dutchguy2 Posted June 8, 2013 Report Posted June 8, 2013 Build details, JMB case and bezel, clark crystal, 2846 movement, yuki hands and ingd44 dial. 1
dutchguy2 Posted June 8, 2013 Author Report Posted June 8, 2013 That was untill I dropped it! Ingods dial is not that good!
vibramute64 Posted June 8, 2013 Report Posted June 8, 2013 Oh man, sorry the lume popped off like that. Really nice build all the same!
dutchguy2 Posted June 8, 2013 Author Report Posted June 8, 2013 Haha, it s allready fixed. Just needed to glue it back on. Still, not very peasant if it happens to some one who is not that handy to glue it back on.But thank you for your comments.It is indeed a very nice watch. Alltough the dial is a tiny bit to small for the case and very hard to fit correctly.
1680 Posted June 9, 2013 Report Posted June 9, 2013 Nice! I have the same issue with the dial, it is to small by 0,6mm, not easy to center and to fit. The dial I received has very bad lume too. I can't recommend the Ingod dial so far, I won't use mine, but maybe I'm just too anal. But you know: "ganz oder gar nicht" (go big or go home).
dutchguy2 Posted June 9, 2013 Author Report Posted June 9, 2013 Here are some daylight pics: Yes, it is just a fraction of a mm. If you want to get rid off yours let me know. Want one to relume with some lighter color lume. 1
danielv2000 Posted June 9, 2013 Report Posted June 9, 2013 Looks beautiful in the new shots! Congrats
blue. Posted June 9, 2013 Report Posted June 9, 2013 Nice build dutchguy2 Wear it as often as you can.
dutchguy2 Posted June 9, 2013 Author Report Posted June 9, 2013 Thans guys.Dial is Ingod44 and case, bezel is JMB's.
jmb Posted June 10, 2013 Report Posted June 10, 2013 AArgh... We have got to come up with a source for reasonably priced AND accurate 1016 dials...
CptTripps Posted June 10, 2013 Report Posted June 10, 2013 That's the truck though. The good stuff is always expensive.Still less $ than a genuine 1016!
lhooq Posted June 10, 2013 Report Posted June 10, 2013 AArgh... We have got to come up with a source for reasonably priced AND accurate 1016 dials... With this InGod dial, we're in much better shape now than just a few months ago. Maybe once all of those home-brew pad-printing projects start coming good...
jmb Posted June 11, 2013 Report Posted June 11, 2013 The diameter of this dial is an issue. It barely fits and the "SWISS - T<25" is too far away from the rehaut...
dutchguy2 Posted June 12, 2013 Author Report Posted June 12, 2013 The diameter of this dial is an issue. It barely fits and the "SWISS - T<25" is too far away from the rehaut... I agree on the diameter J but what do you mean with the SWISS - T<25 is to far away from the rehaut?
popklister Posted June 12, 2013 Report Posted June 12, 2013 I bought a case from JMB and it looks awesome. But the dial is the hard part.. thinking about buying a manhand dial from bay slap it in but the fonts are funny looking:(
1680 Posted June 12, 2013 Report Posted June 12, 2013 Manhand's dials are bad as well, either they are too small or the numerals are wrong.
jmb Posted June 12, 2013 Report Posted June 12, 2013 I agree on the diameter J but what do you mean with the SWISS - T<25 is to far away from the rehaut? Since the dial is right on the verge of being too small there is very little of the edge covered by the rehaut. It's probably not really that big of an issue but would likely cause sleepless nights for some. Compare to this:
dutchguy2 Posted June 12, 2013 Author Report Posted June 12, 2013 Yes, I see but this is because this dial has the SWISS - T<25 higher tha on most of the 1016 dials. LHOQQ Gen 1016 has this same dial like some other Gens. Mine: LHOQQ Two other gens
tomhorn Posted June 12, 2013 Report Posted June 12, 2013 (edited) With this InGod dial, we're in much better shape now than just a few months ago. Maybe once all of those home-brew pad-printing projects start coming good... Well, that's assuming you can actually get one ordered ... I emailed a couple of weeks ago asking to order one, and it's been radio silence ever since. Given the recent posts about the dial size, I think I am eliminating that one as a possibility now, I have been waiting on Whoopy's project to come together (thanks for your patience MD2020). Am about to just go with the NDtrading dial (despite the price) just to get my project done ... Edited June 12, 2013 by tomhorn
jmb Posted June 13, 2013 Report Posted June 13, 2013 Yes, I see but this is because this dial has the SWISS - T<25 higher tha on most of the 1016 dials. Gotcha! I have Autocad artwork done for a dial but I don't think I have anything with high enough resolution for it to print nice enough...
