PeteM Posted November 16, 2013 Report Share Posted November 16, 2013 Anyone have a navitimer datewheel (gen) or even a good scan of one? I need the date at 4 from the tricompax model. Thx I cant say I have seen a gen DW for a 7753 based movement plenty of 7740s... I would start with the Chrono-shop.net or Dr Chrono on Ebay...they get dials and parts so might have some DWs.... but you would need to ask them direct... or just search chrono24 for parts Of course they aint a straight swap into the rep movement unfortunately...

chronoluvvv Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 from what i remember the newer rep Bentley 30s have the DW you're looking for and ironically the Navi's rep DW would be the right one for them except for both being recessed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andreww Posted November 20, 2013 Report Share Posted November 20, 2013 It doesn't exist Pete. A gen tricompax datewheel won't fit an A7750. And nobody has made a Breitling 7750 datewheel with the first 9 numbers rotated 90 degrees. Only solution is a rep Skyland or Evo datewheel which will be accurate 22 days a month.

I knew if anyone would know it would be you mate :) I remember when I had a gen DW for a MBL I couldnt make it work without stepping up the rest of the build... plus it didnt fit the rep DWw anyway !! But I guess 22 days aint bad if its worn in rotation !! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

db1 Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 @gasdoc I've made a thread on the same subject as you do about 6 month ago (trying to make\source a gen DW for my tricompax navi) - there are no scans of a tricompax DW available anywhere. I've got my hands on a breit 7750 DW scan - and have tried to rotate the first 9 digits - but the result is not professional enough (and i'm not sure if the font is %100 same as the tricompax navi) any luck on your side ? db Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
