Thought I'd try my gen moonie on black NATO, me likey:

So... it has been finished The jobs done on it: - case reshaped - lug holes drilled to accept gen-like spring bars - bezel spring replaced with a CousinUK Rolex aftermarket one, this solved the loose bezel problem - DWO repositioned - movement replaced with an ETA 2846 (21600BPH) taken from an old 1992 Automatic swatch, serviced and with mainspring, 4th wheel, cannon pinion and hour wheel from the original 2836 (in order to have good power and the right height of hands over the dial) - Athaya 702 crown and tube Pic following The "dirt" on the hour hand is just a reflection. There're no spots on it.

Arnie for president! ;-) I'll be back!

ok, so this means that no matter which microstepper you order, you won't be happy?

Hmm.. I am sorry to hear about that. But what is your definition of a "moderately" priced rep, and what is your preference inclined toward? Maybe I can help a little.

Good job on the mil watches! As for work areas...I have known three top tier pro repair guys in my life and all three had cluttered benches most of the time. They would clear their work space and in a day or two it would be back to looking like a garage sale. My work area usually looks worse when working on quartz character watches because I may have 4 or 5 apart at once. I see Hattori PC21 and Miyota 2035 in my dreams.

Yes.... but go slow. Ask me how I drilled a hole clear through my right thumb.

Beautiful work... Who would have known that my prototype watch would spawn more? Or is it the other way around? Anyways, you are a master, and my go-to-guy and friend. Maybe if I get those "29mm ETA dials with gilt" because that's the cream of the crop, and 5 people would advance, we can create a template, and then it's just for more batches to get going?
