pitimany Posted February 21, 2007 Report Posted February 21, 2007 I'm still working in geting the tropic 21 to fit.
Falco Posted February 21, 2007 Report Posted February 21, 2007 Very nice, please share all details about the project! What's the problem you're having fitting the crystal?
ubiquitous Posted February 21, 2007 Report Posted February 21, 2007 Looks great!! What's more.... I'll bet it runs even great! Congrats! One of the holy grail Daytonas, for sure!
RWG Technical Posted February 21, 2007 Report Posted February 21, 2007 Well it was an interesting project... much more work than installing a V23 into the DW case. Movement was not serviced, only installed, but doing so, and getting everything to fit and line up, and be secured in the case, took many hours. Even installing the hands, required modification and tedious work to get them to fit. In the end, it looks good, and works great. Wonderful project, and I am glad that I was able to help you out with it... RG

Virgil Hilts Posted February 21, 2007 Report Posted February 21, 2007 Nice job. Where'd you get the dial?
Guest avitt Posted February 21, 2007 Report Posted February 21, 2007 Nice job. Where'd you get the dial? I'm guessing that it's current generation DW...
manuel Posted February 24, 2007 Report Posted February 24, 2007 why was diffcicult to fit? I heard that you can order 2 types of cases depending on the movement you plan to install: V72 case V23 case with mistery movement. so if you order the v72 case, what was the problem then?
HauteHippie Posted February 24, 2007 Report Posted February 24, 2007 The results speak for themselves!!! Count yourself lucky!!
