It's my understanding it's best to solder new dial feet in place. There's a great post detailing the moderately challenging work here: https://forum.replica-watch.info/fo...feet-without-an-expensive-machine#post7009925

I do recall reading some posts discussing gluing or taping the dial in place, but that seems a bit short sighted and potentially risky if you need to disassemble in the future. I am by no means an expert though, so would love to hear some thoughts from others with more experience on the topic.

Here's a gen vs rep comparison. I'm just assuming this is a Noob

If Noob doesn't come back, even rep prices will be ridiculous

Soldering on new dial feet is a high level skill that few people will master. Using epoxy to glue new feet in place is a safe and reliable alternative that is much less difficult and less risky - a dial can be scorched while soldering. Also when gluing there is no need to precisely locate the new feet positions since the feet are already in place in the movement when the dial is set.

I describe the process in detail in the thread linked below for anyone interested.

For those who can solder, you have my admiration! If you can't, join the club - there's still hope for the rest of us.

Yes! Almost thrice of the RRP.

Brilliant post/technique KJ2020! Thanks for chiming in. Good to know there is a safe and reliable epoxy technique for adding the dial feet. The thought of having to apply heat anywhere near the dial definitely seemed a bit high risk.

This is a great found. Thanks a lot KJ2020
I have been using those dial dots which are far from satisfactory.

Hello everyone.

I am about to buy a noob v4 daytona black dial from a friend. I want to mount a CF bezel on it. I asked my TD and he told me it’s hard to get one because of the raids.
Anyone knows how I can get one? Any advise will be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Check with thrillofhunt or Rubberman . I have purchased parts from them before. If no one has it, it maybe prudent to just wait until supply situation improves.
