No. This is The Beast. Lol
The 26237st has quite a different date font from the other ROOs. It’s part of the character of the watch.

Zeula look at the gen 26237 datewheel font. The lines are thicker and the font is slightly different from the classic or modern fonts. I am producing a small batch of datewheels for this specific model and will be happy to give you one when done!

Really, Thanks a lot Legend. Not sure that your omega datewheel will be correct for my period than your new one or not sir.

No Zeula neither the omega datewheel nor any of Mikey’s datewheels will be correct. The 26237st beast has a datewheel of its own and that’s why a small batch needs to be made separately for this model. :)
The “7” all look very different on this model and the spacing of the numbers, and thickness of the font is different too.

I will definitely reserve one for you!

The 25271 beast also has different datewheels (depending on the series)from what your watch has (see below for a 25271 example)

and if your build is to replicate the 25271 beast than the cyclop needs to be a different one too.
Remember that the font on the beast is different from the other ROOs and there is currently no aftermarket datewheel for it.
Look at the 7 on the 25271st. It’s almost the same as the font on the 26237 except that the 26237 has thicker date font lines.

Whatever version your watch is replicating, you will need a special datewheel for it. For this franken model the datewheel will always be an instant tell. That’s why I have to make a batch of dw for it. It’s a necessary hassle!
