How about a 5512 dial with no watch to go in yet?

It’s a Ruby’s gilt tritium, I’m tempted to have it swapped into my newest pick up

THAT is a Ruby's dial?!? That is OUTSTANDING! Please share the details on this! I've never seen anything like that coming from Ruby's before!

Where can I source a dial like this? I absolutely love it. It looks like the love child of a 5513 and a 14060.

That is a genuine 5513 transitional dial. So the forerunner of the 5 digits. I think it is 1984 -1986 if I remember correctly.

Thanks! I read that in the thread but was curious which rep dials replicate that look as it is extremely gorgeous! Would a 14060 dial from Raffles be worth it? I know that one is 29mm not 26mm so that might pose a problem. I'm using a JKF 5513 with the DG2813. I have no issues with cutting the dial feet off and using the dial stickers to attach the dial to the movement. I have not seen this dial at Ruby's watch. Does anybody else have this as a rep dial or should I go for the 14060 dial?
