7S26 modders, what type of dial feet do you prefer to use?

[varkey]

Do you use dial dots (double-sided stickers) or metal feet?

What shape dial dots are most recommended: round, square, rectangular, or curved?

Or do you replace with new metal feet?

[Papi]

I'm sorry, I confused the dial feet with the dial markers lol. If I were to put dial feet underneath the dial, I would probably use the round ones.

[curt941]

I use round dial dots around the black movement spacer ring

I prefer dial feet, but don't solder new ones on, if the originals need to be removed. I'll use rectangular dots and trim them to fit more often than not. It important that the dots don't interfere with the date wheel operation, when present.

What, if any, is the advantage of the rectangular over the round ones?

[Nebuchadnezzar]

Dial feet make things so much easier.

Dial dots are not out of the question but I would prefer feet.

But don't dots allow for a greater selection of dials?
For ex: you can use a 3 o'clock crown dial on a 4 o'clock crown case, and vv.

True, snipping the feet off a dial is something I take into consideration when planning my mods.

It's much easier to take the feet off than add them. I wonder if anyone other than me would be interested in a 7s26(36) dial that has two sets of feet, one for 3 and one for 4 o'clock crowns. You could just snip off the set you don't need.

I would be interested but such a thing doesn't exist - at least not made by Seiko. Why should they make them?
But why speculate idly? Let's ask Papi.

Jake and Harold may be persuaded to make a few.
