Diceman Posted November 13, 2007 Report Share Posted November 13, 2007 Valjoux 726 fit in dw 72 case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddy333 Posted November 13, 2007 Report Share Posted November 13, 2007 Valjoux 726 fit in dw 72 case? Generally, yes. The 726 is an upgraded version of the base (V72) movement. All dimensions should be the same (unless a vendor modified the design for his own spec). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alligoat Posted November 14, 2007 Report Share Posted November 14, 2007 Is the V726 a GMT movement? Shoot, I can't remember all of the V72 variations. Chuck Maddox has a blog on the Valjoux variants which might be helpful. Of course, plan B is measure it and compare it to the V72, but as freddy says, these are all basically the same movement. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddy333 Posted November 14, 2007 Report Share Posted November 14, 2007 Is the V726 a GMT movement? I think that was the 729. The 726 was just a modified version of the 72b. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alligoat Posted November 14, 2007 Report Share Posted November 14, 2007 Here's the Chuck Maddox blog: http://chuckmaddoxwatch.blogspot.com/2005/...discussion.html It states the 726 is an improved v72... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alligoat Posted November 15, 2007 Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 I wholeheartedly concur w/ freddy, the Rolex Daytona book is a MUST HAVE if you're going to pursue building a vintage Daytona. It is an incredible source of information- stuff that's hard to find anywhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manuel Posted November 15, 2007 Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 I own a 726 watch. Mine is non gmt. It is a beautiful movement. I have seen some non rolex watches with val727, prior to this I thought only daytonas carried this movement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
