The font is wrong, but it’s by far the best one I’ve seen so far :)

Any chance you got a seller link or info?

Not so wrong imho, however the best available as rep/aftermarket actually.

I had bought them in the past from a local wachmaker near me, so maybe i can ask him if he still can get them.

Unfortunally i remember that these aren’t cheap

Its MK2 font on a MK1 dial, so it’s not a combination you will find on a gen, but it is waaaaay better then anything else I’ve seen so far.

Daytona text is well places, so is subdial text. And best of all, no weird marble lines on the dial.

I would definitely take a couple if we can a hold of him :) And thanks for you help, appreciate it

agreed, I can live with the difference fonts as well. Next hurdle for me is finding coloured lizard strap.

I’m doing a bracelet build, so luckily I can skip that step :)

If I do come across a strap, I’ll put it up in here

Yeah, that’s what i mean buddy :) The dial isn’t perfect, but is not that bad compared to the other aftermarket actuay on the market. Replacing the 9-6-3 index with the one of the other aftermarket this will be better.

In the past i had bought also the other beach dial that is available, but it has wrong lines on subdials, and also to fatty chrome rings on the subdials.

This one is miles way better, but i remember that was a bit less the the double price of the buff dial (that i had paid 280€). Need to check but i think was from 560/580€ that was quite expansive (that’s why in the past i bought only two of these). But i need to ask if he still able to get these.

Totally agree, this is the only option atm :)

Lets see if he still have them available, and maybe we can get a group discount :)

Do you still have the ones you bought in the past?
