Royal Oak Offshore Datewheel - Checking Interest to Get it Made by Taka

[Imaknockov]

I would quite possibly be interested in some of these, though I would like to make one suggestion, and would gladly entertain constructive feedback on it.

The date on the gen appears larger in the date window than on our reps. However, I don't think it's an issue with the lens itself, but rather because on the gen, the datewheel is slightly more sunken, and thus creates a slightly greater magnification effect than on our reps with the 7750, where the datewheel is closer to the loupe.

As such, I wonder if it would be possible to umm... "Cheat" and somehow make the numbers just a hair larger on the datewheel so as to achieve the correct look?

Perhaps I'm merely splitting hairs, but I reckoned it was worth a mention.

im worried that if the numbers were any bigger on the datewheel they wont fit into the date window as on my sec@12 movement there does not seem to be much room to make the numbers bigger,maybe there could be a mod where you could lift the cyclops up a little thus making the magnification that bit better also as i stated before the sec@12 datewheel is thinner than standard 7750 datewheel this must be very important when making the datewheels otherwise they wont fit the movement

any news on the date wheels

interesting, it will be a good mod for ROOs if its produced

this would be ideal:
AP FONT printed on a 2893 DW, with the printing slightly offset to compensate for the rep dial when using a GENUINE MOVEMENT.

I would take a few too.
