FINALLY!!
After many attempts and many failures, I have FINALLY disassembled a dial, changed the day/datewheel and out the hands back on the dial!!
It doesn’t sound like much but felt like a great accomplishment for me!
I really feel like the correct day/date disks bring it a lot closer to being a very accurate rep!!

Very nice, I see the second hand has been updated but not on TD sites...looks amazing with the silver blue red dial details...so very tempting!
Congrats! You've done a great job. Extra special given it's the first time you've succeeded! Hope you now venture onto bigger ventures
Yes sir, gen slide rule it is

I appreciate it!! Felt great!! Haha, clicked on the chrono... I bent the minute hand up just enough and maybe the chrono stick bent down just enough where they rub and stop the chrono...
simole fix, but it’s been a two attempt two night ordeal and I’m really dreading taking it out of the case AGAIN!! But it will be done and fixed with Care..
...I’ve said it before I will again.. slide rule does it!! Crystal is amazing ????!
youvknow my favorite one is the stratos though..

Can’t say enough about this piece.. It is one of the few in rotation with my gen chronomats.. Meaning: I have a couple nice pieces I should sell..

Got this today. Was hoping I could deal with the sunken date, but probably can't.
Can anything be done?

Man that is absolutely stunning. I’m at a loss for words, I think this piece has revived my love for breitling.
Are there any glaring discrepancies between this piece and the Gen?
