good morning,1665 DRSD (1976) light franken
beautiful your vintage.
Speaking of 1665 Double Red, what do you think is the best quandrant to work on? obviously for cal 1570.
thank you
Quandrant = dial? If so, I think there are experts here who can answer. I have build 3x 1665 using viet dials from Kuared and from my point of view there are pretty good (great white, DRSD mk II and mk IV). They are normally supplied with feet for gen calibers (1575), so in my case I needed to cut the feet to fit them to low beat ETAs. I have a plan to build a franken using 1575 soon too so will be thinking about which dial to use again.
I think other viet dials are also pretty good (Phong?)
Yes,
the viet dials are well made.
On my 1665 I had mounted a supply gen dial, obviously on cal 1570.
I thought yours was MQ.
