Where to get a Gen BB Dial, and bezel insert? 41mm rose dial

[TheKnight]

Im thinking of buying my first rep! yay me! ok and I might want to switch the dial and insert to make it look more gen. Where would I go to buy the gen parts? Anyone have any trusted dealers for rep parts?

Is the dial the big giveaway with the old school eta bb 41s?

thanks all!

Not worth it, mate. The cost of a gen insert and dial would be 1/3 the cost of a good pre-owned gen BB, you might as well go gen.
Helenarou has a decent rep, available by inquiry, it's better than the ZF but still not perfect.

Helenarou.com, not a TD here, but a good source for parts.

You need to inquire by email, MK will get back to you with details. They do not advertise their rep stuff.

Are they selling whole watch or just parts? And are they trustworthy? Thanks

They sell both parts and complete watches, but the case and back lacks the appropriate engravings. Their dial is good for upgrading the ZF 79220, if you have one with the flawed rose.
The print quality is better with more relief.
They are very trustworthy, not a TD here, but a long-time trusted supporting vendor at rwg.cc

Thanks mate. I would have few mow questions if you dont mind. Is their lume good and also the hands? And is their bezel better. In short, what you suggest me to change on my ZF in order to make it best possible? Thanks once again

Here's a pic of one of mine with HR dial,hands,and insert.

The lume on dial and hands is ok, but not super bright, both could do with reluming if you want a perfect match and torch brightness. The insert is superior to the first versions of the ZF, which were too glossy, but I would only replace it on the newer versions if the one you have is scratched or damaged.

But the gen is gold dial ink and hands isnt it?

On the gen 79220, they used pink/rose gold -to give it a vintage look.
