Date overlay positioner coming soon

If the overlay is rubbing the underside of the dial, you can use a dial spacer.

Punch a few small depressions in the dial spacer ring.

A staking set makes it easy, but it can be done with another sharp object and some care.

Good call Chris, I have had to do just that on a few reps, and on some I have had to make my own, especially for some TC builds, with these I use a compass circular cutter, this allows me to make my own paper spacers from labels, these stick on the TC movement holder.

very good idea!

never had to do one of these yet but good to know something like this will exist.

 

why not also have holes for other dial feet?

are they in the way of the windows?

 

 

thats a beautiful DW too!

Yeah, I think the Eta dial spacer is not enough. I will ayer some packing tape over the spacer and cut it away with a razor. 2-3 layers of the thin stuff should be about right.

 

It seems to have corrected itself after flipping at midnight last night.

 

I also found a mid case in my pile that looks like it will work...
