Hi guys, As far as I know doesn’t exist decent out of the box rep of 14060, and asking to some td no one of them could find me bp or something similar.
So I decided to go myself, I bought bp case without crystal and bezel (first hard parts to find????), now I’m considering about gen dial and gen insert (it must be sanded) and asian2824 movement.
Could be decent rep at the end or it is better to go with bp 16610 and than put off cyclop and Change dial?
Any advice will be appreciate, also if someone tried this built before.
Thanks

It's still the same old story- there is no good 14060 rep out there. The 14060 is just a tad smaller than the 16610, so no 14060 gen parts will fit anything other than a gen 14060 case. All you can do is take a 16610 rep like a BP and remove the cyclops and put in a no date sub dial. Check out rafflesdials.com.

Or save you money up and buy a gen!

I gave up trying to build a 14060 years ago. I scratched the no-date itch by building a 5513 using a gen transitional dial with white gold surrounds, viet bezel, gen insert, gen crown...

I just saw “raffledials” no date dial and it isn’t too good in my opinion, obviously is exaggerated cheaper than gen.
Thanks for your reply
I think I will save money for gen dial, gen complete watch,now and in a while, will be still too expensive...

If I remember correctly, all of the 14060s came with drilled lugs.

The 14060 dial is also smaller than a 16610 dial.

Seems an ARMIDA A9 300m could be a good stard for a 14060 build.
I've never had one in hand but it seems that case and bezel dimensions are almost identical ... so a 14060 Gen dial and Gen insert should possibly fit.
