We're working on it to get them produced asap. We'll inform on all the boards when the time is right. Shouldn't be too long.

It is a great news!!! Good luck on it!!!

Where I need to be.
Hi guys

We were having issues printing the datewheels perfectly and that caused some delays.

The good news is, the omega project is now a collaboration between edgematic, myself and another guy. We are looking to get them printed at a new source in Europe. Please stay tuned we are equally excited to be able to move forward with the printing with this new printer!

Hi Legend, really looking forward to the final product of this project.

I have 2 questions regarding to this:

1) If I try to pair this DW with one of your mk3 cyclops, will it give a wrong date mag? Since you said that this is specifically designed for the stock cyclop.
2) And, Will the new AP ROO 2014 font also be produced in this project?

Hey gents,

Short little update. Orders have been placed at the manufacturer in Switzerland. ETA is approximately the beginning of January.
If all goes well it might even be around Christmas.

We'll keep you posted accordingly!

First batch will be:

- white (ivory) background with black font
- black background with white font (for the diver etc.)

We're getting there!

First batch will be for the 2824/2892 movements. Being all the frankens, 15400, 15300, 14790, SS diver, FC diver, ...

The A7750's datewheel is thinner vs the swiss 7750 datewheel. This is something we need to dig into a little deeper.

Best,
Stijn

Once production is finished and all datewheels are in our hands we'll be able to calculate the manufacturing costs etc. We'll update on that asap.

Thanks for the clarification Edge. However I don't see the problem with swiss 7750 datewheel: I have it installed in my AP Singapore and my BB, without issues; in fact several members did the same thing with other AP models...
