I've always been in love with the Tricompax Navitimer, arguably my favorite watch. Upset with lack there of a Super rep, I've always had a dilema of where to start off a super build. Years ago I decided to go with a JF B01 ... I believe. I figured the a7750 case would fit a gen 7753 and a A23322 dial. Years later after I finally took the plunge , I was mistaken... Movement and dial fit, but there is a good gap from dial to slide ruler.... The JF dial diameter is 33.8mm and the A23322 dial is 32.8. gap is sufficient for me to see the steel movement spacer shining through the 0.5 mm gap... Could someone confirm if any of the current reps have an appropriate 32.8 size dial? Or what known base rep has been used for a 7753 with a gen dial? Thank you.

The B01 rep is 43mm whereas the A23322 rep is accurate at 41.8..

if you had a gen b01 dial and B01 movement, I have no idea if the JF or GF 01 rep case would work...
but the BP A23322 rep should take your a23322 dial and 7753 movement...

someone will have your answers though...

Thank you... Looks like I'm going to have to bite the bullet again on another Navitimer.

Or another dial from an older navitimer that had a 7753 base but a larger dial.

Is there a 33.8 7753 Navitimer dial?
also can someone confirm if the steel bracelet from the B01 is compatible with a A23322?
