Oo good info. Or maybe just a decent overlay. Glad you mentioned that begore I dropped on a gen DW. Might have to consider the date plate as well.

@botsyboy made the gen date disc work by sanding it down to make it as thin as the stock SH3135 date disc
but it is all trial and error, maybe the gen date disc works in your sh3135 movement without mods

Good point. I suppose I'll get the disc, try it first and go from there. No need to spend unnecessary money

to sand rehaut, i just cut a small piece of 200 grit and start sanding. then move to 400, 800, 1200, 2400, 3000, then a cape cod cloth then a scotchbrite pad to rebrush it.

for the date disc, either sand the outside down a touch, or try to sand down the jewel that is a tad too big for the disc. either works.

In my experience the JF case has a much shallower Rehaut which is perfect for an early 16800 build.
