What is the BEST date wheel mod for a 1680?

[alligoat]

The only way that I know of to obtain a cartel DWO is to buy the watch- like this one from Josh:
http://www.1-pc8838.com/rlsv01105-vintage-1680-asia-2813-28800-best-p-9669.html
Remember, it's a PC link- you may have to click twice on it to get the watch to come up.

I posted a similar thread, but silix has some 50-60 dollar cheapies with vintage datewheels. Anyone have a suggestion on one of those? I've been looking for a datewheel for my 16660 build for a while now and having no luck.

Silly question - will a Cartel 1680 DW overlay fit straight into a Angus'/PT's 1680?

It's just a flat bit of printed metal mate. It's up to u our to glue it over the old datewheel and get it aligned.

Hi,
this is the look of a gen silver datewheel used as overlay on 2846 movement.
You need to sand down the movement datewheel so the overlay dos not touch the back of your dial.

But remember gen rolex 1570 datewheel turns anti clockwise so you need to set the date everyday manually.

tried different reps overlays and not one satisfied me.

Sorry for my poor english.
