Hey,
I bought a ARF 116610LN with an ETA 2836 Movement inside, but it uses the shitty ARF Datewheel. Since this is one of the big give-aways of the watch, i wanted to ask you where i can find a better Datewheel that fits the ETA.
Can i also use a 2824 Datewheel? And if yes, where can i get one that looks Gen-Like?

Thanks for the help and best regards,
Patrick

you need an overlay. the best ones are either BK or TC overlays. The wheel itself has no effect on the font

The DW and xtal are really clear,same as gen.
Much improved over the blue tint unfocused view on the reps and thats all subs.
There’s a reason why gens are around £7,000.
