Hey all,
I was told that some here might like this. My day date corrector whel rocker thingy broke on my grand seiko 5646 and I hear its fairly common for that plastic piece to fail and crack.
I of course could not find the part online aside from scavanging from some other seikos like the 5606's. So I decided to try and fab one up out of brass.
Heres some bad photos

I have to do some finishing on it but it works and I can now quick change my date once more.
