good looking range of Vintage Daytona's with very good dials and sub spacing. Not sure abou tthe movment but I think they are saying VJ72 lookalike. THes elook very much like DWstyle watches but the true experts will have a better idea. Here's the link to the webpage. http://shopping.e-conveni.net/index.html?cart_num=1743 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonton2000 Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 WOW! (mention of it looking like a vj72 copy removed to save myself embarrassment!) I wonder how much it costs!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigpops Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 I'm no expert, but it just looks like the Venus 175 copy we've had for ages, with 6 o'clock sub dial frozen. I'm guessing that the case has changed significantly from the ones that were available, due to all the shots with digital calipers in. If it gets the okay from the experts, i think i'll get one.

tonton2000 Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 That bridge does kinda look like the venus bridge, so maybe it is just that I just done a currency conversion, and the watch works out to £155/$300, so maybe that should tell us everything we need to know.

ubiquitous Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 Venus with frozen 6:00 subdial. And, maybe it's just my eyes... But the pushers look symmetric... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubiquitous Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 This is what you want... Asymmetric... The reset pusher at 4:00 is offset a bit lower towards the lugs... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dani Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 Might be my first rolex one of those Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sql_pl Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 This one is cool: I would wear it on a nice black strap with rolex buckle... But it should not have "Oyster" on a dial when it has regular chrono pushers and that crown.... This rare dial with brown subdials is also cool!

Guest Sql_pl Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 Oh and while we are discussing vintage daytonas - Randy or any other expert - I have a question - should regular black 6263 dial have pure white subdials o should they be a bit silvery?

Definitely a bit silvery... Must say, that silver dial with brown subsidiaries is quite nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sql_pl Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 Thanks a lot. My EE has kinda silvery subdials and I was a bit afraid it was wrong as many pics of gen 6263s seemed to look like those subdials were white... Cheers!

ubiquitous Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 I've noticed that as well. It could be lighting conditions, or perhaps Photoshop color balancing, etc. I'm not sure. However... I've seen images of both white and silver font dials (standard black) with silvery subsidiaries. Based on the source of those images and watches, I have no question regarding their provenance and authenticity; I believe those to be correct.
