Idk gents, just tread carefully and do your research. Here are some images of Chinese made dials available on XianYu, a reseller platform in China. They sell for 1500-2000 CNY.


Yes. And that is also what you get.

I will only say look at the quality of the print and the crookedness of the Daytona signature. Enjoy lol.

And bro no offense. But you didn't even see that the print on your 520 dial was fucked.

how can you guys spend a decent amount of money on dials and works and accept that BTF racing bezel abomination goes beyond my comprehension

LOL that's why I bought a CF for the base

Now I have to live with
- Wobbly endlinks that can't be fixed with new springbars because endlinks are too short and not wide enough. Gonna have to fix them with adhesive double sided tape.
- Movement needs to be serviced and relubed completely, shit scratchier than my aunt's cats
- crystal needed replacement
- fat caseback that I hope my watch smith can replace with an old noob he has lying around

But hey, the dial that I will take out looks nice and the bezel is better.

LOL

I would go with CF. But the blue aventurine dial looks better with the metal bezel, IMO. I wish for a black aventurine dial soon.

@ap@12 I would go with CF bezel. BTF looks great but is a bit more yellow compared to cf.

Contact @CTime for this

As per crystal contact @xingpatrick

Hands, depending on what you're looking for I can help you out sourcing also.
