6154 Case

Thanks for the info and comments, gents.

In such case, is Athaya's 3pc dial correct as per gen? It stated as 3mm thickness which I feel is very thick for a dial.

BTW, any idea who on RWG will do the PAM case reshaping? Particularly for the 6154 cases. Any referrals would be most appreciated.

Thanks again.

Thanks again for your advice, holo.

This is good news to know you can do the case reshaping. Should shoot you a PM in due course.

BTW, is the gen dial for 6154 a 3pc sandwich(Aluminum, plexi + brass) with just 1-1.2mm? To my eyes, it is definitely a sandwich dial, right?

Athaya is currently the best choice by far.

As in any vintage build, case will need quite some work in order to reshape some sensible areas and get the correct finish.

 

Dial wise you need a 1mm thick 39mm wide dial which is not like gen (1.6mm thick, 2 piece construction) but it will look very close to gen if made by the right people.

I understand, Kilo.
But the dial was donated from which watch? I don't think Bigwaved can supply the dial, he's the expert for the painting job only, right?

I have my own dial blanks of the following configurations:

37mm-

RP
LP

39mm-

RP
LP
MM

MMLP with subseconds
LPMM with subseconds
LP with subseconds

**subseconds spacing is for 616, 618, 3601, 6497


If you want something other than those, they need to be forced by someone else. I hope that helps.
