Rockford up-down dial
I took a couple of days off from work this past week and spent most of the time in the shop. (my wife loved it)
I came across a Rockford wind indicator dial that though not perfect is a good looker. Anyone on 185 looking for one of these?
If so please let me know before it goes to ebay.
I can post pics tonight when I get home.

Thanks!

Sure wish I had the movement!

Many of these suffer from an inadequate dial. It would be nice to see it used to upgrade a watch, not just bought for speculation. Smile By all means let's see it!

Good Morning All,

That is quite a watch but, way out of my budget.
Now if it was a Hampden???

Well that is as good as it gets. Still working with the new camera. There is a hairline a @ 11:00 and one @ 3:00.

Can anyone on 185 use this?
I agree with you Lindell, I'd rather see it used not just bought and sold.

For those that may need this dial please either post a reply or call my cell (330.283.7486)
I have a firewall at work that will not allow me to respond to email. Otherwise I'll have to respond later tonight when I get home.

I just spoke with Mr. Malcolm Davis (185 member ) he said he need this to complete his PW. I will be sending out as soon as possible.

I am happy to know that this went to someone in 185 that needed it! Smile
