danielv2000 Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 There are 5 fonts for "rolex" used here.... All based on gen dials high reso pics following the original design by the micron. What do you have in mind by "off" please? Thank you. Pics are gone but I recall that the right leg under the "R" seemed too close to the left leg.

TgfRulez Posted October 26, 2012 Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 Also pulsometric? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rrari1 Posted October 26, 2012 Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 Bit of a noob question, but are these dials very useful? I thought that there was no reliable daytona movement available, or has that changed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TgfRulez Posted October 26, 2012 Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 (edited) Bit of a noob question, but are these dials very useful? I thought that there was no reliable daytona movement available, or has that changed? The movement issues are on the 1165xx Daytona, modern daytona watch. These dials are for the vintage 62xx Daytona. Edited October 26, 2012 by TgfRulez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rolojack Posted November 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 Done, done, done !!!!! David has 79 designs... Only 5 are for 6238 models, but I believe all versions for 6239 onwards models are done. Thanks for your help on this, without you, the Japan dial would definitly have been forgotten !!!!

wiesn089 Posted November 6, 2012 Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 Rolo, does he have the dials in hand already, or did you just send him the designs so he can have them made by his supplier? I'd really be interested in some of these, but detailed pictures of the finished product would be most welcome prior to ordering them...

TgfRulez Posted November 6, 2012 Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 I'd really appreciate a high quality PN 6263 dial for the old Spinmaster build! Me too! A black PN, a black dial 6265 and a 6239 black dial for 7750!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rolojack Posted November 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 His maker had the first films made two weeks ago, so production should start soon... Ask him ! He wants to be ready to sell for christmas I think. As for the 7750, he had about 1/3 of these designs already adjusted to fit. But of course priority is for V72, as these sell for more... Just like you, I am waiting to see the finished quality ! Once I get the first samples I'll post pictures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
