kokoko Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 Spent quite a few minutes last week at AD comparing my rep. Corum the the gen. one (the blue color one). The only part that is visually different is the date/day wheel (which is black on the rep i.o. blue on gen + the font is quite different (although the gen font is not pretty at all, I must say Anyway, was wondering if it's possible to buy the gen date/day wheel for this watch and how much would it cost. AND whether it would fit the mechanism? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anton Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 Gen: Rep: Close, but not correct. The gen uses a La-Joux Perret 8235 (which is just a modified 7750), so if you EVER happen to cross the gen day/date wheels, they will fit.

tjul Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 Thanks Anton. I got my answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dario33 Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 To change the topic a bit (I have a black dial on the way soon) -- mystifies me why the gen does not have double AR crystal. ETA day/date wheels will fit this watch just fine, btw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anton Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 Because the fonts in the ETA wheels are much sharper and crisper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
