ebzen02 341 Posted June 13, 2012 Thanks guys.. Picked this one up over at WC to benefit a cancer drive.. I had to sell a few pieces to get this one...lol.. It does have a gen bracelet, plexi, and crown.. So, that bumps up the $$. The only thing a DW needs is a nice plexi and maybe the crown..IMO..unless you are building a V72 tona.. Then a gen dial would set it off.. Otherwise, I think it is faithful copy of the real deal.. Wish DW was still around, because for the money, they were the best. I just love vintage daytona's! Btw, the DW bracelet is damn good compared to gen! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rav747 0 Posted June 13, 2012 I too wish he was around. I wanted a couple from him, but took it for granted he may be around for a while :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gB. 0 Posted June 13, 2012 Btw, the DW bracelet is damn good compared to gen! Have you been hitting the pipe today? I have this DW 6263 as well and sourced a NOS gen bracelet with end links and the DW bracelet doesn't really compare, especially the clasp and coronet. Even Yuki is better, but not as good. There is an older thread on RWG.cc somewhere that compared all three bracelets side by side. IMO nothing compares though to the feel and quality of the gen bracelet on the wrist. But agree the DW 6263 is darn good overall. Did the whole franken thing too with gen tropic 21, crown/tube and pushers. I would say the gen tropic was the most notable improvement, it just adds the jewelry quality look to it. . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebzen02 341 Posted June 13, 2012 Okay, maybe the DW bracelet is not as solid, but I don't think it is that bad? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
