Alan32 833 Posted April 22, 2020 Thanks for all the positive feedback, took me some time to get up the courage to take apart a decent watch, having practiced on a couple of DH gate duffs. WARNING! to anyone doing mods I had everything done perfectly except the day date was not quite aligned...Why? because I had set up the dial for a THREE o'clock stem. so I had clipped the wrong dial feet of (it comes with four) and had to reattach them, but it worked out in the end. 11 hours ago, tabuktime said: Love that second hand! dlwwatches.com. for all sorts of hands dial bezels ect 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
