    Hi all

    I’ve got a 424.13.40.21.03.001 coming (De Ville Prestige Co-Axial Power Reserve) as trade for some other pieces.

    It is still within its warranty period, but only for a few more months

    Really like the piece, but one thing that bugs me with the dark blue dial is that the date wheel wasn’t matched. So I’m thinking of waiting till it’s out of warranty and then looking at options in this regard.

    2 questions:

    1) Does the 2627 accept the same date wheel design as an ETA 2892 (and therefore both an ETA 2824 and Sellita SW300 as well)?

    2) Does anyone know of a replacement date wheel for any of the above watches that has a navy background and white text, to more closely match the dark blue dial of the watch?

    Thanks for any help :)

    I'm in the same boat - I've got this incoming and I'm looking for a silver or gray date disk. I've found a few affordable options on eBay, I'm thinking I might buy one and see if my watchmaker can work with it.
