Awesome which parts will you use? And what dial color?

To be honest you don't really need more parts than a genuine dial and datewheel because the rest is very good already!

ARF Bezel will be sufficient (dimensions look good!), imo a genuine period-correct 6-digit fluted bezel (cheapest around 450 - 500) is too expensive, if you consider one take the genuine smooth bezel in SS.

Genuine Crystals are nice but not a must-have

I hope we see the SS smooth bezels soon.
And JF really needs to fix that DWO font.
@gamba66 any tips where to source a Gen smooth bezel from?
The ARF fluted bezel looks good but won't shine like white gold unless rhodium plated.

Spoilt for choice lately. I'm loving these developments

Does this new ARF use the same bezel gasket system as gen? Meaning, does the back of this bezel have the groove? Or will it take the earlier flat bottom bezel?

I believe the diameters are also different.

Im wondering if it makes sense to switch the fluted bezel for a gen 18K and if it will fit

Other TDs are selling the silver dial one with 316 stainless steel for $348. I have a suspicion that's 316.

In reality, how can we see the difference between 316 and 904L?

I would like know before I pull the trigger for it.

Thank you.

They ( JF/ARF ) always keeps messing up date font but I think this time they reached new low with thickness of font on this DJ. It's twice as thick as gen.

A 2-tone version of this 36mm ARF on Jubilee bracelet with 904 steel would be cool. Loving these developments indeed! With the correct date wheel, of course!
