Good evening everyone,
My name is Antonio and I'm typing from Italy.
I don't speak English well and I need help with the translator.
I am very happy to have found this forum and be part of it.
But since I'm passionate about vintage military watches I saw this treed and I was fascinated by that dial
BLANCPAIN US navy :clap:
I own the RDUNAE, and other various mods that I made.
Including No RAD and Tornek Rayville but for one reason or another something is always missing. Short hands, large dial etc etc.
Now seeing this beautiful dial I ask you: where can I buy it?
Then I will post some mods made by me but they are ugly when compared to this mod of yours.
Thank you. :thumbup:

P.S.
I have the original drawings of the Tornek Rayville, if you are interested I can post them.

I have a RDUNAE with the TR dial - thinking of selling or trading - PM if interested. Excellent nearly unworn condition.

Anyone know of the new watch dives fathoms case back is compatible with the Rdunae case back? I like the case back of the Rdunae over the watch dives and thinking of buying a watch dives as I like the lug to lug and lug width better. Then swap Rdunae TR dial to the Watch dives and Rdunae case back to watch dives…Doable?

No, the rdunae has an anti-clockwise screwing and also has a gasket that fits inside the edge of the case back.
I wanted to do it too.

I did this with the Rdunae.
I put the humidity sensor in two-tone paper.
Then I'll make another better one.
I have to do the Blancpain US navy. :oops:
