Hey there ! I've seen on yuki's site that he have some ETA dials (im looking for a 1675 one), with a 27mm diameter. I was wondering If a 27.3mm dial, with feet for ETA movement does exists ? I only find 28mm ones....
Thanks !
Thanks !

27.3mm ETA DIAL ?

I don't think it's easy to source a 27.3mm dial unless it's a refinished gen and the last one of those I was offered was 6k euros..! But it's pretty easy to shave a dial down from 28 mm to 27.3. If I can do it, anyone can...

The feet are gen spec so you’ll have to clip the dial feet and attach new ones or drill holes on the main plate of the movement or dial dots. Dial dots should work fine as long as you make them tall enough to clear the GMT hand.
It sounds like it would be terrible to clip dial feet but it wasn’t nearly as bad as I thought it would be and I used dial dots to attach my dial.
Plus, I had to shave my dial bc I was building a 1680 in a cartel case so .5mm of the dial had to go. Now THAT is not fun. Mentally and physically. Lol.

First time I've seen that store - there's another one for the bookmarks... Thanks bc!
No problem.
That’s where I got my 1680 and 16800 dials from. Great guy with great customer service. He does seem to do better with some dials way more than others but there are some good looking dials there for the price.

This is what this dial actually looks like in the wild
On a DG with dial feet re-glued.I bought a few dials and hands from Ritches and he's an amazing man to deal with.
