@Tanukjaju
Thank you for the compliment.

2824 Swiss.
With vintage genuine oyster cases like 1002, 1003, 1005, 5500 and 6294 it is plug and play with a couple of simple tricks but nothing major.
And I must tell you with gen cases it is a world of difference.

15000 cases you can use DG’s for a straight fit. I am working in one now.

I agree with you on these older cases. I have a Franken Tudor with a fantasy dial in a 37mm jumbo case. It’s ended up being one of my favorite builds quite unexpectedly because the case is special.

I’m thinking of getting the dial redone with a gilt dial one day soon.

Imho this post should be pinned at the frontispiece.

These dials are the top of the game and a delight for any connoisseur.

In a sterile aftermarket with few or no improvements in 20 years this is what I consider filling a huge gap with accurate pieces ranging from vintage oyster to maledetto italiano…

@Fizzzz, hats off again and I hope your efforts will see some limelight soon…

Lets cheer up with a summer Fizzz.

@madasboot
Ahaha,
Thanks for the drink buddy!
I'll take the Sctoch and let you the diluents

I'm not sure this post need to be pinned,
main purpose was to tell the long way to get there.
Yet, a topic for Gilt dials would be cool.
