Pretty sure I bought it from bananasplit a few months ago. I thought I saw one for sale the other day in parts section
I had 3 last month. If you’re EU, I’m Expecting to get more this month will list when I do.
Looking forward to see the 2824 wheel

Yeah I’m hanging out for this mod. I don’t want to spend 150 on a gen datewheel and 300 on a crystal. I’m thinking this and a prof black hole will be much better value

Just buy the gens, there are no substitutes. If they bother you now as their ARF version... they'll probably still bother you as a slightly improved version but still not perfect. Just my 2 cents anyway..
i'm keen to follow this but I think I will buy the gens and even a gen dial and make it as good as it can be.

There are substitutes: the ones I described. Having frankened an 116234, I know the deal. A plain old datewheel would be fine with me as long as it’s perfectly centred and prof does a damn good black hole. It would be about aud500 saving

It became more complicated, but we'll have soon a printing quality gen like
No, it's for the DJ41 as the title of the thread.
The DJ41 is larger than the DJ36 and as a result of this the date wheel is bigger, the 36mm version is a 3135 and this is a 3235. So they will not be compatible.
Can't wait any longer!!
The problem with gen 3235 date wheel is not only readily available, it is not a direct swap since movement isn't a 3235 clone...

In the first days of next week i'll post some pics of the new (definitive one) clichè that i'll use to printing the dw
Any idea of a ballpark figure of cost and timeframe for us to buy?
Wow top effort guys! Love the commitment to the hobby. I’d love to see you make this work and look as good if not even better than gen! Looking forward to updates

I hope this project ends up better than the Nautilus MKF date wheel project.
What a fiasco that turned out.
