What movement are you using? The gen 126710 uses a dial with no feet.

If you are planning on using a rep GMT true clone movement with your custom dials (like a VR3185 or VR3186), those movements have feet holes in the 3135 positions (at 12 and 37 minutes). Someone making a custom Rolex dial should be familiar with those feet positions or be able to get a 3135 or 3185/6 dial to copy from shouldn't they? The feet size would be the same as the gen or rep 3135 or 3185/6 dial feet.

I think I've seen the date window measurements somewhere, I'll try to find it.

So the company im using makes dials for i believe 36mm rolexs and daytonas and I believe for gen watches. Ive seen their work for their other meteorite dials inclusing their seiko dials and theyre amazing. As far as me not knowing why they dont have a dial to copy i think its because i wasnt clear it was for rep watches (clean etc that ise vr3186)
