It's a visual trick and how you reshape the cgs.. it still could use slight more metal.. but if done right you can make it look longer..

Deep breath, be bold, make an offer. (deduct 10 %)

That was my mistake.. I didn't make an offer.. but you can definitely get a discount.. he offered me one for the next dial though..

Just ordered the same dial. Looks great however it's not the same dial as his eBay pictures, the coronet is the longer type.

Yeah same, I'll be sending it back if it's not the one shown in the eBay listing. It's the same dial @darknite bought from gan_antique. Supposedly a mk5 dial but it doesn't exist with the serif font. The one in the listing looks very good though. Poor form from the seller.

Hi, I'll see how it is when it arrives. If I don't like it I'll send you a PM and post a sales thread for you.

Neither at the moment, it's for a cal.1575 but I'm gonna clip the feet off and replace them with the bergeon feet I've got. Can be either 21j or 2836 position.

Just an FYI.. it fits the BP case perfectly, but you have to clip the feet..

Dials are not really movement dependant, feet position are. It'll fit both movements if you clip dial feet.

Thanks for the info! I'm waiting on sead to get myself a 1675 Pepsi with 2813 mvt and then switch the dial for a refinished one!

Thanks bro! Just to make sure, BP is the one that sead1999 has?

Thanks for the info @tripdog !
