1680 white dial

[Cats]

Does anyone know this guy besides his vintage pearl slaes.

Is this dial close or completally off

Would like to know the opinion of the experts.

I've never bought any of his dials, but I think a few here have. It looks like a good rep white 1680 dial.

How far are you going with your franken? If the answer is "all the way", you may be better off considering a gen dial

I agree w/ JoJo. The "Submariner" printing on that dial doesn't look too good. Dial feet are correct for the 1575 movt. But for $129 at least you're not out too much money. Next step up is gen or NDT. Don't know how hard it is to find good gen dials these days- too many of us franken builders out there!

if you get exactly this dial - go for it -

looks as good as NDT minus the rip-off price

and 1000 times better than the dial you have in your watch now

cheers,

did you try Eurotimes ? they should sell the MBW dial too - but i think the one in the auction is nicer ...

The MBW white 1680 dial from Eurotimez would at least have eta dial feet- with a relume, it might be pretty cool. And it's not as flawed as the red 1680 dial, IMO.

Typical HK dial; same as CWP offers. Serifs give it away.

Problem with gen 1680 dial is that they won't fit in the MBW case and have to be shaved a fair bit. Not sure you want to be doing that with a gen dial, it will render it worthless. Apologies for advertising but i've got a good quality 1680 dial already shaved, check out tools and parts section to see a pic.

Cheers
