Any advice with adhering date wheel overlay to new mvt?

[horologist]

Hello to all,

thanks to all those for your advice on buying a 2836 instead of a 2824 to adhere a date wheel overlay in a previous topic.  Much appreciated!!!!.  I just purchased a decent 2836 and would like to adhere the date wheel overlay so any advice on what is the best recommended way of putting one on would be much appreciated, especially type of glue and levelling it etc. Seems like a fairly simple procedure, but I leave no stone unturned in avoiding any disappointments with the results.  It wasn't easy locating one to begin with.

Would also appreciate any advice regarding when putting on dial spacer on the do's and don'ts?

many thanks in advance!!!!!

Check my flickr photos, there you will see the use of a couple of variants of 3D printed tools I use for fitting, and aligning DWO's, mainly to Rolex reps, TC, BK, and frankens.

I use 3M Spray Mount to mount DWO

It allows for repositioning without getting things messy
